Hey Guys,

Just Wondering if the Gtr is Really that much better than the GTST? Ive herd you can do the 25 to outrun the 26 which I dont believe but maybe their is a GOD out their! :) Some of you think this is a stupid question but I would just like to know other peoples thoughts! Who know's It may well be close to the GTR's performance! :)

You can always make an engine out do another engine, it all just depends how much money you want to spend. So yeah you can make a RB25 more powerfull than a RB26, you can also make a SR20 more powerfull than a RB26, it all just depends on money and what you are willing to put up with.

Putting the power to the ground.....well the GTR has that one over the GTST every day of the week.

Some of you think this is a stupid question...

Not stupid, but talked about on SAU before. You should be highly conscious of your driving style and what you demand out of a car, before you yourself, could answer which one is better for you.

32gtr vs 32gtst - worlds apart

33 or gtr vs 33 or 34 gtst/gtt - can make similar power, but gtr still has superior everything.

drifting your thing? the rear wheeler is for you.

the thing about owning a gtr is you can pretty much be smug in the fact that without much effort you can easily slaughter pretty much anything on the road including the exotics

You're comparing chalk to cheese. GTR and GTST are very different cars.

GTR is always a better performer. Only exception is drifting :)

One plus for the GTST is that modding it is cheaper, but it'll always be trying to catch up with the GTR unless some big dollars go into it.

this is an intresting question. i curently have 250rwk in my 33 gtst and i think would do quite well against a gtr with same power on a rolling run.

off the lights the gtst dosent stand a chance though

the gtr is also going to be better if its wet, or anything that resembls a corner and even uneaven road surface.

Yeah nothing compares to a full on GTR launch...but I guarantee if you keep the ass of the gtst soft and spend some good money on tyres they'll hook up off the line just fine.

Problem I see with many gtst's is the owner. They pump $$ into horsepower then skimp on tyres, makes no sense at all.

R33GOD, u must be insane to think u could take on a gtr of similar power...

similar power isnt what allows u to win.. its how that power gets down and delivered that matters.. i ran a 230rwkw s14 when my gtr was only makin around 200awkw... we did both rolling and off the line

i slaughtered it. not just beat it.. i slaughtered it.

why?? probably because i had a shitload more torque than he did

u dont see same 1/4 figures from similarly powered vehicles either... i could easily reel off an 11sec pass... ud struggle to get 12s because of traction. even ur trap speed will be much lower...

2 completely different cars.

i dont wheelspin on a rolling run :)

but u cant automatically assume the gtst isnt as good on the run. just dont understand... i have 630nm torque at the fly, and aren't the gtst's much lighter than a 33 gtr?

Edited by R33GOD

they are lighter... but so is a s14.. even lighter still and 630nm @ flywheel??? cool

ive got 813nm @ wheels

i think thou, the reason for the torque levels isnt so much the capacity, although it does play a lil part, its the amount of air the twins flow compared to ur one single... get me?? like could be similar PSI but in actual air volume, its greater on a twin.

thats all i can come up with

ok. are you running 250rwk though? cause i stated similiar power

i think we're gettin off topic

i think in almost any situation except driftin lol the gtr is far superior

it has better brakes, better handling, better tractabilty, greater potential, better seats lol

it all depends what u want from a car... ive always loved the gtr, but i never bought one earlier (got mine in august) because its not what i wanted yet... i had to give other cars a go first

p.s: sorry that 813 was when i made 287kw... @ around 250kw which is only 30kw less, id probably have over 700nm @ wheels

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
