I just don't really get it... I mean, I have a descent R33 GTS-T at the moment. It handles great and has very descent power. My next upgrade next year or so would be a R34GTR.

I know some people who spend so much money making their GTS-T into a GTR or even more... why? Just buy a GTR?

To be honest, I was thinking of doing a RB26DETT implant myself... but in the end, decided against it... like UWISSH send... who spend the cash when we can upgrade to another plantform?

I see where you are coming from, but some ppl prefer RWD.

Some ppl like to drift, but I mean, some ppl like Keiichi Tsuchiya can drift 4WD.

Some ppl do it as a hobby and like to make a 'Sleeper' car.

Some ppl perfer the handling of RWD.

In fairness to the owner, the GTS-R logo was used by a number of aftermarket tuners in Japan who sought to re-create a modern version of the R31 version, and putting an RB26 into a GTS-t would make sense in that regard.

It's not an official version, but I suspect the owner genuinely believes it's something more special than what it is, rather than being outrightly deceptive. Super Autobacs is the Japanese equivalent of Autobahn.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
