Gt Badges - What's The Difference

[Nimmo]

Quick stupid question,

What is the go with the red and blue GT badges, I have heard the red are for turbo models is this true? I have a R33 with an RB25DET but have the blue badge (it's the origional engine so I'm guessing the previous owner must have swapped the badges if that's the case red been for turbo models).

Good question...My old R32 GTS4 came with the Blue badges. So I am not really sure either what the colour difference means

[DRD-00F]

Pretty darn certain that red is turbo, blue is non turbo

you can swap them though, it's not difficult. Tinks had a 40th anniversery GTST with blue ones on but the previous owner had changed them.

I remember seeing yellow ones... on eBay.

That's what I was thinking, (previous owner must have changed them)

I don't think I could be bothered changing them though, I think the blue badge on a silver car looks better then the red badge on silver.

Thanks,

I've seen those yellow ones also, on ebay that is; never on a car though

blue is older model , red is later model

My R33 is a 1997 model, I thought they finished making them in 98 so it's really an old model.

Red = Turbo

Blue = Naturally Aspirated

Any differences would either be a badge swap or engine swap.

Thanks everyone for clearing that up, looks like what I had thought all along the badges were swapped since the engine is the original.

Hardly a silly question man.....always thought on this as you did.

Looking forward to more 'edumicated' responses!!

Anyone seen a green one?......I think they're 'Hydrogen' or sumtin. (silly face icon goes here)

mines silver,did the paint come off or did some come with silver?

[Darkplague]

Blue one side red the other.

[Nimmo]

Blue one side red the other.

You do that yourself or was it already like it when you bought the car?.

The siver badge on the r32 gtst "series 1" is for the type m.

happened to me... originally had blue ones on my car... badges got nicked...but mine's a turbo so put red ones on

I never even thought of that but it wouldn't suprise me at all if that was the deal.
