Do you think these cars are worth it or not???

I currently have a 93 r33 gts with zorst, pod filter, unichip,extractors and tinted windows, and verry sweet mags...

is a gts-4 a better car, or is mine better?...i dont care so much about awd weighing it down, as it would be that much difference!!!

So what do you people think???

The gts-4 im looking at i think is like a 94 model, with 400r kit( i think)

ok... I used to own one of R33 GTS-4

Its Great car to move around but... its missing a turbo.

if you want to fully RWD than stick with R33 GTS you will have more power due to no 4WD train.

R33 GTS-4 is heavier and less powered

If you live where high rainfall like QLD. then its very useful in the winter and rainy days.

if you are into drifting then stick with GTS RWD.

also it cost arms and legs for conversion, but it can be done :D

if you're going to spend a lot of money doing it up, im sure the RB25DET engine swap would be more practical.

I would go for a R33 GTST over a GTS4 though.

My options are r33 gts(what i have now)

r33 gts-4

Turbo is not a questian right now...as im on my p's

but as soon as i can legaly get turbo i will be so the gts-4 would be better then?

Listen to other people SAVE Your moeny and get a old donga... VN or VX

what ever and wait for your P to get off then

buy a GTST or GTR later...

once you buy a skyline in P's INSURANCE cost you arms and legs and service too...

I know you think WTF but.. skyline aint such good 1st P car.. IMHO

Also remember the GTS-4 isnt AWD like a WRX etc

The 4 wheel drive is attessa computed 4wd, same as GTR drivetrain.

Front wheels are only active when the rears are spinning.

Computer controlled 4WD mode as apposed to AWD where all wheels constantly drive

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆

      remote oil cooler hose size, 8,10 or an12?

      Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need.

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
