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?

no... sounds like you are over estiamting.

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

Ok ill try one more time.........

I currently have a car...it is a 93 r33 gts but i was looking at mabe getting a r33 gts-4 insted, so therefor selling my car!!!

so you understand now?

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

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
