they dont match up wit skylines. skylines are bigger and feel better to drive.

engine wise im not to sure but skylines have a very good quality rb in it :D

gti-rs are called mini godzillaz, "mini" so u know u cant fit ppl in the back and barely have any room for anything,

a stock GTi-R would completely RIP a GTS-T off the line..

mainly because of power to weight...

sure.. because of that, you pay for interior space... but with slight mods.. you can get power...

and also.. its 4wd.. so u get more traction :D

we imported a GTi-R Dakar. We didnt even know it was one until the boss went to japan and had a look at it. Didnt cost him much and he loves it. If u'r a true fan of speed then this is the one but the normal GTi-Rs are better in my eyes as they have power windows and all the good stuff the Dakar has now power options at all. But does have a stock roll cage.

The back isnt to bad in a gtir. Not alot worse than a 2 door skyline anyway and they have heaps and heaps of room when u fold the back seats down. My friend who has one carts around half his band equipment in his and i can hardly fit a suitcase in my r33 so i dont know how you can say they dont have room for anything.

Witha GTiR try to get a late moded. 93-94 and look for one that seems to have legit low k's. A gtir that has had a hard life or 3 extra years of a hard life (they have all had hard lifes) can be alot or trouble and the extra 3 years of wear will show. As always though you get what you pay for.

try get 4 ppl around town in one of them.. :( you will notice wat i mean.. at least not as bad in the back of a supra tho

but honestly... if you buy one of those cars, putting people in the back isnt exactly your biggest concern..

cars with 2 doors were built to suit 2 people, even though they have seats in the back... it aint fun being in there..

the best thing to do it just rip out the seats and put in a couple of subbies :D

another Hurdle at the moment is trying to get a plate if you were wanting to import you'r self. We had 10 plates reserved but we have used them all now. The 2 guys wh can comply them have sold out of there plates already. Will have to wait until nealy then end of this year till 1 plate is availbe.

lasttemptation: gtst feels better to drive than a gtir? are you smoking crack?

If he is then im smoking too,

I agree,

I dont think NISSAN intended for the GTiR to be a revelation in power or speed but rather a cheap, reliable and performance orientated vehicle for anyone.

They are ok, i dont understand why theres been 10 threads on 'whats the best gtir' 'how fast is a stock gtir' 'how much .. etc etc in the last few weeks tho

they have more power than 180s and silvias because they got quad throttle bodies

overall they are a good base, the SR20DET is a great engine

but at the end of the day, some say a car is an extension of your manlyhood

and a hatchback just dont cut it for me

If i bought one, ide make it a full track car and not register etc

      They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.

      I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.

      Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?

      https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.

      Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.
