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

    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
    • Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
    • hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator
    • wow, a completely stock GTR! I've got to admit, I have no idea from what you are describing....do you have  any idea where the "thump" comes from, and are you certain it is the HICAS light not something else like the cat overheat light?
    • nice work, welcome to the world of CAD! fabricating accurately in 3 dimensional space is beyond me....I almost always end up making something more than once...sorry I mean I extensively use prototyping
