yeah the engine is an rb20det.

the driveline is different, the attessa is not on the GTS4, the interior is different, really the only similarity is the fact that they are both skylines and are 4wd

That is not entirely correct, apart from the obvious engine, gearbox, guards, bodykit, intercooler, fuel pump, interior etc the R32 GTS4 has a lot of things in common to the R32 GTR. These are the things that I have noticed: CV driveshafts are the same, rear Diff cradleand K frame is identical, the layout of the drivetrain is identical, the suspension although being different spring rate and dampening rate they are identical in design, GTS4's do have the attessa system (including G-force sensors) and the two systems will work perfectly if connected together it's only the V-spec's that have the different faster attessa e-ts pro + active LSD system in the 32's, It is only the front brakes that are different on the GTS4 the front rotors and calipers are different, with a smaller in dia master cylinder and the firewall has a recess for a boosted clutch on the GTR, these are different on the GTS4/GTS-t and the boosted clutch wont fit without major modification, the fuel tank is different as the GTR one is plastic with a better baffle setup and is bigger than the GTS4/GTS-t steel one, the intercooler plumbing is different and would require a hole to be cut on the drivers side for the plenum to intercooler pipe and the pasenger side one would need to be enlarged to fit the 80mm pipe, and the brackets for the FMIC aren't there of course.

They both have the same hicas system design but the GTR has super hicas and there is 4 different wiring looms between the GTR/GTS4 models these are variables of the auto/manual with or without front active spoiler, the auto models having no clutch input on the hicas system of course. All the GTR/GTS4 models seem to have the same quick-responce ABS system as it goes hand in hand with the attessa system with the wheel speed sensors.

Nissan made a lot of things the same on the two models to save manufaturing and design costs. You only really find the difference when you have both models and you try to mix and match. There is probably more but I can't remember them all sorry.

    • Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4
    • I prefer it with those wheels (sacrilege?) 馃構 Here's a photo of a fully original one for reference. The price is $350K....
    • I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
    • This. They would need some tricky maneouvering to keep the income out of the country (the US). Which isn't helpful if that's where you want the income to end up.
