So beautiful but have been totally put off these financially as they arent even a BCNR. Its just a GTS-4 ECR Chassis dressed up by Autech with GTR gear(AFAIK and have found to believe, Let me know if you know something iron?). And seeing as i dont like my cars to look stock i dont really want something i cant or shouldnt change around much when if i really wanted to have a 4 door GTR i could build one and build it my way with the only thing getting between the real deal and a project being the fact Autech name it a GTR and therefore it is a GTR. Not worth it. That and my ideas have matured beyond fantasies of a car that is very much a let down as this car is. Wouldnt mind a GTS-4 converted to GTR gear with custom widebody guards but that is not a project in mind at least right now.

The Autech GTR sedans run a BCNR33 (Kai) chassis code, not ENR33. They weren't like the Autech 260RS Stageas that ran the same chassis code as the regular wagons.

Saying that an Autech GTR sedan is a dressed up ENR33 sedan is no different to saying an BNR34 GTR is a dressed up ENR34 coupe - they're completely different cars. Autech did the work because Nissan couldn't justify modifying their production line to do the rear guards or the rear seats in GTR trim, I imagine all the rest would have been done at the factory - it's just a different combo of factory parts for Nissan.

Like I said earlier, if anyone wants one, I can make it happen. I've had a couple of workshops say they reckon they could get one complied using a combo of evidence from the R33 GTR coupe and the R33 sedan.

And whats your point? Do you have any idea how much these cars cost in Japan let alone the importing costs on top? Not hard to swap 33 GTR guards over on the front and fabricate rear guards that look better than stock.

No point whatsoever .... i was just trying to clarify the differences ... !

If it's not hard to swap the front, rear guards over, i'd RATHER do it to an R34 but does R34 come in Gts-4 form?

So you know this as irrefutable fact? word to my mother? :P

Even if it is a proper BCNR, if i was to plan on having a 4 door GTR the way i want it, i would go with a GTS-4 from ground up.

Wonder how many are already in the country now.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
