Hi everyone,

I've gotten myself very confused by reading every ones ideas on telling apart the R32 Gtst from the R32 Gts4. SO now I think do I own a Gtst or Gts4?

How would a girl (myself) be able to know the difference by spotting a few give away signs without knowing the chassis shape or mechanical stuff like that?

Here's what I know: the Gtst is turbo and the Gts4 is AWD but

my car is a 1991 RB20 turbo and has HICAS- how confused am I!

Also, the compliance plates have named it a R32 GTR, what the?!

So if there is anyone who can give me some idea what to look for, that would be great.

GTS4 is RB20DET engined, with the AWD system of the GT-R. It has the same basic body shape as the GTSt, not the bulging guards of the GT-R.

The simplest way is the GTS4 does not have a turbo boost gauge in the instrument panel, it has the AWD torque split gauge (top left of instrument panel). GTS4 will have drive shafts to the front wheels - visible looking down from inside the engine bay.

Lol ^^^

the gts4 will have a torque gauge in the top left hand part of the dash cluster, near the speedo.

Also i think ur confusing the hicas ( 4 wheel steering) for the attessa (4 wheel drive)

Yep, totally have all wheel STEER mixed up with all wheel DRIVE!

So it's confirmed I have a Gtst (as originally suspected) given there is a turbo gauge in the top left of dash. That was easy :-)

Thanks everyone.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
