60km both second. He had proxy 888 265 all way round. I just have more than 1000rpm response than him. His car is actually going for a 10 soon with around 425awkw.

Obviously if he launches it its bye bye for me lol

my GTST with GT35 will let go in 3rd at anything under 100km/h if i ramp the boost on hard.

i take it you have never been in a 300+kw GTST

Really? Ive got a fair bit of power, not 300, but the only times I can brake traction are between shifts(its not just a chirp, it breaks) and all throughout first gear and 2nd if I don't let it regain traction after the shift. It would be pretty awesome if I could be off throttle in 3rd gear then plant it just to have the wheels spin lol. I NEED MORE POWER. What tires and suspension do you use? My suspension isn't hard and has some squat in it to help give traction and my tires are fat 595's.

Gonna assume that's the make and not the width blink.gif

The main reason why he would lose traction in third is because of the 3540 having more lag and the boost delivery isnt as linear as to probably your turbo and with a 3540 on a rb25 its like all the boost comes on at once and so it goes nuts lol.

I had those 595 that were 265 wide and I'd spin them up easy in second gear with 285 rwkw when running the Gtr in rear wheel drive..

Like stated before it has more to do with the power delivery, I had nismo gt lemans turbos that were plain bearing and would lag then come on hard, where as my mates -9 turbos with 280 rwkw doesn't feel as violent comin onto boost

In the wet I could spin all 4 265 down the highway in second :)

Yeah my dads old 350rwkw GTSt could light up the tyres at 120-130kph if you wanted it to, but wouldn't spin at all when he used proper throttle control not just "mash the go pedal"

Highly untrue. GTR lags like dog balls. Imagine a 10 second Gtr with -5 turbos doing a 60k roll race. Wait I Did this! My r33 gtst 280rwkw vs r32 Gtr 385rwkw. 60k roll. I maxed my speedo b4 he caught up. A 10 sec GTR is nothing without the launch. You GTR fanboys crack me up :P

Get off the crack pipe! How am I a GTR fanboy when I own a fast Gts-t?

I have owned both (fast GTR and fast Gts-t) and I can tell you the only thing that could keep up with the GTR at low speed was other GTR's and maybe from 60km/hr a quick evo could keep up in 2nd, third was game over.

Take your slow Gts-t and go home...

PS. This is from around 60-70km/hr in my old GTR, I bet you can keep up >_<

You said it in one,

A gtr is fast (very fast) and awesome, but there's still times when I would love to have a 300kw gtst for the wheel spinning sideways action. Plus gtst are much cheaper to run and maintain. Before I get fanboyed I built a 300kw gtst from stock and now own a 300kw gtr.

So sinista gtr, how does a 300awkw gtr compare with the slow 300rwkw gtst, i mean at normal road speeds and sensible driving except those rare moments when u just wana zap past for a few seconds or do a spirited stab of the pedal coming onto an empty motorway on-ramp or say 60-120??

Sensible driving, unless you took off like a granny, 1st gear in a high powered gtst is useless as soon as it comes onto boost it's wheel spin and same with second. In the rain.... Omg you have absolutely no chance of getting near boost. The gtst is quick don't get me wrong, but when it comes onto boost say on the on ramp like you said from 60 or 80 you just wait to correct the steering wheel if it completely breaks traction or it's twitchy fighting for grip.

The gtr just has a feeling of immense power and torque and when you get on the go pedal hard or soft there is no worries about grip. You have to look ahead to see how far the car is ahead of you as it just picks up speed über quick.

The gtr is able to use its power on all of its range and gears without issues to be quick, the gtst is fast once you get past the looseness and wheel spin.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
