Take one 1995 R33 GTR - $45K

 

Take one 1995 R33 GTS-t $19K and then spend $26 in mods on it.

Hrmmmm $26 in mods will buy me 1 bottle of Motul RBF600 brake fluid to flush myself......

yep!! definately a GTR killer!!! :P:D

I would luv to take an R on a hill climb round Mt Glorious/Nebo. Plenty of fun in the T though still. Thats were I think both the T and the R come into their own twisty hills. Not that I'm a hillclimb expert nowhere near just comparing to my previous 4 cars. Point is i think the R would be even better in this (my favourite type) road situation.

Interesting actually .. of course i wouldn't know where you are talking about.. but if say i did :) ... whilst of course the GTR go nicely, its not like the modified GTS-T can't keep up or are left behind. In the end it all comes down to driver skill, and of course having a car you know how it behaves helps.

And this suspension stuff is nonsense, as who really keeps the stock suspension in either a GTR or GTS-T. To me there is no inherant differences in the actual geometry after all (?? correct me if wrong). It can be a VSPEC GTR or whatever it likes, and they come with strut bars and nicer factory suspension.. but upgrading these things on a lowly GTS-T to aftermarket (probably much better than GTR stock) and they start behaving a lot more nicely and being almost as "point and shoot" as a GTR (i'd imagine). The GTR does only pass drive to the front on loss of traction after all...

Make the GTS-T lose as little traction as possible, bump up the torque a little (what people are talking about with the GTR "pushing them back in their seat" is mainly torque I'd imagine.. helped by the twin turbos), eliminate lag as much as possible in the GTS-T coming from just the single turbo and the differences become thinner and thinner.

Or you'd get your mummy to buy you a GTR and then proceed to demolish a bus stop with it....

Either way really.

huh ? how on earth can you smash into a busstop at the drags ? fill me in because i havnt been in these forums for too long just a month or two i think it has been.

methinks it is time this thread be bannished to the pit.. never to be spoken of again

:)

there is the occassional worthwhile post in there somewhere i guess..

its kinda like "wrx vs skyline" except its Skyline guy against other Skyline guy.. hmm :)

your exactly right. and also right about the vanishing part.

Imagine that

Gtst = bmw 318i

GTR = bmw m3

And this is the Bmw "3 Series" forum and the 318i guys are arguing that mods spent on their 318i will make a better m3 .. m3 guys are arguing that 318i could never be as good as the m3!

Now imagine how stupid that would look. How much you would laugh at the idiots..

Thats what most of you guys are looking like now :)

No we are all dancers in gay bars, the pay is rich as..............and since we don't drink, take drugs, or chase loose women, we have heaps of money to spend on fancy internet connections and lots of time to invade specialist forums and corrupt young minds

Jeez, I hope I wasn't frivilous, this topic is way too serious for that.................

HaHaHa

This thread is shit. Normally I would have sprung to the defence of the GTS-t boys, having been a GTS(+t) boy myself. But no matter how fast I went, or how much money I spent, or what other cars I had that were faster (ie my t518z 180) they just weren't a GTR. My Cefiro could pull eyes away from 34GTR's, but it wasn't a GTR. I wanted a GTR. I bought a GTR and I wouldn't change it for the world. They need to be driven hard to be appreciated, those who have seen mine down Nebo will know exactly what I mean.

Why have a different GTS-t set up for 3 styles of motorsport when you can have a 32GTR that can cope with them all? Now that's value for money.

Enough flamage guys ok?

Group Hug.

On a side note, I think this is only the second thread in history I have agreed with Merli. Weird...

This thread isn't about "coping" it's about excelling. The question has been answered - the answer is GTS-t.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
