i live in australia and i am about to buy my first skyline but i dont know which 1 to buy. i can get my hands on a r32 gts4_t or and r33 gtst.

they are both stock and have 80,000kms on them. which is better?? how fast is the r32 gts4_t compared to stock r33 gtst?

plz give me ur info on these if possible

i think the r33gtst will be faster, but there's so many more advantages that i believe the gts4 has:

- better tracton allowing for better takeoff's and better drivability in the wet

- that lovely high revving rb20 :)

- better shape in my opinion (baby bro of the ORIGINAL godzilla!)

the r32 gts4 is heavier than the r32 gtst making it probably about the same weight of the r33gtst but the better launches put it in front before the rb25 will help the r33 pull it back into contention

good luck with the purchase!

Waz.

Stock it will do high 13s

Stock...

I would say more like 14.8

the gts4 is slower then the r32 gtst when stock due to the extra weight of the 4wd.

I had an r32gts4.. it was the best car ever.. no1 could beat me from the line :)

so yeah.. get the gts4 for sure!

make sure you mod it tho.. they are quite slow when stock.

A nice R32 with big tyres hanging out the arse end with stock height looks awesome me thinx. :)

There's an R32 GTR getting around whith what looks like 295's on the rear. They are absolutely massive.

Same with the R33's. Stock height with a set of big arsed 265-275's and they look grunty as. When you lower them it hides the tyres but. :D

Nar buddy,

Its just elongating the bolt up holes for the wastegate actuator. Pull it back on its self (towards the radiator) do up the bolts and you have reduced travel of the wastegate.

After a couple of WOTS and slight adjustments you have it making what boost you want. :P

    • FWIW, I've aerated oil, and cams snapped. You can figure out the rest 🥲
    • Depending on the hose, sometimes engine out is the easiest option  
    • Get an inspection camera up there. 
    • Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.
