I had to wait till my 40's before I got my dream GT-R.

Be proud of the GTST - its a great car and deserves to be recognised as such. We all start somewhere.

Have fun with it and heed the advice - "Don't buy a GT-R unless you can afford two"*

Cheers

You have a rwd that has the potential for high power, its not an easy car to drive fast, the gtr on the other hand is alot easier to handle in my opinion, i drove a std gtr flat to the floor on a track and thought it was sasy as, i cant drive my gtst flat to the floor without my full attention...

Dont just be proud of your gtst but know that its an entirely different car with its own abilities and attributes.

High powered rwd is the animal that bites back hard, it takes real skill to handle them

I think it's ok if it makes you happy.

But don't do what I've seen a few years ago some guy badged a white gtst a gtr trying to sell it as a real gtr even when the Vin plate said gtst.

He put a rb26 in it but keep the RWD system

so if you ever try selling you could re-badge gtst or advise the new owner to be, of what you have done.

Just some courtesy :D

      To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...

      Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.

      Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
