yeah, from what I know, the rear shock mounts for GTR have a yoke, whereas GTSt have an eyelet and a bolt goes through that...

I have heard that they can be modified to fit, but don't quote me and get another opinion before you go spending you hard earned $$

cheers

You could also convert to GTR rear hubs, for one they are lighter (alloy casting) and then you can use the GTR suspension units, which are more commonly available in the more exotic formats.

If you change the uprights to GTR......

You would also need the GTR drive shafts as the wheel bearings are different.

You would then need the GTR diff as the flanges are different.

Then the GTST tailshaft won't fit as GTR's have CV's not uni joints

So you would need to get a tailshaft made/modified.

Then the speedo would need calibrating as the diff ratios are different

Personally I would buy GTST shocks, saves alot of mucking around.:)

i agree with Sydenykid, i just fited today myself GTST Teins HA to my GTST. Pretty easy, but time consuming. If in anyways its possible to reduce the time i would, not try modifying somthing and wasting your money and time.

But again, we need ppl like Chris Wilson.... as we need to learn of someones mistakes ;) hehe

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
