Yeah, look at a GTR next to a Gtst and the differences are obvious... look for the flaired guards, if they have them, its a GTR (unless a wide body kit has been put on it, very expensive and rare).. if no flair guards, then its a gtst...

Also i'm get to see a decent GTR kit on a Gtst.. they just look cheap compared to the real GTR ... don't quite look right... If i had a gtst i wouldn't put a GTR kit on it, there are better kits for the gtst. :P

I've pulled up next to a few gtst's with gtr kits/badges, i look at them shaking my head, but they just look dead ahead, won't look at me, hah!

- brakes are brembo (for r33 and r34)

- r32 brakes are cross drilled (unless they were changed)

if you can get a look inside:-

- front torque split gauge in dash for r32, on centre console for r33

- one piece seats for gtr's with hole in the middle, adjustable headrests for others

- 10k tacho for gtr's only upto 9k i think for others

..there should be some more...

what about if someone had a GTS4 ( me ) and had recorded!! atleast 206 4wkw, then would it be ok the put a GTR badge on the back?

Its down to personal opinion and taste, if you like it and want one, go for it.

But at the end of the day, its not a GTR, so I dont see why people would badge it as one, regardless of how much power it makes...

there is a bright orange R32 GTR cough cough i mean gtst going around where i live with GTR bodykit and the badge on the back, and has the plates GTR - 30. when i was driving behind it i noticed that the rear shocks were different to mine ( gts4 and gtr have same struts ). i then raced him and flogged him, pulled up next to him and he wouldn't even look at me.

OK I don't know if this have ever been bought up before but I have to know..

Why do I see people with GTR badges on GTST's. I see it way to many times, you see a nice skyline start having a look at it and then BAM! it is ruined cause it has this GTR badge on it, IT DOESN'T NEED IT!!! Anyone who knows Skylines knows it's not a GTR and anyone who doesn't know Skylines doesn't know what a GTR is. I know this is a bit of a bitch but can some one please clear this up for me, why do people do this???? Oh and if you are one of the people that does this I am not having a go at you (well not much) I just don't understand it.

I raised this same subject with Nat55 about his gtr badge on his gts-t.

He keeps claiming his car is a gtr. You want an answer to your question? VALIDATION. It is like putting prancing horse on a mustang. These people think every-one around them is so stupid and blind that they cannot see the bullshit. I call it low self esteem. And one more thing, as a owner of a gts-t iam quite insulted by the whole gtr badge on gts-t. My last thread got taken off because Nat55 had a boohoo and could not handle the truth.

Cheers :kick:

It is your choice but I still wouldn't put one on, I would be proud that my GTS4 could keep up with or beat a GTR, it shows you have worked on your car

I read this thread yesterday and it so happened that coming home from soccer a guy asked me if it was an original GTR!

Lucky the guy was playing with us and he's an allrite bloke caus I nearly pissed myself!!

Why on earth would i put a badge on it if it wasnt genuine!!

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
