Hi everybody, could someone tell what the difference between a GTR and a GTS4 is, other than the engine obviously? eg; how different is the driveline components like diff's, driveshaft's, gearbox etc.

Assuming we're talking R32 here....

Gearbox is the same (shhh...don't tell anyone else :) )

R200 diff is used in both, so strength is the same, but ratio is different (I think)

Rear drive shafts are different in diameter where they pass through the hubs (someone doing a conversion had a post on that one recently).

OK hopefully this should stop this question being asked every 5 days.

Sections that are different:

Engine and Transmission Mounting

Clutch Cover, Disc and Release Parts

Clutch Piping (GTR and GTSt share the same parts though)

Clutch Master Cylinder

Rear Final Drive

Brake Servo & Servo Control

Power Steering Pump Mounting

Power Steering Piping

Common Sections:

Clutch Operating Cylinder

Manual Transmission, Transaxle and fitting

Transmission Case & Clutch Release

Transmission Gear

Speedometer Pinion

Transmission Shift Control

Transmission Control & Linkage (only 4WD HICAS models)

Transfer Control Parts (ETS model)

Propeller Shaft

Front Final Drive

Final Drive Oil Cooler & Tube

Breather Piping

Front Drive Shaft

Front Axle

Front Suspension

Rear Axle

Rear Suspension

Front Brake

Rear Brake

Parking Brake Control

Brake Master Cylinder (although they vary depending on what year car they came on... ie a 89 GTR will have a different one to a 92 GTS4, but the same as an 89 GTS4)

Brake Piping & Control (as above with the years)

Brake & Clutch Pedal

Anti Skid Control

Steering Gear Mounting

Steering Column

Power Steering Pump

Power Steering Gear

Transfer Assembly & Fitting

Transfer Case

Dunno about these:

Transfer Gear

Rear Drive Shaft

Transfer Shift Lever, Fork & Control

Hope that helps...

    • 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
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
