Okay guys,

it is something that bothers us all as per Robin's post here

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=63254

and as per James suggestion in the same post, I have decided to start up a GTR Badge on a GTS/T Shame file.

Basically the way it goes is as you see these abominations around town or on another site, post the pic here for everyone to see.

Hopefully we can shame these people into removing the badge.

p.s to those who own a monster GTST that is as fast as a GTR or faster and think that gives them the right to have the badge, show some pride in your achievement. It is no small thing to get a GTST to be like that and you will get a lot more respect for it than whacking a dodgy badge on your car.

if I have have HCR on the chasis plate - is it a GTR?

if I have a GTR bodykit on my car - is it a GTR?

if I have a GTR badge on my car - is it a GTR?

if I have GTR rims on my car - is it a GTR?

if a GTR owner did a turd on my car - would it be a GTR?

I think you will find.. the resounding answer to all of these is, it's still not a GTR..

Even though these wouldn't make one's car a GTR, it's hardly a "Shame" to have these exterior improvements.

I think what he is saying that those people are using those add-on's as an excuse to put a GTR badge on their car, not that there is anything wrong with the add-on's themselves.

nexus that red one u posted a pic on i saw the other night in surfers he pulled up next to me and his mates go gtr and reved the engine but before i could even check to c f it was one they light had changed and they left lol.

Next time i c them im going to get in first

Chris it was a great idea to start the discusion regarding GTR badges i thought i was the only 1 who thought its just wrong and sad to put GTR badges on a GTST, ill have a camera with me from now on, so by the end of the week we'll need a new file server cause theres just so many fake GTR's around!

after driving along on a sunday i started to relize just how many fake GTR's there are, and some1 has to put a stop to this, its wrong! (thats why i started my thread)

either these badges are sold in bulk daily like bread or GTR owners around australia have had their badges taken.

I dont mind if the driver admits and says its a GTST but to carry on and make it as it actually is a GTR by having a bodykit, spoiler, engine or twin turbos...., its just wrong!

After i had an argument with some1 the other night regarding this i could not wait to get home and start this thread, this gtst owner put a twin turbo set up on his rb25, and him and his friends who had honestly no clue what a gtr is went along with it claiming if u add a twin turbo set up on a gtst the car magicly becomes a GTR, wow thats a nice trick, so i asked what u call a gtr with a single turbo conversion? a gtst i dont think so!

Please if u have GTR badges on your skylines i dont care but DONT claim and try to tell others its a GTR...! its not!

    • Well, in the same way that you can't tell any SUV from any manufacturer in any size category from any other one, "sports" coupes now all look identical. Stand back and squint your eyes and the Supra and the 400Z and the GR/BRZ things all look the same. I was just thinking last night, when sitting behind a Subaru CrossTrek, that I have no idea what it is, how it differs from an XV, or a Forester, or an Outback, or anything else Subaru offer, and I couldn't tell if it was supposed to be small, medium or large. I contrasted that to the good old days, where a HQ Kingswood had familial similarities to an LJ Torana, but there is no way that you could confuse them, and how a bit later, the HX Kinger and the concurrent Torana and the Gemini all had familial similarities, but you still could not confuse them. Ditto the ugly Fords and Chryslers of the era. But now, a RAV4 looks like a Kluger, looks like a Yaris/Cross/whatever they're calling those stupid f**king things, looks like every other Toyota that's not a Camry/Corolla sedan.
    • The Prelude doesn't look that bad without all that lens distortion in those pics. Makes it look disproportionate when it isn't. Actually I kind of liked it at the Osaka Auto Messe earlier this year. 
    • Pour in the highest octane, non-ethanol fuel you can get and see if the readout changes. If it's dead bang on 11% then I would question the sensor. Another quick test, just take it out and run normal (in an american accent) gas-o-line through it and see if the sampled ethanol or lack of changes.   United E85 here in the land of drop bears does vary a bit, I've had as high as E87 (could be water in their tanks too, who knows)
