ive driven a fair few different model skyline's.....and i own a GTS-4 so i may be biased but i would never choose a GTS-t over the -4. they have many similarities to the GTR but without the hot price tag. And the good thing about the R32's is that the 4WD is run by a fuse so a switch can be hooked up easily to swap from rear wheel drive to 4WD instantly. good for drifting and racing. all round winner in my eyes.

***cheers***

Hi, the 4wd system operates the same - it is Attessa, i.e. uses loss of traction and g-force sensors to activate 4wd. The V-spec and maybe normal GTR 4WD may come on faster as the car has more power to cope with when it loses traction.

Reliability is good, get the car checked out by someone who knows GTRS/GTS4's.

Parts arent too bad, as parts for GTR are fairly common these days. Good thing about parts is that it is very similar to GTR and as NIssan in Australia has to stock the GTR parts it means any parts you have to get from Nissan that are the same as the gtr dont attract freight charges.

When you are looking for high performance parts it is easier to get them for a GTR than a GTST, sometimes parts makers dont do the GTST but they DO do the GTR.

RB20DET is a good engine and can handle hard driving if serviced regularly and if modified - done properly!

On a dry track at QLD raceway I was even with a GTST which was stock like mine, I was handicapped by the extra weight and him by loss of traction. If it had been wet...

They can do with a bit of extra power as the 'competition' these days has got greater Kw, they finally caught up.

tried against some mates cars, mine stock 1990 GTS4 except for 3 inch cat back exhaust.

Against a supercharged 3.8 holden commodore(2000) model, I got beaten from start(started on 1500 rpm - got jumped!), from rolling start was neck and neck, come to a corner and its all over.

against a 220 kw v8 ss auto (2001) from standing start right on his butt, he could not pull away.

I am happy with the performance until I get in my friends GTR!

I know a guy on skylines downunder who has a GTS4 with 280 kw from his RB20det - lots of mods and lotsa $$$

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
