hey just wondering what u guys think would be better for me... i know its hard to say coz its depends on what i want...

i just sold my 93 r33 gtst which was lightly modified just had a full zorst, pod fmic and boost and got a 13.6.

in my next skyline im lookin for something faster mid 12's or even a 11 later on.

i know it would be easy in a 33 gtr but how do 34 gtt's go compared too 33 gtst...

what would it take in mods to get a 34 gtt in mid 12's down the 1/4 mile.

i know with a gtr all ull need is zorst,pods boost and a good clutch

any help would be great... coz i just wnat the power but dont wanan be stuck with the 33 shape again

GTT is the same as your Gtst ( with a little better engine)... so how hard do you think it would of been to get your gtst into the 12/11s?

12's i'm sure you could do, 11's is a big step ... much easier to get to in a GTR... Its up to you

its such a hard decision for me to make... coz i know if i get a 33 gtr it would be easy 12's, ferni - what mods have u got and what times have u got?

but i just wanna know what do u thikn ud need to get a 34 gtt into the mid 12's?

for power gtr will always be better but im into more as 12 sec street car not a 10-11sec drag car...i greatly appreiciate all the help choosing...

also whats the price diff.. lets say 96 s2vspec gtr vs 99 manual turbo gtt??

A little better engine is a bit of an understatement! Much better engine, plus better turbo, better steering, better suspension, better interior, ....

BUT, if you really do want fast times, I suspect to the probelm will be the rear wheel drive - my 255/45 tires will just spin if I'm not to carefull. So while the 4 wheel drive system gives you extra weight, it also gives you extra traction!

']well if you want a gtr minus the r33 shape and you cant afford the r34 gtr, get a cheapish r32 gtr and then do that up. you will have left over change to DMS it up! haha

You think like me. LoL

I just don't like the 33 shape, that's why I got the latest model R32 GTR possible, well it wasnt 'cheapish.'

I would probably go the 33GTR at the end of the day. Remember a GTT is newer but in the end its just an update of a car you already had. You would get used to drving it becasue it would have similar characteristics as the previous model 33 it would become predictable in drviving. And yes I have driven a 98 GTT it was different in looks wise but everything feeled similar just more refined. If you bought a GTR it would be like having a totally new car even though its a 33 because you would have to learn its limits as it would be a totally different drving experience.

Yeah i made the same choice when i bough my GTR, i went for the 33GTR instead of GTT and i don't regret it. personal choice tho.

I have exaust, cam gears and run about 1bar boost, i run about 270rwkw and the one time i did go to the drag strip i ran 12.4... traction was bad on the day, i recon i could knock another couple of 1/10ths off with a better day... but my car is daily driven, and i take it to the track (circuit) a few times a year..

To get a 34GTT into the mid 12's? not sure ask someone whos done it, i don't know of any GTT's in the mid 12s :D for a 33GTR you're probbaly looking 30-50k, GTT not sure guessing around 30-35k?

Spending 40k on a car is a lot of money - you should go check out both GTT and GTR in the flesh and drive both if you can before spending your hard earned $.

yeh its a hard decsion, im purchaseing after winter so ill be test driving a few gtt's and gtr's, thanx for all the replies guys, ive thought about r32 gtr but i just cant see myself degrading to an older car im into more newer cars.

if i had to get a gtr it had to be s2 vspec or nothing..

would there be much differnce in insurence? how bout maintence is gtr alot more to maintain?

thanx again

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
