its quite simple, nissans goal for the GTR was coming up with a homolgated street vehicle that could be successfully raced with minor modifications.

LOL...I wasnt aware that Grp A Touring cars was production car racing :P

They had far more then minor modifications...but i know what you mean.

Its up to the individual...i would love to have GTR toy car, but there is no way i could afford to do what i like to do with my car if i owned a GTR...so it will be different for everyone.

I dont think there is any real argument... the GTR is simply the better car.

Personally i could never own an R34 GTR, having seen the amount of attention they attract, i just couldnt own it....and i have little brother syndrome, i like trying to show up the bigger brothers, may only happen once in a lifetime, but me and my 2.0L will take that moment to my grave :P

But if you ask any owner of a GTR they will tell you that it's a money pit.

ask any owner of a Nissan Skyline and they will tell you its a money pit... not maintance wise but eventually that modifying bug hits you and your pockets are the first thing that gets in infected :)

:lol: not doubting it **JaR**! But GTST owners are better off than GTR owners when it comes to modifying.

I heard you have to be careful if changing the rims with a GTR because it screws with the HICAS/ATTESSA is that true?

lol yeah that i'll agree with, simply coz its got a GTR badge prices are nuts :(

i dunno about rim sizes affecting hicas/attessa?? wouldnt changing rim sizes only affect the speedo reading like on any other car?

yes the 4wd system goes funny when the wheels are not same size allround

Yes i agree GTR's are a money pit..

there is so much u can do to these things that make it go bezerk

i have driven 32/33/34 GTST'GTT/GTR's

there is no doubt that the GTR is a superior allround car.

responds extremely well to basic tune ups.

but as every1 says breaking a RB26 is what us GTR owners fear the most

Break a RB20/25 ??? easy just go out and buy another 1

break a RB26????? not as simple for starters they cost 6-7 G's just the engine it self no turbos and add ons etc

but in the end

i'll never buy a GTST unless it was a 4 door :(

    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
