The 32 GTS-4 weighs ALOT more than the 32 GTSt.... specs I have indicate the difference is as much as 130kg. Even if thats exaggerated and the difference is only 50kg.... its still alot.

The GTS-4 might be alot rarer, but the GTSt is no doubt the quicker.

PS: who cares whether a 32 or 33 is better, theyre all good!

This is one of those arguments that goes around every so often.

And it's because none of use can afford the R34 M-Spec Nur II we really want.

I don't think weight is such a great issue. I just had my car weighed and it was 1,380kg on the dot just as the shipping company said. I suspect there has been some lightening work somewhere as this is not normal as it is pretty well loaded.

My goal is 245kW at the crank, maybe 200rwkW. This is the 330hp that the BMW M3 can do at the crank.

I'm pretty sure this is available with the OEM ceramic turbo. But what it came down to is what I could afford, what I wanted without going overboard in engine mods and what I felt was attractive. I like the last of the '95 Series 1 Skylines...

By the same token I like the r33 GT-R V-Spec II and this is ultimately what I want even though I may be able to afford an r34... I just like the way the "33" looks.

Inanst. What I mean is when the ECU is left stock.

Fit a FMIC to a Stock ecu R33 and you will notice an improvement over the stock ecu running 11psi or what ever.

Do the same to a R32 and you won't seem to pick up much power compared to the R33.

GTS4 is slower stock for stock, and perhaps with minor mods.

Once you get into big mods ie a bigger turbo etc it will be quicker in a straight line with the added benefit of traction.

For instance kabab did a 60 footer of 2.1 sec in his R32 GTSt with exhaust/boost on a 14.2 sec run... I dont see a GTS4 pulling any quicker than that with the extra weight... maybe a 2.0 or 1.9 sec 60 footer is possible.. but MPH will be down

davidpandev that is true in theory but it isn't quick enough to make a difference.

I've sat next to a R33 GTR with a 5000rpm launch with my 2wd (I launched at 4000rpm).

I ended up in front all the way through to 4th where we backed off.

All comes down to tyres, road surface and grip. If it spins buy better tyres. That is whatsisnames motto I guess. 257rwkw.

A GTS4 with exhaust stock IC and 12psi wouldn't hang in front of a GTR.

At the time that is what I was running 12psi, fuel pressure reg bleed kit, exhaust and stock IC and making 152rwkw.

Speaking of R32 and R33 GTSTs does anybody know the factory performance figures (0-100km/h and 0-400m) for these cars when stock and what sort of power they have at the wheels???

Just interested to know what i have to start with...

Additionally, what sort of gain to FMIC give power wise??

I saw a site that had factory specs.

Apparently the R33 is 6.2 0-100 and 14.2.

I can't remember the 0-100 for the R32 but the 1/4 is 14.3.

For the GTST that is. The GTS4 R32 is slightly slower.

With regards to a FMIC giving you free power on a R32 it wont.

R33 for some reason yes don't know why but R32 no. :D

The only difference you will notice is better performance when hammering it through the hills. I used to notice the car get slightly slower as the stock IC got heatsoaked I guess.

It also allows you to run more boost so i guess it does give you more power in a way.

I'm running 16psi on the stock turbo and have been now for some time without problems.

If its a gtr then out of r32/33 id go r32.

Comparing gtst I would go r33 over 32.

Comparing an r32 GTR with an r34GTT? For a similar amount of money I chose the r34. IMO, a much nicer place to be inside the cabin, more modern, newer car, less kms for $, [yes i know mark skaife has one with less than 15,000kms on the clock but how much would it cost?]. It is a nicer / smoother drive, very similar power from the factory and its not a 10 year old car [i already had a 10 yo and i wanted something much newer].

If money wasnt an issue then give me the NUR spec :(

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
