Thats ok, if you still cant find it the mounting points are on the rear wishbones by memmory. Its hard to picture where is would go because the swaybar link is a stright cylindrical piece of metal inlike most other links, you need nuts either side that go through the wishbone in the rear . But if you get whiteline they change the design and you need to buy there links to make it suit, its a lot better than the stock rear sway bar, because the design changes the whole way the sway bar looks and fits.

if your after info on GTS4 box check this:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/370991-r33-gts4-na-box-to-handle-250kwatw/page__p__5924403__fromsearch__1#entry5924403

will give you some solid info ;)

gtst, gtr, stagea, gts4 all have the same subframe so most bits n pieces are interchangeble.

1st 2nd is definately shorter, 3rd is slighty shorter and 4th and 5th pretty much same, feels absolutely fine apart from the common weak synchro issues but soon as i used some redline lw sp that fixed it up pretty good.

hey guys, rather then starting new thread...

Im just in the process of putting r33 gts4 runing gear into a gtst shell. I know its easier to start off with RWD components, but I already have these in the shed, so...

Ive just removed the RWD sump and started to remove the gts4 sump, the bolts are much largeron gts4 ? Can i just bolt up the rwd sump to the awd block and which bolts ?

Also, if i just drop the front driveshaft, can i drive the car aroud safely in RWD ?

Can I use the gtst tailshaft and diff ?

Anything else to look out for ?

Help greatly appreciated. thanks guys

no one has a clue because no one has done it......main reason because its pointless....

Thanks for your input :)

sumps seem to line up perfectly, just took them off, havent had a chance to bolt it up yet :)

Now just need to confirm if i can run the gearbox with the front driveshaft dropped off, without any issues ?

Edited by KISIN

I have rebuilt GTS-4's engines, diffs, gearboxes BLA BLA and how did you get them to line up????????????????

They are no where near the same shape as the block? The GTS-4\GTR block petrudes out where the diff is and it has 4 or 5 different styles bolts where the RWD is just rectangle and uses 30 of the same bolts.......

They will fit but they are not the same 270CC like the NA ones they are about 370CC

I'm thinking of getting a gts4 , what's some basic/cheap things that I could do to improve it's performance ??

Full service of everything, wider/better tyres, suspension, brakes.

Build driving experience, get full license.

Sell it and get whatever you want.

If by that stage you've done all that stuff and had it for three years and still want to sell it... Well sir you obviously don't love your car

    • Yeah, thumbsup from me. The distant shot of the bay just looks same-same as before.
    • Dad had a court case drag out with them from 1998 to 2004. He was in a not at fault accident, NRMA were the ones who covered the other person. They tried to blame his neck injuries on the fact he'd had an injury in 1981 on his extreme lower back where he slipped a single disc right near the bottom. Had been all cleared from that injury for years. This accident destroyed his shoulder, and f**ked a heap of discs in his neck, and he still has major problems with it to this day. Sarah's sister while on her L plates had a small Suzuki Alto, she had stopped to give way to an ambulance, and someone changed lanes behind her because there lane was also slowing, and rear ended her at 80km/h. (She had been stopped for a few seconds already too!). Car was completely f**kED. NRMA sent the vehicle around to 3 different workshops as they kept claiming "We believe it can be repaired, and not written off, we just need to find the correct workshop". It took 3 months, and a lot of arguing before they'd concede and wrote it and paid out. About two years later her sister had a Lancer, someone pulled out of a stop sign without stopping (in an 80 zone). Her sister swerved, hit the front of the other persons car (Instead of dead t-boning the drivers door), which ramped her Lancer, and made it roll multiple times down the road. It hit every panel on the way through. Her sister had slid her self out of the car, and remembers the ambos walking to the accident (They'd been sitting at a set of lights just down the road and witnessed it) and they were saying "Well, this ones going to be a fatality, no way you can walk away from that". Well, she did. And then NRMA sent two assessors out to look at the car, both of which wrote it off. They tried to send another assessor out, except a HUGE uproar was raised, and they FINALLY paid it out. That was on a car, that had damage to EVERY panel, you could see from 100m away the whole car was also twisted, roof bowed etc. Nah, we'll try get out of needing to payout on a $10,000 car... Her sister ended up with major shoulder reconstructive surgery being required, and was permanently limited in her ability to do her job as a nurse after that, as she can't (And was told before surgery too this would be guaranteed to happen) regain full strength in that shoulder. However, there was no choice to not have it, as she could barely use her arm, which was her dominant one, and was in near constant major pain. (And she's the type of person that would try and walk off a broken leg!) NRMA did the biggest run around on the personal injury side too for about 18 months, even to the point of trying to put 100% blame of the accident on Sarah's sister, even though the other driver admitted she didn't look, and didn't stop, and was charged by the police. Sarah used to have a Barina insured with them. It was a policy setup, paid all 12 months in advance. At the end of the 12 months, Sarah was living with me, I reviewed the renewal, it clearly stated "If you do nothing, your policy will cease on XYZ date". We did nothing, as we moved her insurance in with all of mine and I was with Shannons. We find out 10 months later, NRMA decided, because he DAD had a car insurance policy at the same address as what Sarah's mailing address was (Garaged address had been changed), that they'd put Sarah's (What should have been non existent policy) onto her Dad's month to month charges on his credit card. We had to jump through hoops, to get a refund. They didn't care that we actually found the letter that said "If you do nothing, your policy will cease" they made us prove we had NON COMPULSORY insurance else where before they'd issue the refund, and after they agreed to the refund, it still took another 6 weeks and 3 more phone calls for them to actually process it. They also had two insurance claims from storm damage, and they were an absolute cluster to get resolved as well (one vehicle, one house). Some how, up until about 3 years ago, her parents were still loyal to NRMA too, and we were like "How the hell are you so loyal to staying with them, when other places are so much cheaper, and they've f**ked you over every time you've ever had to make a claim?"
    • I got the four AN10 fitting welded up to the cam covers and started up making the head to sump breather/drain lines. The front passenger side cover I used a 45 up top and a 90 at the bottom into the stock VCT head drain spot (3/4" BPST to AN10 adapter) thats unused on the RB25DET NEO with some speedflow flame shield to protect it from the manifolds heat.   back passenger side was a 90 up top with some flame shield and 45 at the sump end. The rear drivers is 45 at both ends   the front drivers fitting is capped off for now but ready to go if i want to try moving the breathers around. I was told by the fabricator to leave all the welds raw for now to make sure there are no pin hole leaks. A lot of cleaning up, re bundling looms and degreasing to go as well as final assembly on the cam cover baffles. The first real test will be 28th March at a Circuit event. added complexity and more spots for leaks but overall looks relatively neat imo
    • Yeah i think the dash needs to come out. To get the loom or maybe just climate control and radio cluster. My mirrors are done i think the motors don’t work so well after flood haha i need the ac fan, you said you wanted to keep it for your 31 and interior loom not including boot. The wiper motor. I’m not sure how good the window surrounds are on the exterior on the pintara.  I will message you to get your bank details shortly 
    • Just another barrier put up to stop cars being modified. When we're all driving Chinese sewing machines, you won't want to modify it anyway, and you'll likely already have slashed your wrists and be locked up in a padded room for your own protection.
