What Does Gts-t Stand For?

[EVILTD]

Hi guys,

Sorry if this is a silly question, but although I know what GT-R stands for - Gran Tourismo Racer...was wondering if someone can please tell me what GTS-T stands for?

I've heard rumours it stands for something like, Gran Tourismo Standard Turbo?? Please explain...

Many thanks....

Lastly, are GTS-T Turbo SKylines known for their speed/power?

REgards,

[markimak]

no GTST arent knw for speed and power. they r knw for a good moding base car.. and a good turbo coupe

Grad Tourismo Racer hey? I havent heard that before. interesting.

I just figured GTS was the base model and the -t was for the Turbo variant.

The R32 was the only Skyline to get the GTS-t name too I believe as the R33 was the GTS25t and the R34 got GT-t.

I think its Grand Touring Sports Turbo

[EVILTD]

I actually have a lot of admiration for R33 GTS's as they are nick quick RWD cars...

[EVILTD]

I think its Grand Touring Sports Turbo

Uuumm.... makes some sense.... any real facts?

[ScorpR32]

I think that's an urban myth.

Found this but not sure how true it is.........

Engine codes :- RB (Race Bred) 20 (2000cc) D (double (twin) cam) E (electronic fuel injection) T (turbo (TT twin turbo)), so now you know what's a RB26DETT ?, yep you guessed it's very fast ! and lot more money.

Found this but not sure how true it is.........

Engine codes :- RB (Ranch Bacon) 20 (20sec 1/4 mile) D (Doesn't) E (Exactly) T (Thrill)

Fixed

LHO!!!

Laugh head off.

RB is just a sereies designator for the engine type, family.

eg ca18, ca20 inline 4 cyl

VG30, vq25 vq30, vq35 v6's

[Munkyb0y]

so then

vq = very quiet?

vg = variable goodness?

ca = cow's ass?

is that right? coz i'm pretty sure it is

my cup-a-soup is ready

didnt u get sick of cup-a-soup in jail?
