Hey

Can anyone tell me the difference between a R33 GTS-T 1996 series 2 and R33 GTS-4 1996 series 2.

I know the gts4 is 4WD Turbo (and so it handles like a gtr) if it has GTR 4WD transmission.

Also price differences etc. (r they cheaper for eg?). also if u wanna convert to rwd how much, pros, cons etc. .

the one im interested in is a RB25det conversion and is a 2door- and asking price is 11g's. advice plz

Cheers

If you really want to go through a conversion to RWD, you'd be better off saving yourself the trouble and looking at GTS-Ts' rather than GTS-4s'.

You'd be able to pick up a decent S2 GTST for maybe 14-17k

sorry for not directly answering your questions by the way.

Thats correct. Only R32 GTS-4's came in a turbo version. R33 GTS-4's only came in non-turbo, so if you find one, it has had an engine swap. Engine would have come from a Stagea most likely as a GTST RB25 wouldn't fit due to the front diff. The whole sump is shaped differently.

It may also be an RB25DE + t which you should look out for. If it is a non-turbo engine with a turbo wacked on, you will be very restricted with mods mainly due to the higher compression ratio.

also with the r33 gts4 if you put a conversion switch in them they arent constant 2wd all of a sudden they will switch back on something to do with the front driveshaft but with the r32 gts4 its all good i just swiych on 2wd and its stays on untill i turn it off

Not quite right mate..

With the 33 and 34 4wd systems, there is always a certain amount of preload on the transfer case, so turning off the computer doesn't remove all the mechanical link. Therefore if you throw a 33 or 34 on a 2wd dyno and only pull the fuse and expect it to be ok, you will most likely toast your transfer case clutch pack.

It doesn't all of a sudden come back on...

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Interesting that it has 2 to the USB stick. Are the ones to the USB stick different? Or labelled anything at all? Telstra 4G is Band 28 is the long range one you want, it's 700mHz. I'm trying to do some reading on the Cel-Fi stuff, but I can't find any decent info online that makes me feel comfortable being able to work out the sort of antennas we could get away to swapping it over to. The antennas I'm starting to do some stuff with at work, are a transparent antenna. They're designed to stick onto the window. Which means you wouldn't even have the antenna outside the car. Volkswagen have just started using the exact same types of antennas on some of their new cars (And from the same antenna manufacturer). But, RF stuff is a bit of a dark art some days, and getting it wrong in your car could make for a terrible waste of money trying to swap antennas :S

      What do you do with all the spares?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm not going to lie Duncan, Saturday and Sunday were pretty rough days. The sort of work I was doing would previously have ended up with me spending about an hour and a half chatting with Neil. Firstly about something I had a question about, and then both of us rambling off on tangents.  I think how Neil did things, and his attitude to getting it done is helping me in part to get this stuff done. Then I can actually do the things I enjoy more easily

      ER, HR bonnet question

      By RBjay34 · Posted

      Talked to another R34 GT-T owner, he said bonnet of his car once fell and slammed from full height because of strong wind at a car show and nothing was damaged or broken, so I guess I'm just overthinking some things but yeah, just making sure I'm not damaging the car anyhow cause wanna keep it for a long time.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I would say 100% that it doesn't matter at all. I have an Al bonnet and I drop it sometimes, push it others. Have done so for 25 years and there's no way to tell that either has caused any problems (because there are no problems).
