Here's a link to Nissan's own page regarding the GTV.

The GTV is basically a R34 GTT, minus the turbo (RB25DE instead of the RB25DET). The GTV has GTT brakes, suspension, HICAS, running gear, etc etc and apparently was the first non-GTR R34 to be made available in Bayside Blue (TV2). Following the release of the GTV, Nissan extended Bayside Blue as a color option on the entire R34 range...

Out of curiousity - Nissan specs mention the GTV has the GTT's "Turbo Floor Stay" Anyone have any idea what the hell that is?:D

Dave, apparently the "floor stay" is an added cross bar or cross member that are put on the turbo cars for added rigidity. It doesn`t specify on that link you gave whethter it`s on the front or rear or both, but I`d put my money on the front. You`ll prolly find an extra cross member under your engine that regular 2.5 GT`s don`t have...

Rezz - thanks for the info about the floorstay!:)

To be honest I wasn't that bothered about the GTV being N/A. It goes pretty well, it was the right price (for my budget at the time) and more importantly the right color (bayside blue)...so I went for it.

Besides, it's only a temporary car till I can get my hands on a R34 GTR in the same color:) I hope!

    • I have multiple bottles in a shed that gets hot, and I'm in SEQ, so it's humid. Maybe we test their theory... Anyone have a system to accurately measure moisture content in oil?
    • Yeah, that and throwing away opened, part used, closed back up bottles has got to be bullshit. Brake fluid sits in not-very-well sealed master cylinder reservoirs for literal years and keeps working (albeit we know we should flush it every couple of years - it actually still works). Anything kept in a bottle in the shed with a tightly capped lid has got to be a million times better than what has been in the car for the same length of time.
    • Wait, they're claiming UNOPENED fluid has a shelf life of only 18 months?
    • The plan is to get it out of the shed. The reality may fall some way short. But hope is as cheap as despair as they say. Will go a wide band I think. The coils are ok so maybe I’ll miss the $1500 on the R35 coils etc. Im still on the fence about a trigger kit. The HKS one looks nice ($1k) - not sure how it works with the Link or if Link prefer something else. Oil pressure is fine so I’m not that concerned there. Fuel pressure I’ll have a think about. The IAT got changed for the Link anyway as the old RB26 ones were really slow reacting and pretty poor. The Power FC just worked. Wasn’t terribly refined but it just worked. Probably made a mistake replacing it really. E85 isn’t available locally - it is 100+ kms away which puts it in the too hard basket. Lastly I understand Tunecorp in Perth are pretty good so was probably going there.   As for turbos is there are new age -5 drop in replacement? Turbos have come a long way in 20 years, everyone is big single which is fair enough but I prefer the old school complication of twins. Wasn’t chasing more power (well, not much more) but more efficiency would be ok.
    • I thought I'd share this....the shell is non genuine but they found or built a lot of the genuine parts. Plus, it is by far the best colour scheme of those years, the winfield once was particularly shit https://www.v8sleuth.com.au/written-off-inaugural-godzilla-recreated/
