Are There Any Differences Between A R33 Gts-t And A R33 Gts25-t?


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I have heard a few comments and just want to clear this up. I noticed some Skylines do not come badged at the rear with anything to suggest they're a R33 GTS-T or a GTS25-T. However, I have always assumed that the "25" was just to represent the RB25DET engine this models after 1996 to late 1998 had the new "GT25-T" badge and there aren't any differences between the two, is this correct?

However, on the other hand, a few of my mates suggest that the GTS25-T models came with some extra goodies...can someone please confirm this...many thanks.

SM.

I thought all R33 GTS-Ts had the GTS25t sticker, while the GTS had the GTS25 sticker.

I thought it was just some people removed them coz they like the no sticker/badge look?

My 1993 series 1 R33 GTS-T has a GTS25t sticker, but the "t" peeled off...

Yep one and the same, when the guys on here refer to an r33 gts-t it's easier to type gts-t rather than gts25-t

there's no actual 'special' gts25-t model, maybe the 40th anniversary models but pretty sure they still came off the showroom floor with the gts25t sticker

AWD versions have gts-4 stickers from factory, doesn't mean the car is a 4 cylinder or 4 litre

Then again you should all get r34's so you only have to type GT-t hahaha

correct my 40th anni has a gts25t sticker on the rear. GTS-T is just a shorterned way of saying ur GTS is turbo charged. a lot of people don't even bother with the T on the end. non turbo R33s arent so popular in the heavy tuning motorsports world and most tuners name the GTS25T as just a GTS. as opposed to being a GTR.

Hey all, thanks for your replies... this answers it nicely!

So there aren't any differences after all - what do you know.

So does the 40th anniversary edition one have anything that's different?

Cheers.

It has oval "40th Anniversary" badges on the C pillars, similar fabric decals sewn into the front seats and a smug sense of self-satisfaction when driving that you own a "special" model :P

More factory options

R34 crank angle sensor

The cams also differ slightly and need to be 98 model specific when replacing/upgrading

    • What are you doing with the car? street car or race car? People get hung up on the squat of the s/r chassis rears. There is positives to the squat if a car is setup and driven correctly for it (correct ride height, spring rate, alignment, damper valving). Generally just lengthen the rear traction arm by 5-10mm and that will help the squat and bump steer too. You are also correct with the roll centre too. This too also needs to be adjustable if you start messing with suspension geometry.   Having done quiet a bit of testing on race cars this year in regards to rear squat, I've seen some big positives from it in regards to drive off corners and traction. 
    • I find I am using the MX5 for everything except long overnight cruises with Jackie, or, if picking up the kids to go somewhere, the SS has so much more room inside, and is much more comfortable if your going to be doing Hwy driving for 6-8 hours And the MX5 isn't bad in stop go traffic for a manual transmission car, whilst the clutch kit has been upgraded from stock, it is still light, and also not having a stupidly light flywheel in it helps as well, I've spent alot of time sitting on the M5, M4 and M7 stuck in traffic when plodding around the Greater Sydney Region in it Another benefit is MX5's are not really a car that gets stolen, you can pretty much park it anywhere, and it will still be there when you return
    • I can totally get why you like it for that sort of commute. I was thinking BoganDore because it's such a lazy drive, for things like stop start traffic.   I used to do over an hour in stop start shit from one side of Bris to the next, twice a day. My choice of car was larger displacement, with an auto. Basically for torque in low rpm/very low speed, and no clutch pedal. But loved a fun manual for the weekends, which the partner has (plus had the LandCruiser too for other fun drives). I now have an EV as a work car, and I tell ya what, ultimate daily driver, especially if youre out of energy, like I often am after work. I don't even need to touch the brake pedal   That said, I'm presently rebuilding the Liberty GTB to get it setup for weekend drives and track abuse! So small high revving turbo engine with 6 speed cog swapper!   But for your style of commute, I'd probably take the MX5 too!   For those choices, I'm ignoring fuel economy. Because I know how atrocious V8 daily life is for fuel from when I used to daily a manual SS, ha ha. Hence why I know I love the daily rumble of a V8
    • II know what u are saying after 9 years of hibernating my stock engined  110,00km gtt I got it registered 2 weeks ago. Took it for a drive a couple of days ago and some fresh bp fuel, I just couldn’t stop grinning and dreaming of when I will start my build thread. its just such a primal man feeling many forget to enjoy I wish u so much enjoyment with your little racer mate
    • People just don't understand how good MX5's actually are and how fun they are to drive, park, manuever. You feel like you have got some fun cheat code, while everyone else is sitting in their luxobargeSUV like normies who missed the point of living. It really is that noticable. As long as you/your stuff fit, and you're comfortable (they are), a MX5 is the best car on earth to daily around.
