GTS/T with GTR Badge Shame File

Recommended Posts

Okay guys,

it is something that bothers us all as per Robin's post here

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=63254

and as per James suggestion in the same post, I have decided to start up a GTR Badge on a GTS/T Shame file.

Basically the way it goes is as you see these abominations around town or on another site, post the pic here for everyone to see.

Hopefully we can shame these people into removing the badge.

p.s to those who own a monster GTST that is as fast as a GTR or faster and think that gives them the right to have the badge, show some pride in your achievement. It is no small thing to get a GTST to be like that and you will get a lot more respect for it than whacking a dodgy badge on your car.

if I have have HCR on the chasis plate - is it a GTR?

if I have a GTR bodykit on my car - is it a GTR?

if I have a GTR badge on my car - is it a GTR?

if I have GTR rims on my car - is it a GTR?

if a GTR owner did a turd on my car - would it be a GTR?

I think you will find.. the resounding answer to all of these is, it's still not a GTR..

Even though these wouldn't make one's car a GTR, it's hardly a "Shame" to have these exterior improvements.

I think what he is saying that those people are using those add-on's as an excuse to put a GTR badge on their car, not that there is anything wrong with the add-on's themselves.

Chris it was a great idea to start the discusion regarding GTR badges i thought i was the only 1 who thought its just wrong and sad to put GTR badges on a GTST, ill have a camera with me from now on, so by the end of the week we'll need a new file server cause theres just so many fake GTR's around!

after driving along on a sunday i started to relize just how many fake GTR's there are, and some1 has to put a stop to this, its wrong! (thats why i started my thread)

either these badges are sold in bulk daily like bread or GTR owners around australia have had their badges taken.

I dont mind if the driver admits and says its a GTST but to carry on and make it as it actually is a GTR by having a bodykit, spoiler, engine or twin turbos...., its just wrong!

After i had an argument with some1 the other night regarding this i could not wait to get home and start this thread, this gtst owner put a twin turbo set up on his rb25, and him and his friends who had honestly no clue what a gtr is went along with it claiming if u add a twin turbo set up on a gtst the car magicly becomes a GTR, wow thats a nice trick, so i asked what u call a gtr with a single turbo conversion? a gtst i dont think so!

Please if u have GTR badges on your skylines i dont care but DONT claim and try to tell others its a GTR...! its not!

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
