Just wondering if anyone can tell me the differences between the GTS-4 and the GT-R. Mainly concerned about the AWD system, are they both the same or are their many differences. Also just any other basic differences minus the engine for obvious reasons.

Just curious as will be purchasing a R32 soon enough and as i already have a R33 GT-R engine, would it be cheaper to place the engine into a GTS-4?

Any help would be appreciated.

hi

gtr has different diff ratios - so may have to change the rear diff to match the gtrs front diff ratio to the gts-4 rear ratio- unless you use gts-4s front diff also.

gtr has mechanical rear lsd, gts 4 has viscous

gtr has different ratios in gearbox and i think also has heavier duty gears in box, tho box looks same on outside.

4wd system is the same - variable torque split to front wheels

chassis is the same

suspension takes same parts although spring rates may be different

wiring is very similar - see gtr workshop manual covers gtr and gts-4

gtr has thicker front discs and has directionally vented rotors, gts-4 has same rotors left and right - pads are same for each tho.

gtr has better seats, gives slightly more rear leg room in back

gtr is a 4 seater, gts-4 5 seater if they have small bums

gts 4 has same driveshafts, swaybars,

gtr has of course aluminium bonnet and front guards

both have abs brakes

gtr has super hicas 4ws as opposed to normal hicas on gts-4.

gtr ( more aggressive to cope with the extra power that gtr has??) may have a diff rate that 4wd comes on-?? not sure tho

prob a few others, but these are the main ones

hope that helps

Stephen

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
