For an R32 - would you take a stock GT-R, or a GTS-t that had enough performance and styling bits thrown at it to make up the price difference? Let's say you were just buying them as is, with no intention of modifying the GTS-t any more, or the GT-R at all.

That's about $10000 worth of mods . . . what's your opinion?

with the money you spent on a gtr u could get a good gts-t and do a shit load of mods and get it going heaps better then a gtr, if you do everything properly.

that is if u didnt do any mods to the gtr.

dare to be different i say!

This is something im thinking about every day.

Currently i have a 32 GTST that is modded in every way, nothing is realy stock except my seats. Has 235rwkw, full suspension upgrade, new rotors/pads, body kit, wheels etc. Probably spent, well i better not add that up ill scare myself. It goes hard, stops and turns and is great fun to drive. But not good enough yet.

Im thinking either RB25, bigger turbo etc and get about 270rwkw with huge brakes and a totally stripped r32 to keep the weight down OR get a GTR and do some mild mods with new sus brakes to make a killer street/thrash car. A gtr will be quicker on the street you would think due to traction and would be a nicer car to drive daily. the only thing i dont like is when you open the bonnet and there is crap eveywhere, that and if something breaks it will cost a lot more money.

Depends on which you mean. I would only consider the "33" types. For some odd reason I've taken to the 33 over the 32/34 besides the fact it has the most boring interior and arguably the most staid exterior.

Eventually I'll have a 33 GT-R but it seems like an odd upgrade over the 33 GTS-t. It'll be faster in every respect but it won't be as 'fun' to drive, it'll use even more fuel (!!!) and it'll set new standards in extortionate repair and performance bills.

I don't contemplate looking at the same interior again...

T.

i would definately go the GTST with 10k in mods.... drop an Rb25det in it... bigger turbo... fmic... ECU... boost... suspension brakes and tyres... if theres anything left over then work on the exterior

After owning a stock GTR and a fully worked GTS-t, I choose the GTR hands down.

It really is no comparison. The GTR makes such a lot of torque so easily, and is a much nicer car to drive... ATTESA is a godsend too... No point in making 300rwkw if you struggle to put it down and get stomped by stock GTRs off the line...

Given your wording, it could be suggested that the lower-spec has been modded in every way - so every department is up to GTR quality (and god knows how much money that would take?! - a HELL of a lot more than $10k even in canadian $$). Then you essentially have a GTST and GTR with the same performance and luxuries. If both were essentially equal, why would you take the GTST?? (less prestige, less resale value, and so on)

Would I take a GTR over a GTST with $10k thrown at it? Of course.
