GTR vs GTS-T

[Guest FlyGuy]

I had a run with an R33 GTR and it wasn't any faster then my car. It was from about 60 km/h so four wheel drive had nothing to do with it. Hit 160 and he didn't pass me.

I've got a R33 GTS-t with full exhaust, Pod filter, big intercooler running nearly standard boost.

The GTR looked stock standard with an Exhaust tip...

Does this sound right?

[BoOsTeD_RB26]

it sounds odd.....it was probably more luck than anything. What kinda power are you making?

[rev210]

the GTR was a gtst with a body kit.

Or it was only running on 5 cylinders.

The GTR was probably checking to see what your car can do! If he had of passed you do you think you would have still hit 160?

maybe...?

Nah I don't thin its luck... I'm with the others... I don't thik it was a GTR....

Even from a rolling start your car would need at least a 2530 sized turbo to keep up with the R.

FlyGuy - are u absolutely sure it was a 33 R....? not a gts25t?

[Silver-Arrowz]

Com'on people! The GTR badge adds more HP. It's just the driver.

[APA]

okay lets way up the differences

Gtr= Twin Turbo

Gtst = Single turbo

hmmm 1 difference and i already see that you gonna have to be running one not so big but decent size powered puffer to be keeping up with gtr?

and if it was a gtr man is he a shit driver!

no offence dude

but this was prolly gts-t with gtr badge

kinda like non-turbo supra drivers driving around trying to drag as if they own a twin turbo supra!

GTR Badging a GTST - or even worse, a GTS - is lame!

I don't care if people get the kit, cos it's a great looking kit, but don't try and fool people into thinking it's something it's not.

My 2c.

With a genuine 180rwkw a GTS25t will @ the least match a standard R33 GT-R on a roll, from a standing start forget it if the GT-R driver can launch.

A stock R33 GT-R is ~175-180rwkw on the average DD dyno & weights over 100kg more than a GTS25t.

I've put quite a few lengths (~5) on an R33 GT-R V Spec (exhaust/filters & boost increase) from a 70km/h roll to the top of 3rd, he went first. The driver of the GT-R & I spoke after the run. He was in the same gear as me & didn't stuff up. It was an honest run. Then again I wasn't exactly stock @ that stage.

If its modded enough a GTS-T could theoretically win... but it would need a fair amount of mods and be getting good traction and be a good driver. It still comes just down to rwkw

Sounds like either not a genuine GTR or he was just toying with you - most GTR owners i have seen on the streets drive very slowly...mainly 'cause i think they can't afford to insure it after spending all that money.

just out of interest what would a stock r33 GTR in rwd (with front driveshaft) removed do down the 1/4 mile?

[akeenan]

hahaha he hates when people say hes rich!

i wasnt meaning he was rich i just meant that he was giving his car quiet a boot on the cruise up to arthurs seat i couldnt catch up with him!

[Guest INASNT]

[akeenan]

[Guest INASNT]

[akeenan]
