Hi all,

I'm new to this forum, i'm after my second car (and am a skyline n00b) and basically want the most bang for buck without spending too much. Now my question is this, I live in QLD currently and am on my P's, but will most likely be moving down to Melbourne next year for study purposes. Does anyone happen to know if any of the turbo r32s are p plate legal down there? From what I can gather a gtst or gts4 might just scrape under their power to weight ratio? Like I said, i want something with a bit of poke and plenty of potential for modifications - and a skyline seems like a great idea!

And another question seems im here - gtst vs gts4 - can someone give me some ideas as to the pros/cons of each? I'm leaning towards the gts4, but any input would be great.

Thanks in advance guys!

Dan.

Hey,

Do a search on this topic as it has been covered loads of time! I'm sure the moderators will tell you the same thing.

The answer, R32 GTS-t and GTS-4 are legal for P platers in Victoria.

Cheers

You can drive a 32 Gts, Gtst or the GTS 4 one but not GTR

Btw if u got the GTST theres no room for mods otherwise you go over the power to weight ratio. :angry: as it comes in at 124.3 kw or something :S

Gtst: Looks more like a sports car but less room

Gts4: More Room but looks more looks less sporty

but it all comes down to Personal opion, search it all been asked before :)

Thanks guys! I was certain it had been covered before, but me and search function don't seem to get along :O And i thought the r32 gtst and gts4 had the same power output? Anywayz i'll go do some more searches!

I wonder then, are any of the turbo 33s p plate legal? Guess i'd better look into that!

Ciao! B)

Do you really know what you are talking about?

GTS4 does not mean it is a 4 door, it is a 4wd GTST.

Personally, i would prefer the gtst, as i think the rb20det is not torquey enough for the 4wd system and the extra weight. This is only my opinion, others may disagree

      This isn't for lotsa powers, and time and effort isn't even a thing I'm concerned about The whole reason is "Just because fun", and "Just because fun" is what I do And whilst there are other kits, with better and more modern turbos (Rev9 use the same Kraken manifold I believe.....EDIT... nope, the Kraken is a cast jobbie, the REv9 uses welded up stainless, plus $8000 AUD before shipping, installation and tuning) Where else in Sydney can I do a drive in drive out with the after sales support that MX5 Mania give My Turbo 86 made around 200kwatw on a AVO turbo kit that Pulse fitted, and it was over 100kg heavier than the MX5, but it was a blast to drive around the streets, until I crashed it.....DOOH, so somewhere around 200 ish level and some whooshy noises and I'll be happy driving to work, the shops, or heading into the country with Jackie for Devonshire tea So, thanks Dose for your info, it sounds like a 0.64 will be fine for what I'm after👍 The only real racing I do nowadays is to the toilet

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
