    I wouldn't have been "hating" if you were "restoring" the car, or getting something within the specs of the original car, but you're doing a "Skyline GT-R" Conversion on a Skyline GTS-T?

    Let's take another analogy...

    You have an Integra (random 94 body style)

    You make it look, act, and even have the same engine as the Integra Type-R, but guess what, there's just some things from factory that you can't duplicate. Ahem, chassis, suspension setup, actual build quality, and a number of things.

    So do you even know the difference between the Skyline GTS-T and Skyline GT-R? AND Which year Skyline GT-R are you talking about?
    well lets see, besides the gts is rwd and the gtr is awd, the gtst is an rb25 single turbo the gtr is rb26 TT. The gtr is wider and longer, the gtr has black housing headlights and the gtst has chrome, the gtr has a taller spoiler, the gtr has adjustable coilovers, the gtr has an extra gear, the gtr guages go to 320 kilos while the gts goes to 180. The advantage of a show gt is I can go staggered wheels as opposed to the gtr being awd has to have the same offset all the way around. For what I want to do with the car I just couldn't see spending an extra 15g's for a true gtr when I can take a gts and make it look the way I want it to look.

    and it's the R33 gt-r, I personally like the R33's better than R34's

    Current Toy: A few classics, maybe a few imports too. Whatever
