The Stig Posted August 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Yup, the RB26DETT engine is pretty much the same through the R32, R33, and R34 GTRs with some minor differences. Same with the ATTESA-ETS AWD system. As someone pointed out, another advantage of the R32 is that it's quite a bit lighter than the later models (by several hundred pounds).. and even so compared with later R32s (which had an extra 50 kg worth of side impact beams put in). In fact, a good number of tuners prefer the R32 for its weight advantage. Adrian's also right, the RWD bias of the AWD system is pretty cool.What's so special about Skyline GTRs? Well, there's no perfect car, but the GTR is a pretty capable performer both in a straight line, and definitely on the twisties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
