i agree. even if i had $500k, i'd rather buy a $9k base model, strip it, buy an HKS crate motor, do a body kit, suspension, brakes, wheels, convert it to LHD, fresh paint and probably be at half of what TJ put into a GTR that is modified anyway. makes no sense to go down the GTR route.

the R34 GT-R is sick, we had one when my dad was stationed in japan a 15 years ago - i loved that car. but it's not 05-06 ford gt or 997 GT2/RS cross shopping sick. also, fun fact, the original mystichrome cobra came out in 1996, it was truly the first of it's kind. at the time there was only the R33 midnight purple but it didn't "flick" the same as MP2 & MP3 off of R34's.

Hi vin, I like the video, I currently live in japan, seeing gtst, gtt, gtr on the road everyday. All are great cars, I feel if you compare the base gtt with gtr your numbers would have been a little closer. I also one key thing that gets over look is the maintenance cost to keep those car running. But that is neither here or there. Love the videos, keep making great content!!

We also need to note and discuss that the r34 gtr itself has base model, mid tier and top level that can price it anywhere from $90,000 Up to $500,000 based on rarity and options. A basic non Vspec, Mspec, N1, ztune, nur, gtr really shouldn't be over $120,000 because they made several thousand of them. Let's also not forget the stagea options if you don't mind a wagon. A rs4 is way less than a gtr and the autech 260rs is basically a gtr wagon for under $50,000. Add a gtr front and your golden.

The Skyline (R34 or otherwise) wasn't the only Japanese hero car that had a pedestrian/base model. The 3000GT/GTO was known for it's flagship AWD/twin-turbo VR-4 model, but there were several "pedestrian" trim options available that featured non-turbo variants of the 6G72 engine, and a FWD drivetrain. Hell, you could even get the 3000GT in a base trim model that featured a SOHC non-turbo version of the 6G72 engine, cloth seats and analog HVAC control knobs in place of the "of the era" digital HVAC controls/buttons that 3S platform cars are known for. The SL model featured a DOHC non-turbo 6G72/FWD drivetrain, but still had some of the same amenities as the VR-4 like leather seats, digital HVAC display & premium sound. Although they still lacked things like 4WS, active aero, active exhaust, etc. So the SL trim basically bridged the gap between the lowly base model and the flagship VR-4 model. Just wanted to point this out since I happen to own a '95 3000GT Spyder SL, and these cars are often overlooked or forgotten about when talking about Japanese hero cars from the 90s.

There's so many cars, but the US only values GTR's, Supra's, NSX, and RX7's. There's a lot of japanese cars from the 90's that had base models and hero car versions that all made the JDM scene what it is today, it's just most people in the US don't really know about it all, whereas Asia, Australia and New Zealand all lived the 90's JDM scene actually during the 90's and have ever since (not to mention even earlier decades than the 90's). We all got these cars when they were sold new and we've been tuning them all ever since. The base models skylines are dime a dozen and nobody bats an eyelid at them, I can go out to my street and will put money on seeing one drive by my house before the day ends.

As someone who imported a super low milage HR34 (4 door) active red 2 Rb20 neo auto from Japan in 2020, I couldn't be happier with my choice, even if it is the lowest spec of the chassis. Fitted some work emotions, turbo brakes, NISMO exhaust and some good bilstein b6s and RSR lowering springs. It's everything id ever want from the car, and a chassis I've dreamed about since being a kid. Driven from Wales to Central Italy twice now in it, and it's the ultimate jdm highway tourer. Yes I'd love more power and a manual, but not for the price tag they're asking these days.

The RB25DET NEO is a pretty stout tunable engine actually. GTR spec rods and upgraded pistons compared to the normal RB25 makes the bottom end strong and it also has the variable cam timing so you get better spool and power. I had a stagea with the NEO on it and all i did was install an MLS headgasket, some ARP headstuds and a old big HKS turbo and i ran 500hp all day. Most reliable car i have ever had and that was with an old Apexi controlling it with a maf.

Love the video, and the format! but the fact you used a modified gt-r is just not fair. Stock, like most of the hero cars where underwhelming at best. Compared stock for stock with modern-ish cars. I had a 300zx tt, it was a dog ( only 150ish heavier than the gtr and slightly more HP). Regardless, stock for stock the gtt would come ahead no doubt, but still way too much for 50-60k IMO.

Is the skyline GTT just not a good drift chassis? Or is just a cost perspective? I know the 4 doors are used for drifting but is the 2 door just not as good or is it just the price difference?

Easy to get power out of a GTT mine I high flowed the turbo, triple layer head gasket, arp head studs, bigger fuel pump, 1000cc injectors, nistune ecu and electronic boost controller making 400hp at the wheels cost $6000 aud - around $3800 usd

It would be cool to see a future built GT-T. How’s the steering compare? It is lighter weight without the all-wheel drive system. It might be a nice canyon car. Although the R32/33 comparison could be made too.

I'm a poor boy, the baseline is pretty rad to me that you get a cool looking cummuter car with support for making it something fun in the future and still being way under the even thr GTT price point depending on what you want to do with it.

@@nescockkI mean lets be real, all R34s are way overpriced and a bit of a waste of money. But if I was going to have an R34, I'd rather build something a bit more personal for like $25-30k than buy what would be basically the same thing for $50k+ that just has a better name and vin #.

Good comparison, mostly feels like the GT needs that manual swap and a decent exhaust for having another shot at the GTT. Should be able to handle similar or better at less than half the price of the GTT (with the right mods).

Sweet video featuring some good cars …. Ughh idk why it bugged the hell outta me with the hyping up of making a GTT look more GTR like. I guess the shadow cast by the R34 GTR style an what not just shades all the lesser skylines because they’re siblings after all

This might have already been said, but the GT-T comes with an RB25DET and is single turbo but in the video twin turbo keeps being stated, not true. If it was a twin turbo it would be an RB25DETT, which isn't a thing, like the RB26DETT. I think you even said it in the video, equipped with an RB25DET.
