Skyline GTST Type M specs?

[WillPeterson]

Please can anyone give me the ususal specs for a 93 Skyline GTST Type M, HP, 0-60 ETC?

[tuttle]

2498cc,straight six single turbo.GTSt 1993 will prob be an R32 poss R33.Type M1 &M2(M2 is a face-lift model,GTR similar front bumper/higher rear wing etc,mechanically same)

over 18 variants between'93 & '98 models aloneso many 'small' differences.
Rwd with HICAS-rear wheel steering(r/wls on a very short travel bar,supposed to help with under/over steer)-not personally convinced
Bhp will vary but should be in the 230-250 range(if standard.
0-60mph is 6.4 secs
standard ceramic internal turbo runs at 0.4-0.6bar.
Engine & assoc systems are all very well built & can handle very respectable amounts of abuse/modifying
Disc brakes all round,decent 4 pots fr,2 rear-not all have ABS,lot of weight to shrug off-the standard units do a good job,imo.
Check profile or E-mail if I can help.

...'bout the time it takes to glance at the dash clock & back


'fraid I don't know the oficial figure tho that is one of a skylines' major strengths ...

Hehe, yeah.

It always pays to look at 0-100 rather than 0-60 IMO.

The tables can turn rather quickly in that extra 40mph!

Sorry to come over all negative, but what is point of the Skyline GTS-T when the GTR exists? Or more importantly, when the 200SX exists?


You've got all the extra expense of a Skyline and on paper at least, it's not really that quick....

I'd hope it was quicker than that. My ickle 2 litre four pot will crack 100mph in 14 seconds (and 1/4 mile as well).

And that's why I mentioned the 200SX.......

[tuttle]

Horses 4 courses an all that.
Ppl keep forgetting its a feckin' GT!
GTSt is a poor mans GTR,but still a great car,imo.
Agreed the stock specs arn't very impressive,but with minor mods the real world specs are much better.-honest!
200sx is also a worthy beast-just different.

[ApexClipper]

Absolutley, I'm in no way knocking the cars!

I was just kinda thinkin aloud - ie if it was me, I'd rather spend the money on an S14a 200SX.

Then again, if it was between an R32 GTR and an R33 GTS (as they are comparable money) - it would be the GTS.

Or would it? Hmmmmmm the plot thickens!!

[Dakkon]

Remember there is the S15 200SX as well, though you would probably have to import one of them.

Looked impressive at the autocar sideways challenge last year.

[The DJ 27]

Doubt you'd be able to find an S15 in the UK for under £11-12K. Lovely car though

[tuttle]

Will probably sell mine after this summers season,for something a little more practical & suiting current needs.-had 1 or 2 swap offers already
However,in the couple of years,or so,since 'obsession skyline' began,I can definately say that I've enjoyed owning one-more to it than just power specs etc imo there is,for me anyway,something about them Its been a real different experience for me & my family & we've also made some good friends along the way,blah-blah sorry
