It is more noticeable around a fast corner and on the GT-T this inspires less confidence to go into a corner hard or under trail braking than when driving the GT-R. The GT-R ones really are excellent and give excellent body support. The seats in the GT-T really are lacking in support for spirited driving since the level of damping is surprisingly soft for the level of power available. Torque builds up well and gives a push into the back of the seat feeling that every respectable high performance sports coupe should deliver.Ĭlimbing out of the GT-T into the GT-R and the differences are already starting to become more apparent. The car gives a very respectable power delivery and easily feels like its good for 300 bhp. On the open road the GT-T feels very well accomplished, lots of smooth power delivery and then a very nice zone (just above 3,000 revs when the turbo came on strong to give a very nice urgent pull to the engine). The GT-R was completely standard apart from running on wider rimmed alloys (265 tyres). The GT-T was a slightly modified example with an anti-cat straight through exhaust, running 1-bar boost pressure (raised from 0.6 standard), HKS plugs and HKS filter to give around 300 bhp plus a factory GT-R rear wing replacing the GT-T's standard one and running on 18" wheels and less than 10k miles (as new condition really). I should know since I drove both cars back to back on the same day one after the other.įirst let us outline the examples I drove. The GT-T makes do with a much more toned down front bumper with a smaller sized intercooler.īasically, both cars come from the same ?gene pool' but both are different to drive. The GT-R has wider bodied wings and a big front mounted intercooler with aggressive front spoiler. The GT-R having a 6-speed box and the GT-T a five speed unit. The GT-T has simply 3 analogue dials show oil temperature, boost pressure and battery voltage. The GT-R has a nice computer multi-function display showing torque, power, oil temperature, boost pressure, etc. The GT-R has racing Brembo calipers and huge stopping power. The GT-T has big sized Nissan manufactured calipers with excellent stopping power.
The GT-T runs on 225/17's section tyres, the GT-R runs on 245/18's. The GT-T has NEO variable valve lift timing and both cars come equipped with excellent HICAS 4-wheel steering and the same leather trimmed steering wheel. Both outputs are claimed to be 280 bhp (this is actually inaccurate, the GT-R is 320 bhp in real life!). The GT-T is rear wheel drive 2.5 litre single turbo (RB25DET) and the GT-R is a four wheel drive 2.6 litre twin turbo (RB26DETT). Just recently I drove its bigger brother the GT-R in a bid to decide whether to upgrade to the GT-R or not.įirstly let us just refresh ourselves here about the two cars. I have now owned an R34 GT-T for one year now. This review compares the R34 GT-T to the R34 GT-R (both driven back to back along the same stretch of road).
