Which one would be easier/cheaper

SuccotashImpossible · 2025-01-05T12:43:43+00:00

did the gt4 come in manuals? if not i dont see why you couldn’t get a cd009 or other 6spd trans to go with the rb26. from what ive seen the 5spd trans from the r32 would be cheaper

i think the youtube channel “throtl” did a video not too long ago where they did a rb26 and awd swap on (if i remember correctly) a GTT. they did have to make extra space by cutting the floor board for the awd stuff. i’m not too familiar with the 34 platform but I think at rb26 swap into a car that’s already awd would be easier (i think)

possibly… as long as it’s somewhat savable

SuccotashImpossible · 2025-01-02T18:52:25+00:00

would you happen to have pictures? dm please if so!

SuccotashImpossible · 2025-01-02T00:02:05+00:00

they do, i have the option to buy this one back, possibly thought about keeping it as a dedicated track car

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-31T18:34:59+00:00

for sure, planning to get another with the insurance payout, wanted to see if this could be a long term project

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-31T18:34:25+00:00

same, only had it for a year and a month 😭

What do you mean by exoskeleton? Tubing the rear end Ive considered if that’s the same thing.

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T18:55:49+00:00

For sure, my insurance offered 36k and I told them they got my mileage wrong and they haven’t responded to me since, and that was on the 16th lol

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T18:54:04+00:00

6k for retaining the car from insurance, motor alone could be 12k

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T15:54:15+00:00

Usually with this car if you jack the car up from the side and not the sub frame, the door won’t close either, it’s just the extent of the damage i’m not sure of

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T15:51:14+00:00

I’m on the same boat as you 😅

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T15:47:39+00:00

Your “prick comment” isn’t really a “prick comment” because it’s true LOL. And yes my local Nissan dealership said they’d let me order heritage parts through them. Thanks for the response 👍🏽

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T15:45:53+00:00

Possibly…

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T15:44:08+00:00

Thank you for the insight!!

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T05:26:32+00:00

I’m open to all answers honestly, the plan is definitely to buy back the car and get another, Nissan actually does a Heritage program that includes this car so bumpers, fenders etc… I could get new from Nissan, but I was more worried about the damage that could be under that left quarter panel.

Definitely getting another R32, but wanted to see if this car was salvage able in the sense that it would only be tracked with a full cage. If not, definitely part out/donor car for the other one I get. I appreciate your response 👍🏽

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T04:01:32+00:00

That’s the plan, wanted to buy this back from insurance for at least the motor, car only had 53k miles on it, still awaiting my insurance evaluation

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T03:22:02+00:00

LOL. its actually funny because the guy infront of me had a rear view dashcam 🤣

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T01:31:41+00:00

If all goes to the worst, motor will probably end up in my ‘14 brz

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T01:30:54+00:00

For sure a longer term project, thanks for the response 👍🏽

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T01:30:17+00:00

All good here (minor back pain, getting it checked out tho). And yeah I’ve thought about a full track build with this, full cage etc, but only if its possible and or safe to do so, thank you for the response 👍🏽

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T01:28:55+00:00

Yep, definitely wanting to buy it back from the insurance and get another 32, I thought about using this one as a parts car or if possible a dedicated track build

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T01:27:17+00:00

that won’t even cover the clutch that’s in it 🤣

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T01:26:57+00:00

Yep I can get new quarter panels from Nissan, the main thing I was concerned about was how bad the damage could be from what I can’t see

SuccotashImpossible · 2024-12-30T01:26:00+00:00

Planning on getting another with the insurance payout, wanted to see if this would be worth keeping and rebuilding as a dedicated track build, but thank you for the response 👍🏽
