What is the difference between Nissan GTT and GTR?
2 Answers
Here are the differences between Nissan GTT and GTR: Different purposes: The GTT is a great drift car, while the GT-R requires the removal of its four-wheel drive system to perform drifts. The GT-R is a high-performance, high-reliability, high-power sports car produced by Nissan, belonging to the Skyline series under Nissan. Appearance: The GT-T has good body rigidity. For the GTT, except for the taillight assemblies and side skirts, many parts are interchangeable between the two-door and four-door models. The GT-R, on the other hand, embodies the essence of design, incorporating futuristic and avant-garde elements to create a unique new image. It has also become a classic in terms of aesthetics, breaking away from the traditional sedan image.
Back in the day, I drove quite a few Nissan cars. The GT-T and GT-R were both siblings from the Skyline family, but they were quite different. The GT-T was more like a great daily commuter, equipped with an RB25DET single-turbo engine, rear-wheel drive, moderate power, smooth and fuel-efficient, perfect for city driving for office workers. The GT-R, on the other hand, was a high-performance beast, like the classic R34 GT-R, powered by an RB26DETT twin-turbo engine and an all-wheel-drive system, with fierce acceleration and exceptional grip, ideal for track or mountain road racing. In the early days, the GT-T was more affordable and easier to find in the used car market, while the GT-R was significantly more expensive, costlier to maintain, and required caution against over-modification. Both were highly sought after by car enthusiasts, but the GT-R had a stronger legendary status, often featured in movies like "The Fast and the Furious." In short, choosing between them depends on your budget and purpose—the GT-T is more approachable, while the GT-R is the king of the track.
