Well, well! Look at Mr. Fast and Furious! Was it weird driving a car from the right side? Were you dissoriented?
I saw this actual Skyline from 2Fast 2Furious. A college around me bought it to use to promote the school's automotive programs (Porter and Chester Institute)

sweet.!! im jealous
The school DID modify the car since they got it. The car is now a dark metallic gray. The stripe graphics are still there, but those are now a darker gray. When they got the car, they said it had 500 HP. They retuned it for 700 HP. The car was immaculate. It did feel odd sitting in a right-hand-drive car though.Quote:

Let me put it this way. The R34 Skyline GTR is slower around the Nurburgring than an American economy car.Quote:

yeah but the new skylines available are a completely different car that the R34.
The new Skylines are sold over here as this. The new GTR is completely unrelated. Though yes. the new V35 and V36 Skylines are unrelated to the previous Skylines. besides similar body styles and drivetrain options.Quote:

This car was absolutely awesome. The 0-60.... i'd say it was about 5 seconds, at least for me it was. It was a tad bit weird to me driving the RHD. But after a little bit of practice driving, i got the hang of it. When i went to India last year, i was driving RHD and it was nothing like this skyline.
Its not a GTR, its a GTS.
RB25det. the single turbo, with blow off valves, and a **** ton of mods, all in all it had about 400 something horsepower... honestly ridiculous
its up for sale if any of you are interested :)
I kinda like the new ones better than the older ones.
When my parents had went to a nissan dealer i saw the new GTR in the lobby. Costed near 100k to buy one lol. because of shipping and everything to get it here.
the new GTR is butt ugly. If I were going for an older Skylinr, it'd be a RWD R33, As I loved how those look over the R32 and R34. However, the Infiniti G35/G37 I adore. Not sure why. I just do.
well you like luminas too, so that says something, right?
I like the engineering underneath and that a bit of work and they looks really good, but stock? no. they're bland Beluga Whales.Quote:
