**** it, I'd take the car. Remove the neon, put the factory wing back on, maybe repaint it, or peal off the vinyle details.
Although, knowing how movies work, it's probably not even a GT-R! |
Am I the only one...
Who thinks the Skyline is ugly as sin? Outside the power of it, I really don't like the body. Looks too much like the old 240 / Honda Prelude. :gotme:

Those rims are sweet... If that really was a GT-R someone needs a major asswhooping.

Skyline was never imported here because of the emissions. Something about it being too high. Read it somewhere a while back. I would take a STI over a skyline :-). Better yet, give me a porsche GT3. I would take that anyday.

:007: RICE!!!

I already got my (JDM) Skyline :)

...I just think it has a tough look, it is sleek without being wimpy, race-ready without looking ricey... It definitly is the Jap Mustang and it has a better more original look in my opinion. Although I admit, exclusivity is appealing too since there aren't a lot over here.
|
i've read about that skyline in scc mag this morning...it's pretty much stock....have three bottles of nos on the passenger seats which haven't been connected to the engine.....btw..that car is suppose to be a 505hp and 444tq car in 2F2F.....
|
I honestly didn't think someone could rice out a skyline, but wtf, with all those exterior mods, that engine stock really can't back them up. Could they have at least gotten a boost controller or something, sigh.

Sorry I had to get as many smilies in as possible on this whole crack-basher kick... |
Its really is a R34 Gt-r....but they made it hollyWood and slow (it has been ragged on to the point it only runs mid to low 14s)......:mad: ......What a waste of a pretty Skyline!:thumbsdow

I heard all sorts of things about the intentions to bring the Skyline to the States. Just keep your fingers crossed because today, the auto industry is so freaking cut-throat that they're doing anything to gain the edge in image, volume, profits or all of the above.

In Japan the 350z and G35 is called the Skyline coupe and sedan but they havent made the GT-R series yet. It would be awesome if they put the Q45 V8 and some turbos in it the new GTR:D ...but the VQ35 and some turbos would be kool too:) |
Originally posted by Kojiro_FtT Um, it's already happened. motectransam, meet the http://www2.nissan.co.jp/SKYLINE/V35/0301/"]Nissan Skyline V35[/URL], aka http://www.infiniti.com/content/0,,cid-23920_sctid-12001,00.html"]Infiniti G35[/URL]. Now we are just waiting for the GT-R version. But I heard they were gonna call it a G35 R-Spec, and drop the GT-R badge????? How can they do that, that's nutz! We'll see. (oh I forgot to mention the GT-R prototype was a left hand drive ;) ) |

Originally posted by Matthew What are the projected figures on a twin turbo 3.5 L VQ??? 420+whp possible??? I have seen different projects with the VQ30,VQ35 and the Q45 engine...most likely the Vq35 with some turbos.....i wouldnt be suprised if it was around 500hp, it will break the >280hp mark japan has most of their sports cars.... O and it better be AWD!!!Thats what a Skyline is all about!!! |

Originally posted by gtbigup motortrend a few months featured a company in ca. that supposedly was given permission to import them.Funny thing is they were all used and still had a hefty high $30k for like a 97.Didn't hear much more of that.BTW I have been a motor trend subscriber since 97 more than 30k for a R33 GTR (the 97) |
that 2fast2furious syline is sweet
1100 hp on the bottle... got some pics of it on my website <~~~~~~ Towards the end of hot import nights section 3 12lb composite bottles = :D |

I cannot stand what craig lieberman has done to the beautiful skyline, he's the biggest ricer of them all...but then again if the cars were all plain and not "tricked out" then this movie wouldn't be a comedy.

Originally posted by jessa that would be craig libermann..turned this work of art into that "TRICKED OUT" SKYLINE WITH APC STICKERS, RACING STRIPES AND BOTTLES OF NAWWWZ IN THE BACK But anyways, I saw the movie, and aside from being a DSM commercial, it wasn't all that bad. In fact, it impressed me how good it was. My buddy and I wrote a review. I actually really liked the GT-R in it. It changed my opinion of neon. (oh and FYI, they do pay their respects to american muscle when Walker admits that his Evo and Tyrese's Eclipse won't be able to beat a Charger and an old Mustang) |

Skyline GT-R was never sold here cause of price and image. The old 300ZX was a 40k car and NO ONE was buying it. A GT-R would have been at least 60k. Prices kept going up as well. Nissan figured it would be too expensive.
Also, they did some research on the Acura/Honda NSX and found that the market is not too fond of 60-90k Japanese sports cars. People cannot justify spending that much on a Honda or Nissan. So they said no. Damn shame, the R32, R-33 and R-34 GT-Rs are some of my favorite autos. Amazing cars that can take gross abuse. Can be modded with a wrench and some gum. The G35 is the Skyline but no GT-R. Carlos Ghosen and co. promises the R-35 will be a global car. Though, with their cost cutting, I am afraid it might not be worthy of the GT-R name. We'll see. The paint jobs are for the movie. It's a movie, get over it. |
the car is 505 HP alone, I dont know If Ill belive that, but Ill believe the 600 extra, thats a 600 shot....I just wonder if the motor can handle it
