Sport -> GTR
GXL -> GT-Limited
GTU -> GT-X
Base -> GT
GTUs -> Infini
Turbo II -> GT-Limited (?)

something like that... not a direct comparison, but it is probably as close to a equilivent - as if.. model.

a US FC would be unique in japan no doubt, being that its north american spec and LHD lol
I dont think they had that NA bullshit in japan lol

in some jdm magazines, some ads list cosmetic parts, and our clear FTP lense looked pretty unique over there i guess since they where listed next to headlight upgrades and clear corners for other cars lol

I thought GTR was 86-88 and GTX was 89-91 (I think GT-R and GT-X are the same as T2's in the states)

Comparing NA's To Factory Turbo cars isn't a good idea...

The 87-88 GXL's are different from 89-91 GXL's in a few ways (older seems to be better because of LSD, Lighter interior and better suspension components...less plastic than S5 car's in the states)
