"GTS = non turbo
GTST = 2.0 litre turbo but not 4wheel drive
GT-R = 11 seconds stock.. 4wheels drive twin turbo rb26 godzilla!
and yes that was a GT-R unless he changed the front-bar and put a gt-r spoiler, which is also possible.. "

It's not a GTS or a GTS-T, that's for sure.
Unless he changed the grill as well as the front lights, the wing, and the badge (not to mention that a lot of GTS's have four dours).
PS, I'm pretty sure I've seen more Skylines (GT-Rs, GTSs, GTS-Ts, four-doors) in person than pretty much any of you have, so I feel that I'm qualified to talk about this subject.

Not much of a race. That was a real GTR, not that you can tell the difference from a GTS-T in a crappy video shot at night. Most GTS-T type Ms coming to Canada have some kind of body kit and grill mod to make them look like GTRs anyways. Anyways, here is the GTR driver`s description of the "race".
Toughguy 
LOL...yeah thats me
humm....race or no race.
no race but i did try steping on it once, but was suffereing serious ignition problmes so it was basically useless. everytime here hear my rev's rise, he'd hit it
I know the guy in the civic and that car is no joke though, made 470whp
that was also in CO, i live in Cali now and the car is running good, so maybe i'll find a 400 hp civic and have at it...lol
hope that clears up a few things,
Oh and thanks for the comment Marc, all it takes is a little soap and water...LOL
But i guarantee your car looks better than mine now,....

even if that statement was true, that an enzo will run 11 or 10 stock or whatever, you dont buy an enzo cause it CAN run 10-11's stock.. you buy it cause its a ****** ferrari, a ferrari enzo.. a car on a level by itself..
hahaha
I dont think the skyline was racing either. I think he was just messing around with the civic. The civic still might have beat him, but from the vid it didnt look like the skyline was even getting on it. The civic walked on him way to hard for the skyline to be actually racing. If that civic was an 11 sec car, and the GTr's are like 13s, on the highway i just dont think the civic would run away that fast.
..... you mustve skipped a few pages, the GT-R guy was not racing, he posted on another forum, he said he tapped it once or twice but never actually raced. but said the honda has 470whp

BTW the skyline is supposedly making 600whp. So no, the skyline wasn't really racing.

[QUOTE=kt411gcn]Civics, like any other fwd car, shine at high speeds. They don't get traction from a stop, or low rolls, especially 300+ whp civics.
Any turbo'ed car shines at high speeds. Our 7's shine at high speeds. A regular NA civic wont do **** on the highway.

FYI, it's an EF hatch. you can tell by the rear passenger windows.

if you ask me the civic was rollin and when they spotted the skyline they pull out the cam. I watch this without sound but the traffic was right behind the cars when the civic punched it.!!! and the skyline diver hopped on it to show the civic he's got juice too!!! I honestly don't think it was a race!!! but i didn't hear any sound so I could be wrong!
