Wow? Over rated? haha.... Jk they are pretty bad *** but not worth the hype imo.

They shoulda just released the R34 in US trim.

I was wondering if there was a giant meet some where cause I saw like a convoy of 30 cars heading south on I-5 a few days ago. All skylines, 240's, and fd's. The vw skyline is on streetfire...poor poor car

yes the r32, r33 and r34 are skylines.

but the gt-r is a gt-r ibut most fan boys call it a skyline

better example, would you call an se3p an rx-7?

GTR is not a skyline reason being. not inline 6. the skyline model died when they stopped with the inline 6 and went v6

SO the nissan Skyline GT (aka G35) isn't a skyline either then, even though the name clearly states that it is, because it has a V6?

I wouldn't know what to call an Se3p because I don't know what that is. Rx-8 maybe?

Either way it's not an Rx7 because it is obviously an Rx8 hence the name Rx8.

All the tight pants do is starve his brain of much needed oxygen and blood thus causing him to make asinine statements.

I've never gotten the SE3P thing. It clearly says FE in the RX-8's VIN.

exactly my response, the GT-R is not a Skyline hence the name GT-R.

now dont confuse it with a Nissan skyline in GT-R trim(c10, c110, r30-r34).

The G35's are still "skylines" and are sold as such in japan.

The GT-R is just different. Skylines can be different kinds of trims. GT-Rs are the fast ones.

Different Chassis. Nissan GT-R != Infiniti G35/7. R34 GTS-T and R34 GT-R same.

Oh, and the blue "R34" seems to be a bug with a skyline body built around it.
