Holy CRAP, that thing is fast! Yeh, those Skyline's can be real closet sleepers if you aren't familiar with 'em. My buddy here says they also come in AWD, although I don't know if that's fact or not.... that thing wouldn't touch anything you drive, Richard, but yeh, it'd kill me!! That's for sure.

To be honest, though, I just can't seem to get too excited about the sound of those imports. I DO admire the technology and work that has gone into it, for sure, but me? I'm ol' school V8 boy.

WICKED video! Thanks for sharin'!

Yeh, there's one here in town that catches some guys by surprise at times. But, it still looks like an import, so.....

Theres a guy in Chicago (Marko) thats got a white Supra, you might have seen videos of it, but it ran mid 8s consistantly and it was a street car. Dynoed 1100ish whp, dynoed 1456 when the boost spiked up to 50some psi, but it didnt break. Thats a sweet car, looks totally stock, well, besides the huge tires.

I just got back from 2 years in Japan, ( Im in the NAVY ) I hate skylines, they are a dime a dozen there, when ever a new guy checked in my command on the island the first thing they want to do is get a GTR....I told them wait 2 weeks and see if you still want to get one. Then you have those die hard guys that want to import them back to the states...and pay the 17,000$ import/conversion tax. I didnt get into the car scene over there, unfortunatly it isnt like Tokyo Drifting I bought a Porsche 951 when I was in Germany, and went through all the hassel of importing that back.....NEVER AGIAN, check out the pic, thats my vette, porsche, and bike! cheers!!!
