NSX looks pimp, but R34 all the way!

Sorry but the Skyline can drive circles around the NSX. The R34 outperforms the NSX in every aspect. No competition....

I love the R34, Top Secret makes some monsters out of these cars. One of my favorites here: 2 HKS-GT-3037 turbos, F50 Brembos and crazy HP

I'm really really hoping that they make a new GT-R on the current Skyline platform, the G35. You think people love the G35 Coupe now, just imagine the GT-R powertrain transplanted into it. . . if that's even possible. Man. . . I'm drooling.

An R33 or R34 would be a nice adition to the GS.

I'm torn between the two. I guess it really just depends on what you want. For the skyline, the car enthusiast world will envy you for having one, but average people wont know what it is. For the NSX, its a sexy exotic looking car that most people know of. But i have to admit, an R34 is friggen hot. It looks soo nice. As far as performance goes, the skyline would be easier to mod because it has a wider range of aftermarket support. Good luck on your decision! You cant go wrong either way

I've always liked the R33... Someone told me that the R33 doesnt get much respect anymore in Japan, is this true?

The R33 has the performance goods, it just didn't have the looks. IMO, it looks great, very sleeper, great proportions. The public though, likes the rash looks of the R-34.

I don't care if it's badged Nissan (I prefer it to be a Nissan) or Infiniti, a GT-R is a car I could rock.
If the G35c were AWD, and with people putting turbos in them, you have your R-35 right there.
