Skyline "Wow" Factor

[Dragon Humper]

turboed08 gave me a quick ride in his gts-t a few weeks ago and my god that thing went. i STILL have a smile on my face.



It's to bad you don't live here, I think you would have a look of terror on your face and a little yellow in your pants after a ride in mine. The thrust is almost F16 like with the AWD and a 7000rpm clutch drop. I usually smoke all 4 of them through 1st and part way through 2nd.

I need better tires.....LOL.

Sounds amazing. Is that street boost levels? Did you hack the ecu and dial up the 1000 hp dealy?

Broken parts are all up to the driver. Operator error is the route of most failures. I've blown 3rd gear 4 times now but the tranny is still kickin', it's all about being one with the car and knowing that things aren't going well and backing out of it before something gets destroyed. Besides, I'm from the school of "if your not breaking stuff, your not having fun". There's a ton of used parts out there now for these cars, it's not like it was 5 years ago.

I have a shelf of shame with all my busted parts over the years, I've learned most of my hard lessons......LOL.

there are plenty of times when i'm driving my car by myself, just putting along, and i think to myself; "**** i'm driving a skyling GTR!" I too was exactly in your shoes, i made a bet to all my friends that the first car i would buy would be a skyline, or at the very least something RHD. I realized that it's not the most practical for me as a daily, so i was forced to buy a truck as my first vehicle. (since it's technically not a car )I love coming through on promises i make to myself!

In fact i'm going to get off my ass and go enjoy my car!

[GT_Lafl-R]

I just want a GTR, so bad.

I'm still quite a bit of $$$ away, though. I'll have to put more effort into learning how to drive stick, as well.

[M13]

Funny thing, some chicks had stopped beside my skyline, and they were going crazy when they saw it. Thought it was an awesome car and took pictures

Trust me, it was just the RHD thing they took pictures for.


Been there, Done that, even got tagged on FB.

I have not yet had a girl who appreciates these cars.

[BCSavage]

I realized that it's not the most practical for me as a daily

mine is my daily, I drop off both my kids at daycare with it and I get groceries with it

[MikeRWK]

i pulled up by a friend one day and his buddy is parked beside him, well jordan turns to his buddy noting my car and says "This is as jdm as it gets".Everytime people notice its rhd i just look at them with an evil smirk

whatcha going to do for wheels in the winter?

[corey_r32]

the wow factor hits when the gas is to the floor

[PopolZ]

I've had mine for a year minus two weeks and every time I see a skyline I still have the "niiiiiiice a skyline" thought then I realize I'm driving one

I do not drive mine that often though... only did 33xxKM since I bought her.

[CanadianGTR]

The WOW progression is as follows:

WOW RHD IS WEIRD
WOW THIS CAR HAS TONNES OF POWER
WOW THIS IS AWESOME
WOW I NEED TO MAKE MORE POWER
WOW I SPUN A BEARING
WOW REPAIRS ARE EXPENSIVE ON THIS THING

[MikeRWK]

Mines as follows:

WOW RHD IS WEIRD
WOW THIS CAR GETS LOOKS
WOW THIS IS AWESOME
WOW FEELS LIKE MY CLUTCH IS SLIPPING
WOW MY CLUTCH IS ******
WOW THIS SUCKS
