The Nissan Skyline GT-R is basically Nissan's answer for the EVO,STi, etc. it has an incredible AWD system, it has a twin turbo'd straight six that came underrated from the factory. it has a bulletprooof drive train and is fast as hell right out of the box. the car is known as Godzilla over in japan and the reason they are so special in America is up until the recent release of the R35, you could not buy a GT-R off the showroom floor, you could only import rRHD versions straight from Japan and then get them converted at a relativly high price by a company that would then have the car basically in a gray area odf the DMV, many skylines have been repo'd because they haven't met code and it's very difficult to obtain and keep one legally. But if you can you'll have everyone on your nuts, I've seen an R34 and an R32 in person and they are incredible machines. the RB36DETT is easily one fo my favorite engines ever concieved.
