I'm planning on trading my 07 Si for 2009 Nissan skyline GT-R. Yeah, sure you are. haha forrealz. the fact that he has to trade in an si means he's full of shit, or had no idea it would cost that much  rice dreamer!!
I can picture it now.... all the dealerships lucky-enough to get these will be filled with traded in civics, spec-V's, lancer ralliarts, and celicas, from all the people that bought them "to wait" for the new skylines.
I mean... that's what everyone's beendriving these turds, and saving for, right?

The Skyline GTR will be competition to 911 Turbo,
Not to be a complete euro nutswinger, but no way in fuck would anybody with any sense buy that thing over a 911 Turbo. I mean, look at it.
Maybe it can compete with the C6 for people who hate domestics.
cheers, scott

I can think of one person, but only if he gets some deep lip VIP dubba dubbas on it. Besides...There's a LOT more room to hang curtains in it than a 911, come on.

I think the argument for Skyline is 911TT performance for Z06 money. Sure, it will likely be slower than a Z06 (like the 911TT is), but it will likely offer something that people will like.
As lame as it is, they should badge it an infiniti. People don't feel as bad spending 60-80k on an Infiniti.

I hope they use the Nissan badge, an Infinity skyline doesn't sound right. Plus you have to be a real dipstick if you think the names Japanese car makers give the luxury line mean anything.
I agree, crappy audio gear mfg does not equal badass car.

And the Porsche doesn't have twin turbos? Jesus Christ on a stick, do you know anything?
I bet it'd run with that V10 Z06.

Premium brands do typically offer features and "quality" that is better than the main brands and some people think that is worth the price premium. Same reason we got an Acura NSX and not a Honda NSX.
It's funny, because most people actually have no clue that Nissan = Infiniti, Honda = Acura and Toyota = Lexus.
I don't care either way, I just think it would be smarter for Nissan to badge it as an Infiniti because a lot of people are hesitant to spend big money on a low teired brand. I'm sure Viper guys get a lot of "It's still a Dodge". If I had the money, I wouldn't care, but a lot of people with the money do care.
Exactly my point. Take your example of the NSX, when it was first released here in the USDM, think back to the rest of Honda's lineup at that time and what they'd accomplished in the market over the past two decades. The public's image of Honda was economical, grocery getters & commuters. They HAD to create an upscale brand, simply because of what Honda's name and image was associated with here. It wasn't because it was an upscale, feature laden car, with a list of gadgets as long as your arm, it was because nobody was gonna pay nearly 100K for a Honda.

LOL @ SiCrazy. You're a fucking tool. Go back to studying for your G.E.D. and asking about which CAI to get for mad powarz. You think im a freakin looser, hahahahahaha...NOT. I'm making over a 100grand so I think I won't have a problem buying a nice car. So its you who has to study your homework or you will end up owning a civic for the rest of your life, lol.
You make over 100k a year but you bought a Honda Civic to "hold you over until the Skyline comes out"... a car that you have absolutely no idea what it's going to be like in real life?
Dude, in the 7 years I have on this website, you are just like every other riceboi teenager living in a dreamworld with pipe dreams.
Shut the fuck up already.

It was a joke man. Back when a lot of import fans were all about hp/l, twisties and rusty domestics, they would argue about how the fast cars in America are shit (for example, a C5) and in Japan, 1000 hp skylines and Supra's are everywhere on stock engines with just a couple mods.
I get the joke - although i might not have without the emoticon. I just wanted to throw out some useful real life information since not many people have it with RB26DETT's/GT-R's in general. They are cars like anything else. The HICAS systems are prone to failure especially on the R32. Not fun to be driving the hell out of the car and all of a sudden the rear steering rack jumps about 3 degrees out of the blue. The ATTESA awd system is awesome for everything from drag launches to autocross to road racing, also awesome that you can easily disable it for 100% rwd fun - not so easy on an EVO/STi. The engine is a weak point beyond sustained 6.5-7k especially on early R32's because of many, many factors, and should really never be pushed beyond 550/600hp w/out a serious rebuild. Its a fairly small displacement motor that usually generates a flat torque curve with correct turbo sizing, so you need to rev the piss out of it (9k is usually good) to make good #'s. The crankshaft oil pump drive gear is too narrow on the earlier motors, and the oil pump is not a good design either. Good oil pumps cost upwards of $600, and the machine work to the crank to accept a wider collar is not cheap.
The piston rings, ringlands, and finally the pistons themselves are all weak points. The rod bolts are a weak point. The head needs porting and valve radiusing above 600hp along with the whole intake tract until the plenum. The whole airflow sensing system needs to be upgraded, not to mention that the stock turbos run out of steam at about 350whp.
Some people think its such an absolutely amazing car that can do a billion hp with stock indestructable motors. the truth is that the RB in particular is very finicky and doesn't like alot of things that usually make sense, like larger intake/exhaust port sizes or lots of increased bore, and they love huge cams with lots of revs. Doing anything with them requires an incredible amount of time, money, and very small hands.

Yeah i hate this Argument also,the only thing nissan is in competition with the 911 is performance based,not refinement or anything else.Differant class,same as the z06 is the be all end all sports car.Put a 4seater 911 turbo vs a track version corvette ie z06 then yeah its gonna beat it no problem.But its always gonna be the guy who wants to buy a porsche is gonna buy a porsche,hes not gonna go look at a 911 turbo and be like "hmm i don t like it ,lets go to nissan and see what they got."
differant cars,differant classes..differant buyers.Compare the Skyline to a low end gt car like say the baby jag,or baby aston.Put the porsche against its rivals say Aston,ferrari.Put the corvette vs f430 challenge,viper acr (if they have one),911 gt2 ...track version cars .
And for the skyline guys ,yes i like the car can t wait to see one and drive it. And for the porsche guys,my favorite brand awesome car for what its purpose is And for the corvette guys,best bang for the buck forsure love the car.
that covers my bases i think...
