I think its the proto for the v36 skyline

it looks good, but keep in mind it is only a proto. It doesn't have the feel of a skyline more a 350

I miss the circle tail-lights :ermm:

i think the era of the cars we are all used to and love have passed, i guess we can't live in the 90's foreva :cheers:

would it be available in a turbo version??

They sell these in korea, dont they? cept they call them a Hyundai Tiburon....

Eeerrrrrrm NO. You are thinking of the Tiburon made by Hyundai, nothing to do with Nissan :)

I like the G35 though, nice car. Yeah it's pretty much a replacement for the GTS-T.

One thing we all need to admit is the Skyline as we know it is dead. Welcome to Euro market....

it aint the same anymore - i read that the designer said the new gtr is not really affiliated with the skyline name cos its entirely different.....(i.e the 32-34 gtrs had something in common with the gts's/gt's and the gtsts/gtt's - eg the lights or some of the looks).

Either way, adz is right, the skyline is dead - but perhaps the new model could bring out a new luv affair with the gtr name.

doesnt look bad, but doesnt look like a skyline...same with the GTR Proto...looks sexy n all, but doesnt make me think skyline....more 350z

dont you mean the 350z reminds you of the Skyline or G35 seeing as that came first and not the other way around?

they just have such an aggressive look to them, and look like a more purpose built sports/ race car. I personally would've bought one, but there just a little on the old side.. kinda wanted something newer, still think the 33 looks awesome or i wouldn't have got one lol

Too bad history doest repeat it self in the automotive industry. At least our generation can live to tell the tales of the best of the skyline series. ;) Anyways if nissan really plans on making a gts, i'd doubt they call it a GTS, more like a plain skyline, as it has nothing to do with the GTR, nothing in common. If we prey enough nissan might through in a turbo, but best, a In-line 6, the true JDM style, as the V6 are already pretty much more powerful than RB25 series. VQ30.

Long live the In-line 6!!!!!!!

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.

      @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.

      One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
