TurboX Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Ever seen a variable valve timing cam setup in any original R32 GTR RB26? People that write this stuff for a living should do more research...

scathing Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Motoring Journos doing any research would make a happy change. Especially those that write for generic news publications, not dedicated automotive periodicals. Even then, most journos are useless. And, reading through the article, there's so much wrong with it I don't even know where to begin. I'd expect this kind of ignorance over on Carsguide, but I thought Fairfax papers were a bit better. But, then again, Drive isn't exactly a bastion of accuracy either.

chinkeboi Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 the gtr is a "pretty" car what i couldnt stand were these lines: But the GT-R wasn't a sensuous looker. It was quite an upright two-door. While it had the obligatory wings and spoilers, its alloy wheels and overall lines are undramatic.Inside is even more pedestrian with lots of generic Nissan grey plastic, although there are great seats and a lovely steering wheel.
