Saw some chatter regarding this in another thread but only pix available.

I have found some footage of the New GTR in testing at the Nurburgring. Privately recorded, This isnt any offical release of media. (spy footage) Teaser for all you fellow Skyline lovers :thumbsup:/

As far as I am concerned... the only true Skylines were the R32, R33 & R34... the rest are not Skyline like...

That's why it's called the Nissan GTR, not Skyline.

Believe it or not when the R34 came out there was a lot of people saying that that wasn't a real skyline as well. Probably the same for the R33, R32 etc.

As for the true Skyline, I think the C10 owns that name. The Skyline was around way before the r32.

Before the turbos Skylines were N/A including the legendary C10. They then went turbo and are now going back to N/A, who knows what will happen next. As for factory performance the V35 350GT Coupe, is a better performer all round compared to the R34 Gtt. Quicker out of the box, much much better interior.

As much as some Skyline lovers, love the turbo's, I'm pretty sure Nissan is more interested in selling as much cars as possible, instead of catering to the relatively small, grey import market in Australia, and other countires. All you have to do is look at how successful the V35 (G35) has been in the US, and you can bet your a$$ that they won't be going to an R34 like Skyline any time soon.

Personally I think the new GTR finally has the body and look to match it's performance.

But I'm probably a bit biased, seeing as I've bought a V35 :-)

    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
