Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has seen any skylines in movies / anime / etc?

Obviously the Fast 'n Furious duo and Initial D

I came across this other reference in an unlikely anime yesterday: Full Metal Panic series 2. It's an anime about a military fanboy and giant robots. Probably one of the last places you'd see such a fine example of automotive engineering :rofl:

Can someone tell if it's a GT, GT-T, or GT-R?

There was a tread on this a while back.

Some HK and J films with Sylines.

One called Infernal Affairs had the baddies in an R33 GTR. Another one called 'legend of speed 2' had an R32 I think.

I saw a japanese movie on SBS a while back, it was about Japanese surf culture and it followed the lives of a teenage deaf and mute couple who became accepted because of their surfing ability. Cant remember what it was called.

But enough of that, one of the young cool surfers had a R32 GTSt. The film was made in 1991 so it must have been series 1.

Yeah, there's plenty of Japanese movies/TV shows featuring Skylines. In fact, there was an article in the news last month:

Someone was killed/injured during the shooting of a new cop drama for TV. The accident happened when the stunt driver driving an R34 GTT lost control and spun out into a crowd on onlookers!:P

..The show has since been cancelled I believe and the producers arrested for shooting without the correct permits...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Rezz · Posted

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
