Hi fellas,

I know everyone has their own opinions so this thread is not to criticise any particular Skyline model but rather to pay respects to each and why people feel their chosen Skyline looks best.

Here are the basic rules to this thread; 1) we are only discussing looks, so please post reasons as why you feel a particular Skyline model looks best, 2) post up photos as examples and, 3) it can be any Skyline range including the R35 GTR so let your comments fly!!

I'll start. I've always been torn between the R33 and the R34 GTR, but overall I have to say the R33 GTR wins in the looks department. Sure, people say it's a widebody boat etc, but I love the aggressive stance, evenly-size huge oven-top rear lights and the R33 GTR front bar is vintage Skyline. Moreover, the body shape of the R33 just looks so much more aggressive with the pump guards and lines that complete the look and the R33 GTR rear wing looks toughest out of all the Skylines in my opinion.

I like (-er dislike) how you've put a greenery/forest background to each of the R33 GT-Rs > stuck the R32 in a paddock > R34 and R35 in the midst of a garage/factory theme with plastic water pipes running down behind the cars...

Hypnotherapists seem to pick up on what messages someone's subconscious conveys!! :rofl2:

I know it's a bit odd, but I would have picked the R33 GT-R as having the best balanced look anyway.

I'm sure that someone will bring their R32 GT-R out of the paddock and put it where it belongs - LOL

Hi fellas,

Terry: you got me!! I'm biased as hell for the R33 GTR. I own a R33, but next I would get a R34 GTR. But overall, I would also say that the R33 GTR looks best.

Wil: you are spot on. I just ransomed everything but I think Terry knows that subconciously I was conveying a hidden message.

Sinista: similiar but totally different as we are debating purely looks here and posters are asked to comment why.

Keep it coming fellas. Post up some pics too!!

ok then. For me it has to be the 34 GTR. Reason why....

It is so so easy to make it look super mean. There are just so many examples out there that look absolutely fantastic at any angle. It keeps the skyline origin unlinke the looks of the 35. The 33 can look good but there are only limited examples and you barely see any on the road that look good. The 32 is great, just a little old now. Every time you see a 34 GTR on the rd it looks great and super mean, its hard to find an example that doesnt look good.

I will agree with you on the point you make that the R34 maintains the Skyline look unlike the R35. Unlike many people, I am not a fan of the R35 in terms of looks at all...looks like a 350/370z on steroids. Not my cup of tea. Ok, can you post up one example of a R34 that you admire or like?

For me it would have to be BNR34s that look the best..

If you ask many skyline fans the question, 'which is your favourite skyline?' a large majority i would think would say the Z-tune no?...

Based on a 34R, which has an awesome stance, sharp lines and curves in all the right places, and a presence that the others seem to lack for me...

Just my thoughts anyways, and obviously im a little bias ha...

It's hard to fault the R34 Z-Tune. Definitely sexci!!

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
