and to say the 33 doesnt look like any skyline at all....its as close as you're gonna get (appearence wise) to an R34, without it being an R34

32 is more like a 33, just enlarged

31 (HR imports) and 34 put side by side have a lot of similar styling influences IMO.

Just some of the reade 1/4 lines and what now are very shaply

Ill say one thing I would by a 350z over it any day. I will treat is as a work in progress, it looks a lot better than the sketches so hopefully they will make the same headway with the actual production vehicle.

i reckon it will change over the next year

it is a concept and it will be heavily scrutinised by the public, journo's etc.

Loz

True.

The back looks unreal.

Would have been better if it had R34 style or similar headlights.

Looks great, with great potential.

Engine specs anyone?

yep, sadly i'm pretty sure the rb will not be seen after r34.

judging by the quad exhaust the new gtr will more than likely be V8 too...

Turbo v8 right?

Best of both worlds.....

Like most comments...I don't mind the overall look but that rear pillar will have to be worked on as the angles just look all wrong.

As for the engine the quads do suggest a V8 but I hope they stick with tradition and turbo it. Would also make it easy to sell in america by just removing the turb's...

while there's been plenty of talk about an 8 powering the new cars, i reckon we'll see a twin turb v6. nissan has poured plenty into their latest crop of v6's and, by all accounts, they aint too bad. one thing for sure, the inline 6 is dead *kicks and screams and flails about unhappily*

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
