Paris who ever you are think you ought to think how far they have come in the automobile industry , and what you drive in your automobile what ever it is , the skyline has had it for years or been testing it or making it better.
And in the event you ever get to drive an std 300bhp skyline or more , down to get your paper or go to an event or to the track one thing is positive you will wear a smirk on your face , because you know what you have .

Hi All, I currently drive a Mitsubishi 3000GT(GTO) and have to say when you have a lot of power, having a lot of electronics standing by to help out when you screw up is very reassuring. I think the Vspec sounds delicious and would love to own one — guess I’ll have to wait a few years and get one 2nd hand.
The Universal hate figure that is Paris has every right to post his opinion no matter how wrong, foolish and reactionary it might be, I do think now is the time he should hand in his drivers licence as he probably should take the bus with all of us petrol heads on the roads! We are scary with our big fast cars.
’Nuff said, Japan keep ‘em coming!

Guy’s & Gall’s, interesting comments. This is evoking the same kind of passion you get on the GT-R Forum, which proves the point.……it’s all about passion.
I would challenge any passionless individual to play passenger in my R34 GT-R round the full GP circuit at Brands.…..and not get a woody (or female equivalent!!!)
I’m afraid you would have to be clinically dead not to feel something
And to me that’s what it’s all about in this sanitised, Health and safety world we live in
Go on Paris.….spoil yourself.….it may prove to be a journey of self discovery.…LOL

Ok wait a minute guys , and ladys .…. Paris has an opinion , but this is why the cars like the skyline were and are made to prove a point over the old school way of thinking .
Think about it the italians , body lines to die for engines that sound great .Americans big v8s in all sorts body types , great fun but room for improvement .The English had Jaguar , aston martin etc known for great looking cars , good suspension and a good turn of speed and then along came The Japenese who gave then all something to think about . And they do it so well .

Paris who ever you are .… i think you should think how far we have come in the car industry , and what you drive in your car what ever it is , the skyline has had it for years or been testing it or making it better.
And if you ever get to drive an std 300bhp +/- skyline or more , down to get your paper or go to an event or to the track …one thing is for sure you will wear a smile on your face , because you know what you have .
I owned one , my wife drove it , my dad of 70 years old drove it .… we all loved and it satisfied our driving styles .
So Paris good luck , your comments did stir us up .…but really you don‘t know what your missing .….…..

Paris

All I can say is you are an air thief — GO AWAY and play with your handbag/manbag whatever and leave the lads and girls that enjoy and appreciate the beauty, craftsmanship and pure engineering genius of this exceptional car to enjoy it without having to listen/read your banal comments.

I remember very well when the garage I managed changed from selling British Leyland too Datsun (Nissan). Over night the warranty claims disappeared. The quality control was just amazing. The old 120Y engine and others in the range had such fine tolerance control on the engine you could not hear them when idling. The gearboxes were like silk. One mistake Nissan made was a collaboration with Alfa . Alfa made a Nissan Cherry with an Alfa boxer 1.2 engine. Compared with the Japanese Cherry 1.3 it was just awful. The quality was dreadful and the engine had no torque which is what made the Japanese cars such a delight to drive. The reason why modern cars are made better than they used to be is because of the Japanese. We have alot to thank them for. GT-R is just one example.

I own a Focus ST but luckily have had the pleasure of driving a few Skylines and was mightely impressed. If i could afford to buy,run or insure one i’d have one now and would keep it forever,they are fantastic cars. The new GTR is the ultimate dream car for me. Any one with a Skyline gets my respect,no daft bodykits mind you! Keep them original,long live the Skyline.…..
