Why the hell would you want to buy that car?

And "transponder"? wtf?

No car has quite the same reputation as Nissan's Skyline GT-R. It's not officially sold in the United States, barely qualifies as compact, and is built with its steering wheel on the wrong side, but the all-wheel-drive, sequentially twin-turbocharged Skyline GT-R has managed to become a legend in America. That the producers of "2 Fast 2 Furious" ("2F2F") recognized that is at least somewhat encouraging--isn't it?

See that point there in bold? That's why these idiots should not be allowed to write about cars...The RB26 uses parallel turbine configuration.

Stupid people make me cry.

Neal, you slay me. I didn't even read the article, just remembered reading somewhere that they'd actually de-tuned it.

[Gold Digger]

Yeah, there were a few things that they did for that car...like removed the front drive shafts.

Just goes to show you what people will do to sell a movie these days.

Oh, I'll see if I can find a really funny video on the new GT-R.

[Gold Digger]

Ok...took some searching to find the video, but I got it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-fOoi9yhk0

Start listening at the 2:30 mark of the video...

"When this car orignally came out in 1971..."

Wrong, Junior, the GT-R debuted in 1969 as a four door.

"...it was dubbed Godzilla because it was such an incredible performer..."

The Godzilla moniker didn't come to life till the R32 GT-R dominated race tracks in Japan and Australia, the later of which actually gave it the name.

"...you got supercar performance, and it was capable of beating cars like the venerable Porche 911 Twin Turbos back in the day..."

Now, let's look back at this, shall we...for one, when the Hakosuka GT-R made it's appearance, it only raced here in Japan, and won 29 races from 29 starts against other Japanese sports cars. I don't think the GT-R ever say any other real world competition from any makers outside Japan till the R32.

People like Charlie Romero lose all credibility in the history of automobiles like the GT-R when the assclown can't even get his history correct.

I actually quit watching that video the first time right after those points. It wasn't till now that I finished the video. I may not know all there is to know about the Skyline/GT-R, but my history of the car is pretty well versed.

By the way, sorry for the threadjack.

By the way, sorry for the threadjack.

You mean mercy-killing?

LOL @ the video. "Peak torque is, like 3500 to 5500 RPM, somethin like that."

"I think this is like over 500 horsepower."
