I have never gotten into trouble in high speed corners in any of the R32s I have had and I go extremely fast. The Skyline has a much more precision feel to it compared to the Silvia. I would draw a parallel of a Corvette compared to a Mustang handlingwise. One thing I don't like is when I slide an R32 it hangs on for a long time then just breaks completely loose while a Silvia starts fade out very predictably.

It's fun watching the Silvia guys jump into a Skyline and spinout repeatedly while they try to learn the breakpoint. Almost as fun as Hachiroku gurus trying to adjust to boost lag.
