Hey there,Just wanting a few people's opinions about the 4dr skyline...i do not own one but do plan on it here in the future and was wondering about how the extra weight of a 4dr might slow down my performance and boost? will it or does it all depend on the Hp? Thanks,

The BNCR33 had an anniverssary model that was a 4 door GTR. Up the power and 4 doors don't matter anymore. If you are interested in drifting the 4 door is a good platform

To an extent.

The longer wheelbase can be a bit ... unpredictable sometimes. But if done right, can be very predictable. Plus, if you want to drift a 4dr, you'll need more steering angle because of the fact that while your car is longer, to be able to pull the same angle as a shorter car isn't a problem, but because you're longer, it doesn't look nearly as extreme for the longer rig.

My .02 cents is ... No offense or anything. If you have to ask that question, whether the 4dr will be slower. Then you literally should stick with something more conventional.
