How come nobody shows no love to the Skyline sedan? all i hear is about the coupe.

imo.... sedan > coupe

well yeah a HIGHLY MODIFIED sedan like that D1 car is badass...

because most people dont give much tuning attention to a sedan.that is why you hear about the coupes more often.there are some nice skyline sedans though. i guess the nost popular would be that Blitz D1 special. i believe tehre are a couple bad *** Autech tuned 4 doors that were available.

Most of the rational would be...why tune a Altima when you can get a 240sx or 300zx to tune. No offence to any Altima owners:thinker

Just harder to get more out of it (Handling wise)

If I lived in Japan or Australia or somewhere where both were sold Id probably cop the sedan. I love sedans and the Skyline is just so yumm...

i like the r32 sedan....hcr32 was the code IIRC.

I guess it's an issue of weight and handling. It is a similar concept with the Acura Integra GSR sedan. It weighs slightly more than the coupe and its handling is sub par.

Sedan... Coupe, who cares. Id take either. Its a matter of taste. Most of us dont have the money for either. There have been so many Skyline poststhis weekend.

I'll tackle this question. I was going to tune my Altima because I LOVED the styling on my 2nd gen. But alas, it was autotragic transmission AND ODBII. JWT couldnt/wouldnt crack the ECU, so gettin any real power is hard without doing a engine swap from an OBDI Altima. I researched it a little, but gave up. autotragic wasnt happening. There is a cheap Z32 by me that has been chilling forever. One problem...automatic. So, I sold myt Altima. I still have mywifes 01 Alty as a daily driver. I may make it my pimp ride. Get some nice coilovers. Intake, Header, exhaust, pulleys. Depends. If we trade it in for a PAthfinder, well no sense in modding it Even my stock Altima with a no name nuffler was *** raping most of the civics around here.

I didn't know they had a sedan. But then again, I have never actually seen one in real life, either.

your a quick one.

Skyline sedan is OK in my book, I know about them, but I prefer the coupe. It's a sports car thing. Just like I'm down with both G35s and G35c, but I like the coupe way better.
