Hands down the skyline-34 w/ its four wheel drive would out perform a rustang, stock. And most certainly on a road course w/ attessa suspensions and such, instead of a rear wheel, running more torque than it can handle, especially in tighter turns. On the 1/4 the GTR34 has a stock 0-60 in under 4.7 sec, and a quarter at about 11.9 sec average.

The rustang GT, roush edition runs 4.9 seconds 0-60 stock. A quarter-mile sprint in 12.7 seconds. The skidpad performance of 0.96 g to 0.98 g with the standard tires. Premium version, costs $48,975 (According to Autoweek)

Honestly, whats better twin turbo() or supercharged with a 5.4 liter gas gussler. You will get better and more performance from a turbo charger than a super.

If your talkin moded, then there is still no comparison when a skyline 34 in NZ ran over 214 mph, and 1338 horses, stage 4 turbo system and such. If the rustang beat a 214 land speed record (1 1/2 years ago) then show me figs and sites then I will stand corrected, but until that day GTR will remain supreme.

I must say, the skylines in this forum are beautiful mechines. I envy those who drive such a magnificant automobile. Looking at doing a gtr-33 as a project car. Yet, we will probably wait for Jap spec GTR-35s in Spring of 04'.

That 87' Rustang wanna 1/4 me with 2.0 bar boost on a 240sx, TT, mounted into a 1990 Acoord. (Will have pictures soon)

You have a mph speed of 148, and your in the 10's, man you really must be slipping. What is your 60ft times?


11.9 for a stock R34

My car has only 9k in it, and it will beat that over priced Roush stang. Let me dump another 40k into my car and see what # I get then.

Are you in England?

40k in a stang, why bother? I could build two cars to run in the 9s with that amount of cash.

Thanks Gonthrax for pointing out to everyone that I should of used the edit option

I do not think smitty has this tt acoord since he has not replied.

Like I have said before, with a little knowledge, a lot of money you can make any vehical fast, but everything falls back on the laws of physics.

I assume sense you say 90Gs you are interested in an R34 V-spec. In nz you can get them for about the same price you can in Japan (Perhaps a little more) which is anywere from 30kUSD to 50kUSD depending how hard you look Keep in mind that if a car seems to cheap, it was probly raced either on the streets of Japan, or on a drag strip and then sold before somthing could give. Now this is not always the case but it's somthing to check out.

What questions do ya have? Just post um up and i"m sure they will get answered by me or SkyUSA or someone else

Dude....you live in Bowling Green. I lived in Union, KY for a while. About 15 min from Cincinnati.

Yea...I found a place that imports Skylines that has a R34 Vspec for over 90G. Someday......

I'm in culinary school, so when I get out, I can go just about anywhere I want...maybe I'll come work there and get me a Skyline. Work for a year or so, then bring it back. Just my first thoughts last night.

Hey, it's all gravy, as long as the question gets answered


Z: How long have you been in culinary school? I've been in Union a few times, just passing through though, on my way to Cinci
