non-GTR skyline not that great in terms of performance?

[toby1234]

for my first car i was planning to get an fd rx7 of the later years, but they are pretty damn hard to find where i live but the r33 gts-t skylines are quite common and not expensive, but i read that a non-gtr skyline isn't too good in terms of performance. is this true?

Where did you read that they arent good performers?

whoops, sorta wrong section now that i think about it but then again it is sorta in the right place. anyway back on topic, i was reading it in some forum where ppl were arguing about muscle vs import cars. btw can an r33 gts-t take on a muscle car and have fair chance?

sure.. granted it involves turning and the "muscle car" isn't build for turning.

so in straight line, it will most likely lose right? btw any of u guys know the price of insurance for a turbo car in australia?

well v8 cars are made for goin fast in a straight line- doller for doller (atleast in us) they're the best for the task sime aftermarket is cheap for SBCs and fox body mustangs.
