alrigth guys, i didnt mean for everybody to get on my case, i wasnt angry or anything before,lol. those were just numbers i got from nowhere else than wikipedia (figures). i know theyre both skylines, etc. in my mind the r-xx and gt-r's have so much more of a legacy than our cars and thats y i never think of them in the same category.

I was more in reference to UltimateGee27's comment about it looking to be not that impressive getting on it.

oh ok. lol and i just found out. the gt-r was rated at 270-80 to the crank in JAPAN, because back then japan restricted hp in cars. but nissan was bull****ing. numerous dynoes show that the hp is closer to 325 to the flywheel. just a though id share.

Sry, I was just being an lol. But seriously the GTR as sick as they are, they are totally overrated even if their power was underrated from the factory. I'd take a Supra or RX7 over one any day of the week. RB vs. 2JZ, meh. There are videos on streetfire and youtube showing stock and lightly modded GTR's doing poorly against all kinds of cars, nothing special. Ultimate's little run in is defintely believeable is what I was trying to say.

As for G35sedan comments the GTR was actually around 300hp at the fly.

2slow2bfurious. A all stock Supra, RX7 and Skyline are not that impressive from some of todays standards for mind blowing speed. It is what can be done with each of them that is the impressive part. I think if you really had an opportunity to really drive all 3 you might have a different opinion. I have owned a 3rd gen RX7 and have sold it. I have not owned a Supra but would like to. I have really driven a few hard and had a good experience with them. The 2JZ is stronger than the RB but it is also bigger in stock form. The GTR is still it for me though. The G and GTR are my favorite cars and I am fortunate enough to own both.

Sorry, That is not my house. I took the same pics in front of my house but it did not have the same effect. I could only wish. That house could hold about 20 cars in its garages. You are only seeing part of it. The owner came out and saw me staring at it one day and invited me to take a look around and take the photos there.
