A good looking car. Not every JDM import has to be a GT-R. If it's fun to drive, then it's worth it. I once heard these described as Japan's Mustang.
In that they are over hyped and not very fast? Yeah. Most R32s were written off a long time ago in Australia. Or at least the RB20 blew up.
Love me some rear wipers
R32 GTS-T is probably my preferred skyline. It has the simplicity of rwd, not as front heavy as the GTR, and just something that can be enjoyed all the time.
And even better If you put an RB30 with an RB25/26 head, add the twin turbo system with an LSD diff, and you get all the power to the rear wheels, without the weight and understeer of the Attesa AWD system in the GTR.
@@giancarlolugo9586 and it will cost like 50k cheaper, because you don’t have GTR markup.
@@genericexcuse4737 not to mention It will be more low profile.
@@giancarlolugo9586 why would you use the old twin turbo system?
@@Low760 I mean an aftermarket twin turbo system.
I remember reading about Skylines in car magazines then being surprised to see them on my trips to Australia in 1999 and 2002.
I also saw Holden Monaro’s which became in the US Pontiac GTO. They had a variation of the Ford Festiva’s there which were 4 door with about a 4” longer wheelbase. They also sold Mustang Cobra’s there but they were very expensive because of the conversion to LH drive.
RH drive

Yep.
I have a R32 GTST arriving this week. I can’t wait to pick it up
How has it been?!
Ah I just love the old carpeting around the interior even the ceiling. This is what I miss on newer cars. Today everything has to be leather (or just plastic door cards one black piece). Yes leather looks also nice but I just prefer wool/fabric.
here's one you probably didn't know existed: the Toyota Corolla Levin and Trueno (AE101, JDM), in GT-Apex and GT-Z trims, had a rear wiper, i had one myself before i got my RX-8. Pretty obscure JDM car, running a 20V variant of the 4AGE (gt-Apex, GT trims only. GT-Z got a 16v S/c engine.) I loved having that rear wiper. Made seeing behind me in the rain wonderful. I miss that car. Maybe one day i'll find a much neater example than what i had, maybe find a supercharged one.
This was the first car I bought when I first started Gran Turismo 2.
9:47 “A coyote running into the road”? Ironic they are usually spinning out on to the grass and sidewalk.
sorry that joke was right there
I didn't know these had a really, really small inline-6! I thought they were 4-cylinders. These became popular in Canada about 10 years ago (due to the import law) but aren't around anymore. It's more common to see R34 generation Skylines in Canada.
No cup holders, not much trunk room...I STILL WANT ONE!
The skyline r32 is my all time favorite car alongside the Ferrari 458 which i love for totally different reasons. I hope I can buy an R32 someday...
Nice, this is for sale currently and this video was linked, wondered if it was the same car!
I love the Nissan Skyline from the 90s
The R32 GTS-T was the first Skyline that I ever saw in my entire life. It was a red one
I own an extremely similar car, an 89 GTS-T with the type M package. The video's car (currently for sale on Marketplace in northern IL) is a bit nicer and a bit closer to stock, although mine has GT-R seats which are far more supportive. Bought mine in 12/2019 in South Bend, Indiana. And yes, mine still has the working rear wiper that most people delete. Fun fact, it somehow weights just 2800 lbs (ie: 700 lbs less than a MK3 Supra), for what is basically a sporty version of a family sedan. No idea how they did it.
215 HP has to be viewed through the context of an engine that came out in 1986, in the R31 gen. The MK6 GTi (also a 2.0T) makes identical power despite being decades newer. I've owned a 300ZX with the VG30, that was 160 hp and the JDM version with the 2.0T V6 made about the same. Few cars made over 200 HP before the late 80s. Thus, the RBs have a reputation for being a bit temperamental and high stress, the cooling system in particular can struggle. There was a version of the GTS-T called the GTS-4 which was AWD with the same engine.
It's wonderful to drive on a fun road. Short gearing (2800 RPM at 60, lol), short steering ratio, 7500 RPM redline, loads of grip with 17s, good amount of power for how light it is, etc. I'm also blown away at how modern it feels compared to similar cars I've owned (Z31, FC rx7), it doesn't feel like it's 34 years old. There was a version of the GTS-T called the GTS-4 which was AWD with the same engine. I'm considering selling it for a JZX90/100, but maybe not.
Still have your car?
@@timothyrhodes4154 Indeed I do.
Have you ever driven an s15? I am really tossing up between an s15 and an R32 GTST. I just love the look of the R32 but the silva might just honestly be a better car. How is the driving experience if you know?
What an awesome car. I want one 👍👍
Mazda had a 1.8(?)V6 in the late 80s/early 90s, and then a 2.5 V6 in the late 90s.
See if you can find a Mazda with a small displacement v6, MX-3, MX-6.
Awesome!
Sweet first one to comment! Thanks for the awesome content
Haha the 'cup holder' looks like a modern wireless charger
How did the RB20DET feel compared to the VG20ET?
RB is more rev happy, VG feels more confident.
Rb20 want want want want want want want. The Rb20 is my favorite engine to exist ever. Alas, I live in California
Zach where did you get the shirt microphone and what model is it?
6:57
@@retrosteven It's a RODE Lavalier Go that feeds into a Zoom H1n Recorder
@@ShootingCars Thanks I will look into to it for my next video
Not a today purchase but I will definitely keep it in mind I've been on the a search for a microphone for a long and I just wanted to know what you used.
Some automakers begin using cheaper fabric for seats to reduce costs, which is modern cars are not as comfortable or plush as those back then including safety features
AWEOME yes pull the seat back and close the door to see if the back seats actualy fit regular people or just kids
inline 6 should've been in the Z car the whole time.
???? Zach, the R32 sedan and R32 Coupe have the same wheelbase and the same roof height and the same amount of space in them. The R32 sedan is absurdly small. There is no room for a person to sit behind the driver. It's a 3 seater. Are you sure you're not remembering the R33?
Im sure it was an R32, I don't remember a space issue, but I more meant the actual seat material was perfectly comfortable: not too squishy, not too hard.
“走りのスカイライン“の頂点を目指して
Wow true there is no perfect car everything I think fast wagons are about as perfect a vehicle as you can get.
Practical
Fun to drive
Efficient
Capable
As a former skyline owner they aren’t great to own. Even living in Japan it wasn’t great.
Howcome?
I... c...
As a current skyline owner i love owning my skyline
toyota supra- rear wiper a80
But they’re hatch back. Not many cars that have a dedicated trunk have rear wipers a lot of hatch’s do.
Honestly from the looks the gts or gtst is better than any gtr
Its just a s13 that cost more
Not even close

Dont get offeded I can write about every market and Iam an autoracist
I'll get offended when someone with an IQ over room temperature makes the same argument, if you'd like to call it that
@@angelsfallfirst7348 don't get me started over Americans IQ bud ....
The GTST is not the car people are hyping over so this seems kind of silly
it doesn't need to paul walkers skyline to be cool.
im a young 21 year old man without a license, and ive never seen 2 fast 2 furious in it's entirety, and i know nothing about importing cars from japan, or anywhere for that matter, or how to drive manuel transmissions, but one of these days, i would LOVE TO import a nissan skyline from japan, and have it not be a GTR 34, because to be fair, as iconic as paul walkers R34 is, and as famous as that car is, i would take this cheaper alternate any day. depsite it being a right hand drive.
