560HP R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R Review! Worthy of Legendary Status?
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 09. 2024
- The Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R V Spec is a car of legendary status. From pop culture such as the Fast and the Furious and Need for Speed Underground it was hard to ignore this car. Even with the car being absent in the US car culture it has become a dream car for many around the world. With an RbB26 powertrain, single precision turbo, and 560HP to the wheels...this car rips. So I finally had the chance to drive one of the rarest cars in the United States, and I'm here to tell you if it's worth the hefty price tag. Let's go for a drive of a lifetime.

I think the main reason i glorify this car is for how damn good the body lines connect for its time. To think im older than this car and it still holds that aggressive modern look that wasnt just weird triangular points like most today
This car in person is jaw dropping
Completely agree. Usually is try to make a cat look more aggressive, but this cat is practically perfect from factory. The body lines on the rear quarter panel 🤤
Yeah the looks of this car are timeless. It's going to look good forever.
I always thought the s15 was a better looking car
The Skyline R34 is the one of the most beautiful cars of all time. Right up there with the 1955 Mercedes SLR, the 1987 Ferrari F40, and the 1997 Dodge Viper Gts Coupe.
*Imagine if the R36 GTR takes design cues from all the previous GTRs. Just like how the Z took design cues from all of its predecessors.*
It wouldn't look right if they did that. It would be a hakosuka front with a r32 rear and the same size as an r35
Nah if I was Nissan I'd use the resources to make a halo car for Infiniti. Get people excited about the brand again and then build on it. The Z should remain the Nissan halo car, in north America at least, at let that like be an affordable dream car with a splash of nostalgia. Corvette? I'm sure a lot of ultra nerds are gunna bitch about it not being called a Nissan but that's the name of the game in the U.S. Gotta get the not so car people to buy one of these to. they are the majority. It's all in the marketing. Call it anything anywhere else, just not here. I'm rambling.
All Nissan needs to do is flatten the roof line, and design horizontal oriented headlights. And make it and inline-6, like the MKV Supra!!
I’m 69th like. Nice.
Imo thats kinda how legendary sports cars should be built.
I'm sorry, but you can't make an R34 review without getting on some curvy roads 🥲 Save the highway cruising for the supra
He's lucky enough to review/drive this car, doubt the owner would trust him enough to take this on some curvy roads.
We actually went on a rip through a canyon with him driving my NSX. I’m sure it’ll take a while for the edit to come out
@@bradescape1 you have not one , but two Halo cars? Lucky duck lol.
Mid Night Racing Team would like to contest that
@@collinmanning8334 my man owns 5 gtrs
I love how the styling of the R34 is just so beautiful till this day. One of the few cars I feel like the wing is perfect aswell.
Truly timeless
Yeah definitely timeless just like my FD3S RX-7. Those are the 2 most beautiful cars To ever come out of Japan, and they still look better than almost every car that comes out year after year.
For me, the car I associate to my generation (millennial) is the 2003 Cobra. It was the pinnacle for me. I’m blessed to own one!
This R34 is beautiful!
Same man I remember I watched that one video where a Cobra "runs" from a cop crossing a median with Kurt Cobain playing in the background over and over 😂😂 . Wish I had one .
Next car I build will be a cobra R replica
I’d probably trade my 04 Cobra for a R34 🥲
@Danny Vall to each their own.
Great video brother!
Btw, random fact, a V-Spec R34 GTR is not as rare as you might think, it was the most made trim of the R34 GTR, they made 4,100 V-Spec's of the 11,500 made R34's in total, what is rare is one in Midnight Purple II (like that one you're driving), only 287 were made in that color and is one of the only 2 trims that can legally be imported to the USA as Show and Display, the other one is the M-Spec NUR with only 285 cars made, yeah, i'm an R34 nerd and fanboy 😂😂😂😂
You forgot about the gtr 34 LM more rare
@@douglas4092 There's no such thing as an R34 GTR "LM", that's an R33, the most rare R34 GTR are the 19 Z-Tune's
Yea there’s a couple thousand of em in New Zealand alone
Why can only some of the trims be imported? I’m curious
@@joealex65 that is not true. The rarest R34 GTR is the V-Spec II N1 R34. Only 18 of those were made.
I feel in love with the R34 back in the days of Gran Turismo (1) before the F&F hype. I've always been a fan of the Supra and Skyline but if have to give the overall cool win to the R34 for just how good it looks and sounds.
The R34 is the car for me. It's been my favorite since I first saw it, and chose it consistently in videogames. The moment I can buy one, it's going in the garage, and never getting sold.
Same man, one of the first cars I buy whenever I can afford one in any car game, if not the R34 it has to be some form of GTR.
@@mathrockmaniac7643 Absolutely. I also kept the body stock because it was the best look. It's a perfectly stylized car.

because they don't have it

Because of one video game and one movie
Personally, it was the Mines R34 for me in old Best Motoring videos. Took note of them all prior but most were high power cars. The Mines car was a perfect blend.
Just like if people mention the Mitsubishi GTO, many will default to PitroadM or the US based companies. But I remember the Puma GTO and how amazing it was at the time. Sadly its endurance was nowhere near it's rivals on the circuit.
Same for me. The Mines R34 is a perfect balance R34. Full interior street weapon that could also run the track no sweat.

Mines r34 legend.. it did have 600+ hp like 20+ years back
Yeah Mines wasn’t fucking around when they got their hands on any skyline.
Late 90s jdm and euro will always be some of my favorite looking cars, some exceptions for older and newer cars though
You gotta review Adam LZ’s R34 when you get the chance.
I thought it was lol
@@kingsman-vw9vs close but Adam’s is a built RB still on twin turbos. I think it’s like 600-700hp.
Adam’s is nicer lol
@@ireckon7351 facts
@@ireckon7351 adams is what the r34 should be twin turbo
The first time I saw a Supra was in Gran Turismo 1 (the Castrol Supra) and I love it. The GTR was there but the other 2 cars that I love in GT1 were the NSX and the Evo. Then The Fast and The Furious saga came out and I fell in love with the GTR more than the Supra. It will depend on your perspective but for me it has to be the GTR and for some reason I love the R33 more than the others.
I love the r33 as well. I tried getting my dad to buy me a supra at 13 so I obviously am biased towards that being my number one though bc my dad passed when I was 16 and the day I get one I know he will be looking down on me glad that I got my dream car that I never shut up about lol
GT1/2 were probably responsible for making me love the NSX
Cant go wrong with midnight purple on them bronze wheels 😍😍😍
I don’t think you can say one or the other is the tuner car of our generation. It really truly is both. The Supra and the R34 really are connected with each other. True legends, and I’d say following only a short distance behind them would be the RX-7. Those three cars all have such tremendously huge followings and are all legends in there own right. Kings of the 90’s.
I remember about 3 months ago seeing one of these on the road by me and I thought "I wonder if they're affordable now?". I then went on car gurus and put in the make and model and everything to get a quick glimpse of the market, and the $ amount filter slider started at like $250k.
Dude I've loved this car since Grand Turismo 3. I took one look and wondered why it wasn't here it looked so cool and imo much better looking than the Supra. I saw a R34GTR at Hot Import Nights my freshman year in HS and I was so drooling over it. However since the Supra was available here i would say it and the Evo were the cars of our generation. The Supra modified was king of the road back then tht I feel the R35GTR now occupies. I'm glad you've finally been able to drive one of the best out there.
Finally you got to drive an R34 GTR! I can feel the envy running through my veins hahahaha! Such a wonderful car, idc what people say about it being overrated, i love it with all its flaws (and they got many), hope you really enjoyed driving that beast! 😁
This car in person is jaw dropping honestly
The 4 door r33 is amazing too I got to drive one here in Thailand my second time living here.
I love the 2JZ and it is the superior engine mechanically... but it will never compete with that glorious sound. I love the RB26.
Agreed! 👍
Perfect statement
How is it superior?
As a Supra 2JZ fanboy. I don't agree with this. I'm not a mechanic but from my knowledge and the forums I've been through over the decades.
Now I love the GTR R34 just as much as the next guy but the supra just has my heart. It's like asking to choose your mum or dad in a divorce. You can't win.
If you're talking about factory reliability, tuning potency and money for horses then yes I agree. The 2JZ is better.
But In terms of engine response, revvs, racer/enthusiast immersion and sound. I think the RB is better than the 2JZ in these cases especially if money wasn't a factor into your build.
2JZ is just more worth it.
@@kendall9758 rb26 is race bred , 2JZ is just any normal engine with 3x strength to hold power.i know 2JZ is very good, but think about it yourself is an engine only good or better if handles more power ??. 26 isn't any weaker Actually. The engine can easily take 600hp and that's all you ever need . Rb26 won so many races . R32 won 29 of 29 races and you can't do that if something is weaker. They ever put a 4 cylinder and a v8 once when they made the race supra (a80). The Japanese agree that the GTR is the Greatest Japanese supercar . When a gen comes out. And look at the new GTR and new supra. Supra is at the level of a silvia rn isn't it. Toyota just killed the good car. When comparing to a Porsche you can't compare the supra but the skyline GTR . The GTR in general is a superior car
Cool you’re doing a vid in Utah! Beautiful place to live, glad you missed the snow ❄️
The Supra is the domestic hero since we got them in the states. World wide the R34 reigns king. When I was in middle school my school had this book fair thing. And they sold car calendars. It was always your usual luxury cars like the lambos and Ferraris. But one year in the middle of the calendar there it was a bayside blue R34. It was like something out of this world. I’d never seen anything like it. Since then I’ve been obsessed with GTRs. I remember sitting at my computer at home waiting for the internet to connect, dial up iykyk, just to google R34s😂 I don’t think I’ll ever stop fangirling over GTRs on the road💕
That midnight purple is gorgeous 👌
Dude 🥺 this is so dope 😎 #rememberthebuster
I'm pretty sure I remember seeing this car at a show not to long ago in Ogden Utah. One of the cleanest examples I've seen.
After so long. You've finally reviewed an r34. It is beautiful
When I seen this it reminded me of Tunercults giveaway R34...
It would be cool if you were able to do reviews on giveaway cars from different places around to help promote them, and provide information about the cars and show them off to the viewers also
That would be a pretty cool idea I think. This car sounds like really good btw absolutely crazy car!
so cool to see this car on your channel, actually saw this very car in person not to long ago, pictures don't do justice on that paint!!!
Personally i feel that, altough these are great, they're absolutley not worth over $200,000.
Personally, i'd rather own a 911 GT3.
Definitely, like just get a r32. Same engine and it’s lighter. But if I were to have a 32 or 34 regardless of price, I’d take the 34 all the way
Not worth over 200k? lol. I wouldn't pay more then 30 or 40.
@@Thedude897 idk 30k and 40k isn’t bad for a dream car
People paying 200k for a car already have a GT3.
I'd rather buy many other cars and keep the rest of the money lol
For me personally the R34 in general does not live up to the hype. The most fun part about driving one is watching the foreigners freak out around you but for the most part the driving experience is not ground breaking or what it is built up to be by society. You don’t really see them often, even here in Japan they are still a rarity.
Of course not because every time you see one it’s modded out and racing. It lives up to the hype in terms of its potential and it’s Legacy. Plus it’s from an era where not a lot of cars have a lot of power out the box heck even the mustang even had about 280hp during that time. Back then everybody was on that “what can I beat with a four or a six cylinder?” tip. Now we have cars that make so much power it’s not even worth trying.
@@regalcatnetwork8068 even that for me it doesn’t live up to what the internet makes it out to be. I’ve owned multiple GT-Rs and driven quite a few heavily modified ones and even still it does not live up to the internet hype of it being this other worldly experience that it is made out to be. From my own personal experience I see a lot more BNR34s that are nearly bone stock or just a few bolt ons vs heavily modified ones actually racing. I find the most of the extreme builds are one on ER34s.The Supra as well is another example, I’ve had mine for 6 years and not a single day has gone by where I thought to myself this is the pinnacle of automotive engineering and this deity car the internet claims it to be. In fact I have a lot more fun driving around my Integra Type R than I ever had driving and BNR34 or A80 Supra. Especially on a road course.
@@KeenanStyles Well the majority of the Internet is full of fucking idiots who don’t know what it takes to build a Toyota supra or Nissan skyline. For those cars to do what those people fantasize about, takes a lot of money. I was talking to a guy who had one that said after building the engine, it just wasn’t worth it. Personally The supra lives up to my personal hype because of the engine noises, if I ever get one it may not be the fastest by the time I get it but one thing is for sure it will definitely sound fantastic, the way that engine sounds is addicting. The only thing I remember from that car in the fast and the furious is the engine noises. I could be having a shit day and all that goes away just by revving the engine
@@KeenanStyles The Hondas are justifiably good. My mom had an accord and it was just fun for no reason. It had a 2.4 VTEC engine, it was hilarious to drive because we didn’t expect it to have that much pick up
Honestly the R32’s are the ones that live up to the hype. They are easily the most fun to drive.
Thought it was Lz's car at first.great vid man
Theres an R34 GTR in Manati, Puerto Rico where I live. It’s Bayside Blue and stock and I’m obsessed lol. They take it out a couple times every 3-4 months and it’s a joy to see it driving around.
My week had been even better with this video. Not only did I watch the new Hawkeye episode on Disney + last night, but now I got this video I’ve been WAITING for, and I’m watching No Way Home tomorrow night? THANKS DAVID!!!!!
I feel like whenever you drive a car we can both relate. You don't really have anything bad to say about them.
A true car enthusiast. Much respect to you brutha man. And thank you for showing us all these cool ass cars.

Well as an owner of BOTH 98 Supra and 99 GTR ... I don't think it matters IMO, both are great and both are different in their own way. Both still have stock twins with just the bolt-ons.
I DO get more attention from the Supra over the GTR shockingly. More people know the MKIV Supra than the Skyline. I can pull up to a gas station and not have 1 single person come up to me in the GTR or in my 98 240sx, its like most people don't recognize them, while the Supra, i always get 1 person to walk to me to look at the Supra or give me the thumbs UP as they drive by. Even while driving the Supra down the road i get more attention.
The GTR and the 240sx, its like i have to get that die hard Nissan guy to see and recognize it before they give me the thumbs up and when they do recognize it and see it, then they ask WHY i stayed with the KA24DE motor instead of SR20 or RB26 or even 2JZ ... I tell them because i already own a 98 Supra and a 99 R34 ... and besides the KA24 is a torque monster, when i step on it, it drops and GOES ...
I have a white R33 GTR and an anthracite NA 5 speed Supra. I got the GTR in April 2020, and there weren't many R33s around, and it felt like the car would elicit a huge reaction from at least one person everytime I drove it. When I got the supra, the reactions seemed a little more subdued. But after putting a Tomei on it, it gets a ton more attention.
I agree that both are great in their own ways. I've yet to put the suspension of either to the test, but even when I was on stock suspension on the 33 with a decent functioning HICAS, it FELT like it could handle any curve at absurd speed. The Supra is noticeably smaller and feels easier to cruise in.
Every time I see an R34 video, it's like I'm playing hurt/heal. My love grows for them, but with every new video I feel my dream car slipping away into the clutches of the bro tax. Suppose if I ever win the lottery I'll source a Midnight Purple V-Spec.
I’m 47 yo. The R34 has and always will be my unicorn car. Till this day I have never had the opportunity to experience a drive in one, let alone even sit in one. It is that car of my generation no doubt. It was never intended for our market, that’s why I put it ahead of the Supra. I’m dying to meet my hero one day, I know I won’t be disappointed…
When he says Brian O'Connor I know ur lookin down on me gave me chills in all seriousness
That Midnight Purple 2 Though damn! I have always wanted to drive AN R34 OR ANY SKYLINE FOR THAT MATTER. Gon try work hard to own a Skyline one day. Its such a stunning car.
Skyline.. No question.
R34 still my all time favorite car to this day. R35 my dawg too but you know R34 holds a special place. Zilla for life🤟🏾
My ultimate Japanese dream car one day I will own one even If It’s not a Gt-r model It’s still gonna be a skyline!
Best looking/sounding car in my book, bar none
My favorite JDM car and this is now my favorite TDIB video 🥴
Several months ago I swear I saw a 34 go through the light on State and 106th, but I didn't think there were any 34s here in Utah. Now I'm certain it was this car. So clean, true dream car, too bad they're so obscenely over valued now that you gotta make the choice between buying a house and buying a 34.
Earliest I ever been. And it says r34 gtr...and it's a vspec.....so I'm here. Greetings from Jamaica
Both are cars of our generation TDIB..LOVE BOTH OF EM
It's a nice car , one of the best but i think most of the hype is because USA did not get it and the kids that play this in games want to own one !
i think once after USA could import this the hype going to go to the moon (mostly do to social media people) but then it will come down
in my country we can't import anything that is more than 3 years old but we have some R34's and everyone loves them but it's same as a Supra or a FD !
This is awesome I’ve been following since the mustang gt days.. love u man.
It’s an overpriced beauty. The most i’d pay for one is around 60k but they’re 300k now.
That’s Bcs you have limited funds
@@mperformance3502 it's also just overpriced.. even if you had 300k to blow, there's so many other cars you could get for the money that would be better in every way.
@@mperformance3502 “oh what, you’re not a millionaire too?” Who are you trying to impress on CZcams fool?
Paid 30k for one , sold it for 60, now they stupid price
300k is a nice deposit for a house.
The instant I saw the mountains in background, I was like: "Hey, that looks like Utah." Wasn't dissapointed.
A Big domestic Japanese car importers had one of these back in the 90's in kgn Jamaica...so one of the salesmen who used to come down from Japan eventually bought the car offa him & sent it back home!!! I remember as a green driver standing by this monster wondering if I could manage...beast
I know this is completely off topic, but for me growing up, the car I was always drawn to the most was a Dodge Viper. That's the car that got me into cars. From my childhood days to being 30 now, the Viper has always been my favorite car.
That being said, for me the Supra was more the car of my generation. There was just something so special about it. I remember watching 2F2F as a kid, and being more drawn to the Supra in the first race than the Skyline.
First of all, words cannot describe how much I envy you right now in this moment. Secondly, I think the R34 is the car of our generation more so than the Supra. The R34’s rarity, and the fact that it wasn’t exported to North America really gave it that extra wow factor when it was made famous by Gran Turismo, Fast and Furious, and Need For Speed.
I agree, but with how common the supras are they are alittke easier to get then the V-SPEC. But if the R34 was avalible more like the supra then yes the supra would sit on the back burner and almost sit in its shadow. Both are amazing cars tho
@@FastHouseGaming the Supra does sit on the back burner compared to the Skyline GT-R already. The allure of the Forbidden Fruit made sure of that. If the GT-RS were sold worldwide like the Supra, there’s a chance the Supra’s production run in North America would’ve ended before 1998.
The veilside r34 was the most mental thing is even seen , back in the day it was far beyond what anyone else had built besides the hks r33
Great video 👌. Making me excited as my R34 Gtr V Spec is almost finished with single Turbo conversion 😬. Will post on CZcams when completed
Think mkiv supra and R34 GTR are equally the cars of the tuner generation
Thanks for the kind words David! Hope to see you again soon❤️🤘
I used to draw the front end of the r34 in 4th grade Nd 5th grade all the time and obsessed over it for years , it will forever hold a special place in my heart.. maybe one day.
As an ex-owner of the car in question, the truth is, the standard GTR is heavy and slow. Plenty of cars that are standard and less exotic can out handle and outrun one of these. So the standard guise is not something that lifts it to a legendary status. Originally meant for rally - from the R32 believe it or not- what they are capable of when you throw money at it, is what probably makes it a legend.
Not me seeing that red NSX in the back like "...when he gonna drive that one?" xD
If I could own one car in the world, it be this every time. I remember as a kid watching the the first scene of 2F2F and the cutting the movie off after because I was only interested in the skyline. As well as on NFS Underground, I played the entire game just to drive the Skyline and then I was good.
Enjoying a thatdudeinblue video while I play some OG need for speed underground on my original xbox, with a chicken sandwich... good Friday night lol
There are plenty of reasons why the GT-R is so desired. A generation of kids grew up driving the GT-R in Gran Turismo. Many of my peers read features in automotive magazines, but honestly 2 Fast 2 Furious locked it down for me. The allure is also heighten due to the 25 year import band from the NHTSA’s (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). Skyline is truly a breed of its own with respect that surpasses the Nissan brand itself. No other Nissan vehicle has been put on a pedestal so grand as the GT-R.
Growing up I had a R34 Vspec Xmod remote control car and my brother had a MK IV Supra. Definitely the 2 best cars of our generation.
He'll yah an r34 gtr in midnight purple 💜 😍😍
how could you... this shouldnt even be a question reeeeeee lol its dated maybe now but id still take this over any new supercar rn.. this just would make me feel complete, here in usa..
I was all R34 fanboy growing up. But as I got older I think i've fallen in love with the mk4 supra just as much. I'm also building a JZ right now lol
Next video should be how he got it! The whole process!
found the r34 long before movies or internet hype. just a kid and his playstation scrolling through the lot on gran turismo 2. figured out awd was the best and went digging for a awd car that looked cool aswell... then i saw the front of this car and knew it was the one.... then i built it and OMG
To me the car of our generation would be something a normal person would have a great shot at experiencing. The GTR wasn't experienced in the US until the 25yr rule or if you did a grey import really. You can argue the supra because it is(rapidly approaching was)in a similar category to say owning a shelby or z06. Now you can argue them from an era sense but then cars like the f1 enter the chat, lol. I gotta go with the terminator cobra for that era. I think I screwed up and missed the boat on owning one under 20k though.
This is literally my dream car. From the color, options, and wheels. Except I would like a V SPEC II
You can't get that color in a V-Spec II.
@@Und34d_R ah, I learn something new every day
This is down the road from my house that's awesome
Sweet been waiting on some merch!
I'm so jelly David. Awesome video bro👍
Sir, this video is not enough. I'm going to need a 90+ minute feature film about this car. Thank you! 👏🏼
For a split second I had a heart attack because I thought Adam OCD LZ let you review his car!
I have an r34 and I love it, never getting rid of it
Skyline baby that's the car man got a soft spot for R32 though, great vid!🔥
I think the fair answer is both. Like you said, a lot think of them together as competitors. Both fast and furious cars. Both popular need for speed cars. When I think of most iconic jdm cars, its these 2.
I just love the way the RB sounds over JZs
I like the r34, but I think too many jdm enthusiasts over extend their influence onto others in the scene. Despite my profile picture, I actually prefer European cars, followed by domestic. Car of our generation? Personally I'd say no. The cars I liked growing up was the terminator Cobra and clk 63 black series. I'd be willing to argue more people in the US like domestic cars than JDM, but the jdm community is just the most focal on social media.
Are you a Benz or BMW type of guy?
Could have made this video 30mins and it wouldn't have been boring. Love it.
I always thought these cars were pretty overrated cause literally EVERYONE liked them and wanted them, but after seeing Adam Lz's build on his r34 I have changed my thoughts on these cars, they are sick when done right, and I absolutely love that colour!
This is the only car I would 100% race a Honda Civic with the laptop in it
Cool car bro. Have you ever driving a 280 zx turbo? Pretty quick from 0 to 120mph and that's the top end. Lol
9:17 Skyline hands down. They dominated in the circuit, drag and highway runs.
Nice but in Australia a 560hp R34 is tame. Those insane Aussies have 2000+hp R32s. Matooks and Jun2 are two examples. Insane.
Everybody falls in love with r34s if you drive any skyline with medium power you quickly fall for the performance and handling its a car that deserves its respect !! maybe not the prices though ??
i wouldve preferred you to review adam lz's r34 lol but love the vid nonetheless
The Supra is definitely the car of our generation here in America lol we didn’t really know about the Skyline GT-R until Grand Turismo came out.
My take on the r34 gtr is it’s a good car all around it’s does everything really good but some people blow it way out of proportions and expect it to be some 1000hp supercar slayer just like the Supra
The Supra isn’t a super car slayer just like any car with a factory 200-300hp isn’t a super car slayer. They all become super car slayers when you put enough money into them.
The Supra is the same level of overhyped as the r34. They’re both only good if you dump money into them
Yup, even though 12yo JDM fanboys put them on a pedestal and think that no other car can beat them in a race, you can't deny that both are still good looking cars
@@vitttorioprigalih both the R34 and Supra were great performing cars back in the 90s too. But they weren't like supercars. Just good sports cars
I think with a good tune the R34 could push 7-800 horse. In my perspetive 1000hp supras have more torque then anything in my perspetive. A rolling start if you were to race it maybe, but a launch, its gonna take a few gears. The R34's are the perfect car to focus on acceleration side of tunes. They are both amazing cars but very different in many ways. Which i think would be a very, very interesting match if it were to ever come to it.
Saw that car in person in Lynchburg, they do great work
I would say the A80 Supra and R34 GTR are both the cars of the 80’s-90’s babies. 1a and 1b. Depending on the coin flip, one or the other is on top.
Both car together are the cars of the generation cant single out either of them
Man. That exhaust sounds fucking nice
Congratulations David you finally got there! Amazing review bro, I love this car. As someone born in 1990 I'd say the Skylines, Supra, RX7 FD, Silvias are ALL the cars of our generation. I'd pick the Supra for drag racing but for circuits or time attack it has to be the R34 GT-R! Clarkson put it in the Top 10 of his 100 best cars of all time for a reason!! Respek 👌🏼🏒
It's fun to see the area where I live in the background of this video. If you have plans to return to Utah, I'd like to meet you and, if you're interested, I have a car that I think you might like to review.
Normally wouldn't give a fuck but that exhaust sounds ruthless,best RB I've heard now,even over a dirty c33 on gate at Friday skids lol
I’m 30 now and have loved this car for almost 20 years, I still love it although I’m sad I’ve realized I won’t be able to afford one
