The R34 Skyline is faster straight from the factory, but is much more expensive.

I'm sorry if this sounds weird coming from me... in that other threat I had thought you were talking about the new Pontiac GTO when it was mentioned.

well they obviously wanted something with gt in it, and gto's not that bad a name, neither is 3000gt and i dont think it would be wise to take gtr

nissan spells it GT-R rather than GTR dont they, so car manufacturers wanting to use it would have a way of getting around any legal problems

Thumbs up

3000GT IS THE AMERICAN NAME FOR THE JAPANISE GTO, I OWN A STOCK 3000GT 91 MAKING 320HP TWINTURBOED, I BOUGT IT FOR 10,000 GRAND PLUS SOME TAX IN MY COUNTRY (GUATEMALA) AND 34,000 ml "ON THE CLOCK", CANT COMPARE BETWEEN ONE AND THE OTHER.

fOR A CAR FAN LIKE ME, A SKYLINE GTS,GTR,R34,R33,R32 IS SIPLY A MACHINE YOU ARE GONNA LOVE FOR LIFE DESPITE THE LOOKS OF PREVIOUS SKYLINES.

BUT FOR THE REGULAR JOE THE GTO IS MUCH MORE ATRACTIVE THEN THE SKYLINE

SOW IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR GRATE LOOCKS, PRICE AND A DICENT 0-60 IN 5.2 S AND AWD, THE 3000GT IS FOR YOU.

bUT IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A WAY OF LIFE, A RELIGION, AND A CAR TO DIE FOR GO GET THE SKYLINE .

i do have to totally agree with u that the 3000gt looks better than the skyline, if only it didnt have so much weight it would surely be a very great car.
