So you're saying with engine management, engine mods and a TC this thing wouldn't do too well. it's a 5spd still afterall. not to mention there's a lot of Auto tranny cars that will put many cars in this forum to shame.

you gotta understand, I will prolly never buy an AT car for myself, in my lifetime.

born and raised on a manual-shift '68 BMW 2002, I will never switch...

yeah, I hear good things about the 4EAT, and yeah, the real $hitbox is the stock USDM 5MT.

and brucelee owns his own car, tim nutz!

But when I think of the R34 Skyline, an auto tranny doesn't come to mind.

Oh and Ted, the G35 is called Skyline in Japan. I don't know if its supposed to be the R35 or not, but they do call it the Skyline.

I keep seeing those artists renditions of the "next Skyline GTR", and they look nothing like the G35 though

I drove an R34 in Hong Kong with a Sports Shifter It was a GT25s, and I was happy to not have to worry about the clutch in Causeway Bay during rush hour hehe.

The Skyline you are talking about is probably the R33 or the R34. The Skyline (G35) he's talking about is the regular Skyline in Japan. Which doesn't come with turbo like the GTR's...

The GT-R isn't the only turbo Skyline model, you know... Of course, the current model Skyline sedan in Japan has no forced induction either.

totally off-topic, but if I could own any R34 Skyline, it would be a four-door GTS with a full GTR conversion...
