"GT-RS SUCK"
I was recently reading the Dec-Jan 2003 issue of speed which I found lying around and something was brought to my attention. In Reaction Time, one reader-obviously the owner of a skyline GT-R-believes that his car can beat an old school V8. If he had any sort of brain, he would realise that cars like the old GT-HO's and Monaros would leave there little Jap-crap imports for dead with or without the need of a turbo. I am a P-plater but while on my L's, I was behind the wheel of a stock standard Dihatsu Charade with a 1.3 litre under the bonnet (which I am aware is a Jap-made car) and have not once been beaten by another Jap-import performance car.
I think Nissan should stick to the family cars because the Skyline is a heap of sh*t. The only real import to ever come out of japan that is worth buying for performance is the WRX STi.
