Which of you owns the Super Sonic Metalic (SILVER) Skyline GT-S R33 that rolled up to stockbridge this Saturday. That was nuts seeing an R33 out like that.

I see this guy all the time at the club called the peacock. He just shows up to show off. Be careful... he does not race that car he has another car that he races.. my guess is its maybe a hatch or a integra or civic because those are what his boys drive
its a civic and he said he beat a bike with it.
I saw that guy this weekend
i talked to him and if i can remember
the tag on it is from his civic
and its an auto
but still an skyline none the less
wow gotta give him props though, a skyline
that skyline is 5 speed i sat in it while it was at nad autoOriginally Posted by georgiaboy85

ok must be a diff skyline thenOriginally Posted by toojdm
i know i saw a auto skyline somewhere
sorry for the mix up
Last friday night I guy with a hatch was talking shit to him about smokin his skyline and was not paying any attention. I ask him if the skyline was his race car? he smiled and said nope.
skylines are slow and the neons just makes it look like a ricer
I've met him a few times, pretty cool guy. Everyone else makes a big deal about his skyline moreso than he does.
^beacaus its a skyline. not everyday someone sees one of those.
I love skylines to death but some people blow it out of proportion, I'm always impressed to see one but jumping up and down yelling its a skyline (yes I have seen it done) is a bit much.
With that said it is very cool to see him pull into a parking lot just to see the reaction and then to see how nonchalant he is about it.
i remember the way that car was set up at nad does anyone know engine mods he has put on since
noticed that are nice
big brake kit from rotora
fixed body work
wheels
not nice
neons
cluttered dash
^agreed. u shoulda seen the rednecks taht nite. "is that real skyline?" "Naw Cooter i think its an accord with a body kit"
true, skylines are slow from the factory but all the rb series motors have the greatestOriginally Posted by WINDSOR
tuning potential of almost any engine ever, a car that produces a true 310-300hp at
the crank take away the lie of 280ps given to japanese manufactuers. the engine with
rb26 short block handles 600ps and the exvitermini drag r33 is set to hit 1500hp.
The skyline talked about now is not the street terror it could be, if the owner really
invested in it that rb25, it could eclipse 800hp.
There is a reason top secret has chosen the rb26 to power their z33, supra, and
countless of demo skylines

Heres the problem with that, you have an 800hp skyline that nobody knows how to work on because of how rare they are. Considering how much the guy drives his skyline I'm sure he wouldn't want to deal with the hassle every time he has to get something fixed. I'm already having that problem with a 400hp G35.Originally Posted by toojdm
to all you honda people
because of the rb short stroke, (its an oversquare engine) the rb can rev
past 10,000 rpm better than a b16 or b18
strokes
rb20-69.7 mm
rb25-71.7 mm
rb26-73.3mm
true that, but you must consider that the vq35 has been around for only like 4 years and while there is aftermarket and tuning support, it still has to grow. the vq's capabilities arn't to that of a 17 year old race breed motor. Finding the tuning for it and spending the money is his business, besides i dont mean he has to im just saying if he invested he could.Originally Posted by tony
ps. real clean G35 tony
^ to add to that, think about the number of 240 swaps incorporating the rb25 and 26. with all the 240 shops in ga I am sure someone knows how to properly work on a skyline motor. as for the car itself, one may run into problems.
if i had the money i know what i would do to the 350 or g35

the engine is stock... but it won't be for long. He is tired of people talking shit to him so he is going to start throwing some parts on it... oh did you notice the front bumber on?
man what would people do if a skyline GTR v-spec 2 showed up all them kids would be jumping like lil kids when they see santa lol
lol
do you know for sure and if so can you tellOriginally Posted by Ludester
how exstensive are the parts to be thrown, upgraded turbo, other bolt ons, internals, if you know, do tell
He would not talk to me the he would on a regular night because of the guy there talking shit about "how his hatch runs 12.5s at the track blah blah blah blah...
I can tell u this though he is from Hampton... He has money (he has a 97 skyline). From judging his character when h does something he do it right. When or if you ever see the car take a look at the aorodynamics of the car. The first night I met him all he spoke about was drifting. There are two touch screens insight the car. The one that comes with the car and another one which I think if I correct and make the car a rear wheel drive.... basically he has money period
It is just a skyline..
I mean hell it isn't even a gtr.
Nothing to get panties in a wad over.
Sure it looked good. But there were cars out there that night that looked better.
true... but you would be amazed at how much shit people talk to him because "it just a skyline."
It is probably kids who think that just because it is a skyline it is super fast.
Or they talk shit because he obviously paid a shit ton for a skyline, that is if its a legal skyline...
I'd take a gti-r over a rb20/rb25 skyline anyday.
no... these are grown ass men who could both his and my uncles. he didnt spend as much as what I see skylines for on the internet. He bought it piece by piece... it works out a lot cheaper.![]()
I'd only get a skyline to mod and make fast...so if he got one just to have meh.
me too. I think skyline was not built to show off it was made for high horse power outs and great handling capabilities
Well the rb20/25 skylines were made for grandmothers to go to the grocery store in...
lol... rb25 turbo came out it was the shit. I took America five years after its arrival to come up with a buick that was it the same class but rwd to beat it in the quarter mile stock for stock in the same class. (Can't remember the name of the buick could find out though).
does that make you happy?
