I read about this in the 7/2005 RT. Very impressive, although I suspect that 495hp/398lb-ft output is probably underrated.....again. It seems like 0-60mph in 3 seconds flat requires a bit more than '495hp/398lb-ft' and ATTESA to move a 3500lb+ car.

You mean the Z-Tune? Nismo made just 20 of them to celebrate Skyline GT-R 20th birthday. And all 20 of them are based on used R34s since Nissan have already stopped making them in 2002.

I honestly believe this is the pinacle of anything that has ever come from Japan. Form following function, yet it still looks fantastic. Everything that is on the car is there because it needs to be. No expense spared on materials or construction techniques. It even has CF shock towers!!!

I really love this RB series motor, and i hope they keep it in the new skyline that they are bringing to the US. And look what it says on top of the motor Z2 Z-tune Future Concept Engine Spec II, so may be they were testing the new version of the old RBDET motor in this car

i saw it on ebay japan a while ago, it was selling for about 200k USD and it can be exported, and it can transform into a left hand drive

if you can afford this car you probably can ship it over to US, but again....200+k USD would you get a 911 turbo, F430 or this R34?

Well, I wish I had that dilemma!

In order, I'd choose Ferrari, Skyline GT-R, and then 911 Turbo...but, that's just me.

seriously, R34 worths no more than 100k, a brand new R34 was selling around 100k US, why paying twice as much?

a Ferrari will make this R34 look shit on any given day, even thou the GTR is damn hot

The Ferrari may look better, but this thing will blow away any current Ferrari save the Enzo.

With 500hp, 400lb ft, and AWD it pulls 1.5g's off the line and can apparently stop at 2g's. Madness.

i agree

but sorry, i am more into look than real peformance

i guess the majority thinks the same too

a fast car does not = attract attention to hot chicks

trust me, most of my female frds hates STi...why? coz the ride is not comfy and it looks too ricey, who cares if it eats M3 if the girls doesn't like it?

Actually, the Z tuned Skyline will do the 1/4 mile in the low 10s.
It will make most ferrari's look like shit.

I would take a skyline over a ferrari in a second.
