Q: thinking of buying a skyline but wot do i look for ?

A: Which version are you looking at getting the R31 R32 Spec 2 R33 R33 Spec2 models also the gts or the gts-t. All are great cars and differ in performance to to all having different engines Modding wise plenty can be done to all the models and with many owners around the world sharing info on the forums there are some handy tips and also with so many aftermarket parts for these cars you can some add more bhp and change the style to many different looks. The non turbo models give you the skyline look and some good bhp figures with cheaper insurance also a lot greater mpg. The GTS-T version are quicker due to having a single turbo although a mod which can be done to a non turbo.The cars are very tuneable and able to reach scary bhp figures. The R32 is lighter and great sideways fun around corners and a def great town driver and loves the open road. The R33 feels heavier but is still good fun and sticks to the road great town driving but loves bigger roads best when the power can open up. The GTS GTS-T versions offer a great version of the Skyline range and offer a third rear seat against the 4 seater GTR models.Also but space is great on both versions and allows the car to be used as a daily drivers car with school runs shopping runs and racing runs. These cars are good fun myself iam on my second auto skyline which again although people say its an auto,but a sports auto is nothing like a normal auto the box is responsive to the pedal just a touch and the power is away,also with the aid of a rev hold button a power button to allow redline revs and also overdrive all this with the RWD action adds to great fun . http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69362&highlight=buyers+guide skyline buyers guide link above http://www.nissan-skyline-gtr.info/specs/ Handy site gives gts and gtr info http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/index.php Handy skyline forum with worldwide free membership. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/home.html great info http://www.skylinesdownunder.com/forums/index.php more great info
