dont agree with you there mate, i like japanese cars for what they are.

its sometimes just the people who drive them like the ricers in america and 'boy racers/chavs' in europe.

dont get me wrong, i also love old american muscle cars, italian supercars etc.


the cars i hate are:

any french car, opel/vauxhaul.

as for seeing Mitsi's and scooby's you'll just have to hope the manufacturers come aboard.. most of the makers in the game are there basically because theyre owned by bigger companies in the game. Aston martin for example are owned by Ford...... and this is a BIG point that people seem to miss :

Bugatti is owned by VW so i reckon its only a matter of time before we see a Veyron

:nono: they are GM = american :-( but RR is german now

by that logic there is about 2 british manufacturers in the car industry. A company's nationality is dictated by its HQ, not by its boss's hq.

Therefore, Opel = german, Vauxhall = British trading name of opel (lets be honest, vauxhall isnt a car builder, its just rebadged opels)

like Axe is the american name for lynx

erm, i wouldnt mind one or 2 scoobies, same for evos, tool much of the same car can be boring though, here would be my japlist

but i cant see there being a veyron...even though VW own... i would rather see BMW and more Mercedes than japs...no offence evo's scoobys are so great cars but i see to many these days down here. but wouldnt mind it to be honest.. more euro cars though like Ferrari and the lost lambos... would like to see Dauer 962Lm the forgotton super cars... if Bugatti did make an appearence id like to see the Eb110 i mean check this out these are some of the supercars we are missing!!!!

Gay daddy's boys?

Never heard that one before.

I'll refrain from commenting on the prat-remark.

Why do I dislike japanese cars?

Well. I don't. First and foremost I don't have the slightest against japanese cars. They have revolutionized the world of car-productions ten-fold. The period of car manufacturing from the mid 80's till the late 90's left pretty much everything else standing. Today the european cars are back in the lead when it comes to Fuel economy, safety and pollution control.

So why do I comment on the people wanting to see the awe-inspiring Nissan Skyline that Paul "I couldn't act surprised if a purple goose fell out of the sky and into my lap while I was on the pooper" Walker drove to immediate fame and has since polluted the airways as the be-all and end-all of Chav-favourite boy-racer phenomenon?

Because the car is poor. It is a horrible overpriced piece of japanese carboard with a tuning kit that could make the producers of supertankers bow down in awe.

The base of the car is a chopped up family sedan. The engine is so hard tunes it goes half a mile on a full tank of fully leaden gas. It turns like the afmorementioned supertankers and the cost runs about as high too.

What the producers at Nissan did with the atrocity of the Skyline was to remove the estethics of car manufacturing and just boosted what was already there performance-wise and then they shot a boatload of product-placement dollars into a series of poorly scripted movies that has completely managed to screw with the consumers.

The car is poo. It drives like poo. It looks like poo. It delivers a million tonnes of poo in exhausts and it has poo mileage and yet somehow everyone under the age of 18 seems to think it is the bee's knees of cars and that Porsche/Ferrari and Lamborghini is snooty and apparantly also homosexual in appareance, when in fact you get a better car at a better price.

It is not that Nissan can't make decent cars. The 350Z is awesome. I loved driving it. But it has a proper engine. It's not some megalomanical misfit taken from the oriental version of Dr. Frankensteins castle.

The Skyline, the Evos and the Imprezas should stay as Rally models or stationwagons.

Everything else is a crime against nature.

i like hatchbacks (but not chav-associated ones - yes i mean the corsa)
i like modded cars (but only tastefully modded ones - yes i mean daft assed spoilers and noisey exhausts)
i like racing (but not on public roads)
i like enjoying cars (but not forcing everyone else to 'enjoy' the car by going up and down the road infront of mcdonalds)
I like listening to music (but not forcing everyone to listen to pisspoor quality music by cranking the stereo up to the full)


personally i want a hyundai accent as a first car, and will probably put a discrete bodykit and spoiler on it, and paint it british racing green. but i am not gonna 'chav it up' might even change the engine, theres plenty of room for a bigger one, look at the WRC accent for example)

i know, a skyline. although they are not better then their Mitsubishi Evo equivilant, i just love the looks and engine so much. i find them amazing cars, beautiful to look at.

skylines are very good cars, and with around 550hp they can keep up with nearly all supercars. even with full interior trim.

just take a look at the mines for example. it flies thru the gears (it does have a short diff though, but its amazingly fast).

or JUN's R33. Capable of doing 238 mph.

Thats true. Skyline is the King of Japanese cars, some people would say thats the NSX but yeh, skyline would whoop an nsx on the track..

The RB26 engine is legendary, the R32 GTR entered 26 races and won all of them. Here in australia they banned it because it won 3 times in a row since it debuted and people from holden and ford got annoyed that theyr V8's couldnt keep up.

"It turns like the afmorementioned supertankers and the cost runs about as high too."

LOL. The skyline is like the fastest in turning, not just practical, on paper too.

4WD+2 DIFS+ 4 wheel steering and the torque split system makes it turn so good you wont believe it..

The RB26 engine can take 600 hp on stock internals! and reached 1400 hp fully tuned.

I understand if you try to flame a shitty car like a hyundai or something but its really funny if you try to make out that the skyline is **** when 99% of reviews are fantastic. - GODZILA-THE KING-SKYLINE- With around 2K you will get the car to 500 hp and it will whoop a 911, while not straining the turbos at a safe 15 psi.

Unlike other cars all the intake tracts in the front bumper, the spoiler , the underbody carbon fibre kit all ads to the car's performance and affects downforce and whatnot. Dont try to make out its a **** car coz it isnt lol.. Not jusy my oppinion its just how it is. dont hate- apreciate.

The 34 GTR is a racing car- for the road, lol , hence GTR. My argument was that your saying its a 5h1t car, but preety much demolishes anything in its class in stock form.

It doesnt handle like poo - its one of the easisest and best handling cars in the world

*insert picture of me banging my head against the keyboard*

The street version (Stock) of the R34 produces 140 bhp and has none of the racing versions suspensions and chassis improvements. The end-version had a 2.5 litre motor producing 280 bhp. Which is fairly impressive, but you can get that in a Citröen as well.

This version had neither the racing improvements that any of the others had mere a reinforced chassis and other places to keep the engine from tearing the car apart.

The engine had a small turbo and was quite fuel efficient, and it sold somewhere around 65000 units.

It was nothing special compared to cars in that class.

Then Nissan began going nuts with turbochargers and racing versions and the likes. Larger engines, HUGE Turbokits, carbon fibre bonnets (sigh) and names like V-Spec Nürburgring and this is where it all goes a bit funky. Every thinks that if you buy an R34 skyline you get the Superduper funky Nismo Racing 1400 four wheel steering intelligent suspension, but in reality you a japanese car with 280 bhp and no trim.

Lol man im talking about the GTR skyline. - the Skyline you find in TDU, the skyline wich was in 2F2F. Also that GTR skyline is stock from the factory and has quite small turbos. Its a 2.6 Litre engine producing "280ps". - that is the advertised power , id you didint know Cars in japan were under a gentlemans agreement not to have more than 280ps. If you dyno a skyline you would find that it actually produces 327bhp.- Remember the GTR is a stock car from the production line and thats the car my statement is about. The car from TDU, the car from 2F2F. And its a damn good car. Also here in Australia, as a "street version" lol, we get the R34 25GT-T with the RB25 neo engine and it makes 280 bhp.

IF i was to talk about tuned skylines from the factory i would talk about the Mines R34 , wich laps the Tsukuba track 6.3 seconds faster than a Mclaren F1, with 600hp. or the Z-tune that has 500bhp and goes around the track faster than a Lambo Galardo, M3 CSL, M5...

I know all about the Tuned version and the V-specced version which isn't covered by the "gentlemans agreement". I've seen one going round the Nürburgring. I've driven one on a test-track and yes. It is a good car. But it is a racing specced car.

This is also the same version as is in the F&F movies. The regular street version has 280 bhp with no suspension trim as I already stated!

The V-Spec version, the Nürburgring versions are racingspecced and made in limited editions for street and they cost a fortune.

This is where it all goes wrong. Most people see the racing version and the stock version as one and the same. They are not. Not by a long shot.

This is where it all goes wrong. Most people see the racing version and the stock version as one and the same. They are not. Not by a long shot.

Ok, The V-Spec and V-Spec II versions of the GT-R are covered by the gentlemans agreement. The non V spec Edition has the same power (same exact engine, RB26DETT) as the V Spec one. What the normal GTR doesnt have is the aero body kit , bigger brembo brakes, and a modified suspension setup and i think it has a bigger rims.

So Vspec II makes same power as normal GT-R (327 bhp). The ones that are limited in production are the N1 versions with the N1 modified engine, the M-Spec and , the one that you said , the Nurburgring one with a highly modified engine based on the N1 - GTR V-specII Nur or Mspec Nur . - they were really fast, 440 bhp i believe.

So what im saying is, your making out that the skyline is a **** car, doesnt handle well and all that lol , but it does.

The V-SpecII model (wich is verry common) is like AU$10,000 more than normal GTR. And both have same power. - Of course Vspec goes round the corner a slight bit faster due to stiffer suspension and such.

You live in the UK? All the skylines that you have there are V-specII's with 2 oil coolers added for top speed. People think its a really good car because it is.

But i know what you mean , Skyline GT-R should not be compared to say Skyline GT-R Z-tune. waaaaaaaaaaayyy different. GT-R and V-specII difference is really small.

Ahh. I see why we've disagreed.

The car is not as poo as I have made out to be, but compared to the cars we see here in the game, it is indeed inferior. And while the race-specced versions rank high up there, the "affordable ones" doesn't grant you the nimbleness and raw power of say a porsche and the slightly tuned ones wont competed with an AMG mercedes. Which is why I say that it is poo compared to cars in here.

It'll make mincemeat out of most everything it sees on the streets. I'll grant you that.

My personal beef with the cars besides that everyone thinks it is cheap and can eat a MacLaren F1 is that it appeals to every boyracer out there. Every customizer who mangles the designs of what is a thing of beauty and installes fiberglass seethrough wheelcages and 60" spinners and what not due to the F'n'F movies.

But that is clearly a matter of taste.

Gay daddy's boys?



Because the car is poor. It is a horrible overpriced piece of japanese carboard with a tuning kit that could make the producers of supertankers bow down in awe.


The Skyline, the Evos and the Imprezas should stay as Rally models or stationwagons.




1st Up.The Skyline GTR is the Fastest Japanese car on the planet. Handles like a supertanker? Dude, You have ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE WHATSOEVER ABOUT THESE CARS. even SKyline HATERS Have commented on the car's Phenominal Handling! Some quote it has "having more grip than a caterpillar D9 Bulldozer" LOOOL!

Each to his own in the end man, but Take THe in your words "POO" Skyline GTR.

Take all these 'fastest car in the world claims" THe panagoni zonda, the Veyron all those.....

99% of their top speed and performance figures are just claims.

THe Nissan Skyline Veilside tuned has attained a CERTIFIED CAUGHT ON VIDEO AND REGISTERED 405 KPH. ON ONE TURBO, for a 2.6 Litre Motor. No other car/2.6 Litre motor powered car in the world has ever done that, weill ever do that. And again. SINGLE Turbo. THe veyron reaches 405+ KPH BUT it is a W16 motor with 4 turbos, but you dont call that ****?

THe Nissan Skyline R34 GTR is one of hte best cars ever made.

Again, Each to his own opninion, but comparing apples to apples, the skyline is infact better than the veyron then. Why do I say so, cause again, look above

2.6 Litre motor
SINGLE TURBO
405 KPH CERTIFIED

Veyron

W16 MOTOR
QUAD TURBO
405+KPH (slightly over 405)

SO actually a car like the veyron should be the biggest load of **** if such a "poo" "cardboard" car comes so close to it..........

OK. IN the game they make the car out to be a very sluggish/underperforming car. That I know. I have played with the R34 on the xbox, and it does feel sluggish and slow, underpowered and heavy. Unlike real life.

Saying it lacks the nimbness and raaw power of a porschem hopefully you mean that in the context of the game and also not in real life. cause in the game yeah the porshces are fast. but again in real life. a 911 turbo is double the price of an R34. So take the R34, and put like $40K in for mods, and you get a porsche/lambo/ferrari beater for something that cost you less than $100K.

BUt again, they could not do this in the game, so the skyline can only be taken up to a sad 400BHP I think. anyhoo, not to many commplaints as the skyline is in the game, and that 's all that matters to me in the end.

Its even more simple than that. It will actually work and let you use it as a day to day supercar :) 99% of people here have no idea that if your Ferrari starts in the morning, you do a dance to thank the heavens, and then take your Audi A4 instead because you want to drive home from work as well.

T'is a well known fact, hence why you see more 911's than anything else.

Exactly why the Skyline is in one of the lowest class, where these other Japanese should go. If they are so bad, don't bother buying them in the game, and smoke the people that do. I would like to see a RX-8 and some other japanese cars, so if they add some, I'll buy them for cruising reasons. :atari:

dont agree with you there mate, i like japanese cars for what they are.

its sometimes just the people who drive them like the ricers in america and 'boy racers/chavs' in europe.

dont get me wrong, i also love old american muscle cars, italian supercars etc.


the cars i hate are:

european hatchbacks...

any french car, opel/vauxhaul.

now those cars are ****;)



back on topic:

dude, i wouldnt mind those cars in TDU but can people please stop posting pointless threads about this?

I find it amusing, had a few laughs reading the 1st page ^^

And I might just add, cause I read a few posts where people critisized hatchbacks and other cars because some stupid ricers drive them...well, hate the drivers, not the cars ;)

fyi vauxhall is english

Vauxhall as a company is American, most parts come from bits of Opel/Chevy/Saab and then assembled in Bedford, UK. It's like saying your Ikea furniture is british cuz u made it in your house but the parts come from Sweden lol!


Jap cars, well reliabilty they'e not bad but Subaru's and Evo's are made from cardboard. Sure they're fast but not very special. It's like you see a standard Evo or a Subaru in the street and you might just look, you see a Skyline GTR in the street and you admire.
Evo's and Scooby's are only special to me if they're stupidly tuned or a bit special/rare i.e. Mines Evo or Impreza 22B.
Jap cars I would like to see would be a Toyota Supra, Nissan Silvia S15, Mines Skyline R34 and maybe like a Toyota MR2 Rev3 or something.

I'm more of a german car fan myself so Mk1 Golf GTI's and Audi 100 S4's please haha.
