Forevrbumpn Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 if they were both 1000hp, a big clunky big block 427, with 800-1000hp matched up with same hp on a half the weight v6/I6 twin turbo, and Iam sure the Skyline is a few hundred lbs lighter, but still, that Linger has a 0-60 of 1.6/1.8sec, and a top speed over 200mph.... I think the Skyline has a weight advantage, and the awd advantage, but the Lingen is just faster on the line.... Ofcourse american cars are great on oval tracks, but the Skyline would kill the vette on street race, or where the race has lots of sharp turns... But I think the topic was based more on realistic raceing, stock to stock, or moderate upgrades... And I thought a true Skyline was illegal in US? It is in Cali last I heard umm... http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/coupe/...st_results.html 0-60 in 4.3 but ya skyline fully decked out on gran turismo was sweet I only Read about the Lingenfelter Vette back in 05' at a magzine stand, and was amzed with its performance. Maybe its not the same, because why would a 800hp upgraded vette be slower than a 500hp upgraded vette? What the hell was I reading- But they did compare its speed to a take off speed of a F-18, like in that ad, infact faster than the take off speed of the jet Quote I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

Guest beatitouttheframe Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 nissan owns infintiy i think but they stopped making the skyline in 03 forgive me lol because the underground racers loved to out run the cops there so the law took it up with nissan and they had to stop but i think there was a threat made..to make them stop we will never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
