Ow, my BRAIN! Friggen eh. Okay, first of all, WHICH Skyline are you all talking about?! You could all ahve a diffrent model in mind. good lord! Second, the Supra really doesn't need to be AWD because it already handles like one. Thats what makes it so cool! And the engine is overly electronicaly controled, still, AWD handling, basically. Why would you want it suercharged rather than its already Turbo charged set up? Superchargers are MUCH heavier than turbos and don't get as much power from an engine, so again, I ask WHY?!
Oh, to answer the question at hand :mrgreen: The Supra is KILLER! But I will take a Skyline GT-R 33 Spec-V please, thank you very much.
These two cars are very different, which makes them difficult to compare. Just look at the prices and you'll get an idea of what I'm talking about. If I had the money then I'd go for the Skyline R33 or R34. As it stands I could afford the 98 Twin Turbo Supra, with some luck. The Skyline, however, it beyond my grasp.

Aug 18, 2003, 5:43 PM
Hmm, so far there's only a pic of one Supra which EVERYONE has seen and then a little Remote Controled (or SOMETHING!) R-34. Not the best comparison. Anyway, there's also a diffrence in choosing a stock and then a customed tuned one. Stock? Yes, then the Skyline R-34 V-Spec. If I could have whatever goodies I wanted on it? Well, then behold this, some of you Skyline people might have a change of mind

It's called a Supra S900 AB-Flug

Well, as I have said it before, the Skyline GT-R (from R32 to R34) is my favorite japanese sports car along with the RX7.
But my favorite "Sky" GT-R version is the R33 V-Spec and its respective variations, the Nismo 400R Preceiding model and the GT-R 4door Autech Version tuned by Nismo.

Uh...it really depends on what model you're talking about: R32, R33, R34. And about how you can tune it better because it's newer; not entirely true. Old cars can have more tuning products on hand than newer cars.
But getting on hand with the topic; I'd take an R34 GT-R V-Spec 2. It's such a beast and Supra's don't look that good to me. The R34 looks good, is amazingly fast and yeh.
And also for tuning reasons. The legendary RB26DETT is an easy bugger to tune; you can get 1200HP from it!

it is really old, I'm suprised I didn't post a response before, but anyway I say supra because before 2 fast 2 furious only true sports car knew what a skyline was, then when the movie came everybody loves it and most of them don't know one thing about it, I know the first movie had a similar effect on the supra but not to the same extent because many people already knew about the supra, so basically I'm just sick of ricers talking but not knowing about the skyline, it's a fantastic car no doubt but it's becomming a bit overrated IMO

Jul 19, 2004, 2:07 AM
Yep the skyline definately,
With regards to looks the supra has a great overall shape, and the 1991 onwards model is much better looking than the R 30 and R 31 and R 32 skyline, But performance wise the r32 gts 25 and gt3 are immaculate. Overall the R33 vspec 1 UK spec would be my favourite with the R34 gtr v spec seccond to that. Anyway the supra is heavier than the skyline gtr whcih is also driftable aswell just tweak round the atessa systems diffs or bore it out to 400+ BHP.

the skyline or supra. you have to take everything in to mind.
the GT-R skylines are probebly one of the best time attack cars in the world. for those who dont know the skyine beet the world record in track times. JUST because of its AWD system. in the 1/4 times. the skyline all the way in the first part. then the RWD well catch up.
know for aerodynamics. the supra wins hands down.
there are alot more topics on the ups and downs on supras and skylines these are just a few topics.
if you guys choose the supra just because of the styling ( witch i must say is really cool ). the skyline can be just as good lookin.

Supra GT-FOUR
Jul 28, 2004, 4:12 PM
If you are looking for top end Speed!!! :twisted: (and who in their right mind isnt??? 8) )
Supra all the way, that AWD is only good for launching from a dead stop but once the car picks up traction all that extra weight can be quite a drag.
Take the Jun JZA 80 Supra which ran 249mph :shock: which in my humble opinion is damn good for a 3.2 litre turbocharged Straight 6 engine. the damn Mclaren F1 has a 6.1 litre V12 engine and does 240mph :x ... need i say more??? :lol:

The difference is that the F1 engine will last for 100 years and will definitely drink less fuel than the tuned Supra engine. It is also NA which is an advantage. Plus an F1 is simply much more than a (very) fast car. :)

That's because it is a Skyline. It is the V35 Skyline which is rebadged G35 for America. Even the four-door version is a real Skyline. You can't say the Japanese, home of the Skyline, lie about the G35 being a Skyline. The GT-R will be based off the G35/Skyline but instead of the Skyline badge, it will simply be called the GT-R.
