The gtr doesn't handle well because of any magic, it handles because it has almost full race suspension and the stickiest, widest tires you can possibly put on a road car and still do okish in rain. That is as good as it will get without huge wings and weight reduction. And when I see it that way, its not impressive at all. Just jacked up from the factory. Boring. Great if you want a cheap, fast car. Also, the car murders its tires so fast from its own weight, you won't have time to really enjoy it before you spend another 2k on a new set of tires. Weight is an enemy. If you don't think so, you have never raced hard enough or long enough to see.

I'll take an r34 over an r35 any day. It's far more fun that way for a brutish awd car.
