I have relatives in Vancouver and have been a handful of times and didn't any Skylines.



Oh, so you were talking about a stock GTR! I'm kind of in shock and disbelief but at 280hp/293ft-lbs of torque, 3400lbs, 0-60 @ 4.9 secs compared to the MKIV Supra 320hp/325ft-lb, 3500lbs I could see the difference in stock trim.

But this goes against Ichi's experience with driving the GTR.
2JZGTE has waaaay more power under the curve than an RB26DETT.

1JZGTE and RB26DETT are a better comparison.

Have a look at what's out here:

R32/R33 GTRs are about as special as JZA70 Mk3 Supras. They don't suck balls by any means, but the Skyline gets a TON more hype than a 1JZ-powered Mk3. Thanks Gran Turismo!
