It belongs to a good friend of mine CJ
He just drove it all the way from Cali cross country and just got into richmond
We met up at starbux and he let me drive it
Pretty nice but its mostly stock so it wasnt terribly fast.

Re: Skyline at Starbucks tonight
OMG a Skyline! I never really got why everyone gets so happy in the pants over these cars. I mean yeah, they are great cars and the R34s look great, but at the price, it seems it ought to be. In japan they are just as common as civics and mustangs, it just sucks that the whole importing process into the United States is so strict that people can charge ridiculous amounts of money for them in the states. What model was is by the way R32, 33?
Well the rb is like the 2jz but with awd
So you can get 700-800whp relatively easily and run 10's on street tires
Yeah i know...I dont see what the big deal is

I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but it's a thing 
Nice meeting you as well Jen; I'm sure I'll run into you guys again.

Re: Skyline at Starbucks tonight
Ok, and I can stick an LS1 into my FD and get the same power, probably cheaper, and run 10's all day without breaking anything. I'm not trying to say skylines aren't nice, they definitely are, but I just don't know what someone would spend over 40k on a used one like I have seen many times. For the rarity factor, yes, the cars are very nice, but I'm not going to drool over a stock skyline.
Eat me.

Re: Skyline at Starbucks tonight
running 10's isn't shit... can you get fenderflares or roll the fenders easily on the skyling and run some stretched tires... and custom wheels... until that happens, there is no big deal, it's just a nissan.
