Changing the INFINITI to SKYLINE is no differnt then changing a V6 to a cobra emblem on a mustang.

 

completely different

 

im half way done with my car, just need 3 more parts and im done with the swap . Theres only 2 parts i cant swap, the clock and the seats but i got a plan for the seats

i just picked this up




already did the wheel center caps, emblems, steering wheel
Next is the seats, door sills, and 350Z engine cover oooor a pricey 350GT one from Japan.

 

^^^ the clock can be and has been done...

RRYDE has done a couple at least...

 

Why spend all that money just go get it to say Nissan Skyline 350gt?

The only reason why those Honda guys did it was because the JDM Integra front-end is different from the USDM. The JDM had Rectangular HID lights instead of the USDM circle lights.

That how this JDM crap all started. It started with the JDM front-end conversion. And everything snowballed into this re-badge crap. lol

I mean $200+ just to get your steering wheels to say Nissan?

Well, it's your money.

 

it is my money ^ its all about preference. i dont want to do the whole body kit or big engine mod. Its a settle change is all

and i will pm Ryyde

 

putting skyline is like being a ricer

you don't gain any hp

if you wanted a skyline r35 you should of bought a skyline r35

people with skyline on the back are posers

 

^pretty sure you mean v35, since the R35 isn't a Skyline

 

not knowing your correct vehicles is being a ricer. but hey its your own 2 cents

 

Yeah, the R35 no longer carries the Skyline badge. The R32-R34 did. But for many, it's still considered a Skyline.. GTR..

 

idk the way i see it, nissan took a skyline 350GT and rebadged it Infiniti G35 just as a marketing ploy...skyline is an akward name for a car if you speak english, it makes sense to japanese people for whatever reason but it doesnt make sense over here. Sort of like how they call "Mega Man" "Rock Man" in Japan. So badging it as a Nissan Skyline 350GT really just means you aren't in denial about Infiniti's actually being rebadged Nissans. Its not like putting a type R badge on an RSX because the rsx-s is a step down from the type R, same thing with V6 to V8 mustangs etc, "upgrading" your car with a badge is ricey because you are pretending you have something you don't, but a G35 is a Skyline 350GT. I bet there are some markets where you can get a LHD 350GT if you look around too.

 

this ^^^^^^^^^^^^ +1

 

Skyline badging is pretty lame

 

I'd rather keep my money, and just DE-BADGE the car.

I agree with the saying "to each his own", but anytime I see a re-badged vehicle, the first thought that pops in my head is "man.. he's trying too hard".

*shrugs*

 

the problem is that when people here they word skyline they think:



but that is kind of like hearing lancer and thinking:


when u should be thinking about these
