The only thing that had twin turbos and was similar to being a skyline around the 1998 time was the 300zx twin turbo.

US= Nothing.

No Skyline GT-R, was ever sold in the US. After the R34 Skyline ended production in 2002, The name Skyline and the name GT-R when down two different paths.
In 2008 the R35 GT-R was the first time a GT-R was sold in the US.


In 2003 the V35 Skyline was launched.

This is US and here it's sold as an Infiniti G35, nothing else. Why have badges of a car that it's not, that's what makes it rice, specially when people ask and you have to tell them that's a G35 with skyline badges to look cool.

It appears you drive a Maxima. Unless you are a proud owner of a G35/Skyline, you may not post on my thread or vote on my poll. Your car isn't fast enough for us. Please post your future opinions on Craigslist. Good day sir.

I like mine rebadged with the true nissan logos. I think that nissan should've stayed true to it's roots and not even created the infiniti naming. Same with toyota/lexus & honda/acura. They just know that we are suckers for name brands and this is a way to squeeze out more money from us.

It's good to ask for advice, but do what you think looks good.

I think the Skyline on back looks cool but I am considering what someone said about other people asking, "Is it a Skyline?"

.... Well, no. It is a G35 but in Japan they...............................
