G35 and the Skyline
#16
That's really a Skyline. It has the steering wheel on the right side. Someone would find a 240SX with the steering wheel on the right side in the US and convert it to a Skyline? Both the Skyline and 240SX are Nissan products so perhaps they have some similiarities, but there's no way that was a 240SX at one time.

That's a Skyline for sure. I know of two 240SX's in my area that have been painstakingly "converted" to look like a Skyline but when you look at the car you can clearly tell it is a 240, almost every body panel is different in the two especially in the rear. I can say with great confidence that this is a real Skyline.

The pic doesn't give a good side shot of the "skyline" so it's hard to tell, but I think it's a 240sx with work done to make it look like a skyline.

Sike!!!! You must be hating on my boy's ride.
BTW who are you to tell me what kind of car this is??? What next, your probably going to say you saw this on ebay too? Obviously you haven't seen a R33 to know.

That is a R33 GTR without a doubt. That generation looked the most like the S14 240sx. However, the size of the car in the picture next to the G35 Coupe and the height plus the sharpness of the rearend tells me its real. 240sx with a conversion and bodykit will not have the flared fenders or be as big as that car.
Besides look at the interior with right hand drive and the R33 seat tops. Anyone who is trying to copy might as well just buy a Skyline for the cost of making it look that close.

hey, did yer friend buy that GT-R off of Irving? he's the only guy from NY i know with that color gt-r and he was selling it. its looking mighty clean!
ryan- sum dood at a car show came up to me and asked me if my bro's gt-r was real and claimed it was a 240sx with a skyline front. i told him look at the steering wheel, and he says, "thats easy to do a whole conversion". i told him "so go do it." no offense to you tho, i can see how people think that, but the rear quarter panels look genuine gt-r to me. in any case, only idiots would go around claiming they have a gt-r when they are really driving a 240, lol!
