I don't think that Infiniti and Skyline go together. Since in Japan and around the world Skyline is Nissan. Besides we are all driving nissans anyways. I didn't but the 350gt emblem on cause I like the clean look Here is what I did: I also changed my wheel center caps to nissan so it looks consist. People ask all the time whether its a real skyline. I bet alot of the guys here with badging get that too. Courtesyparts.com sells them.

Besides the right hand drive difference, does everyone know for sure if we got the same exact engine and hp/tq as the Skyline? Cause if we don't, then that would put some of you guys in the same category as the guys who put M3 or 330 emblems on the 323, etc.

Putting a Nissan emblem on my Infiniti just seems retarted, we have Nissan and Infiniti here and Infiniti is above Nissan, just like Lexus/toyota Acura/honda etc... its just as gay when people put Honda badges on their integras/RSX's, it WHACK!!!
To people who are into Japanese cars. The name Skyline is rated above Infiniti, Acura, or whatever name these car manufacturers come up in the North America. In Japan and car enthusiast's world, Skyline has far better reputation than the name "Infiniti".

^^ Agreed
Incase you didn't notice, Infiniti rebaged the car initially. Infiniti is just a brand made up to sale cars, they don't actually make anything. Look all of the hardware in your car, the Nissan markings out number the Infiniti markings 500 to 1. The vin number, the engine, the body moldings, the suspension,.... ALL manufactured/assembled by Nissan in Nissan plants.
Then sold to Americans as Infiniti's because we like spending money on name rec.
For the Skyline Nissan is starting to notice the error of their ways. Note the GTR being released as a Nissan and not an Infiniti. There is a hertige behind this car in the Nissan line.
