It is a Nissan Skyline GT in Japan. Did you even know that?!?  A lot of people do that, I actually bought him the "skyline" badge for his birthday, its the same as us buying the mondeo badges and putting them in tha back. see

if you notice his car, he rarely cleans the rims cause a little bit of brake dust on his rims makes it look kine gun-metalish. Blends in nice with the "Dymond Graphite" color of the car
I want that, but I drive it all the time 
I'm wanting to get some nice Rota Boost wheels in Gunmetal for the winter season so I don't have to worry about brakedust. Sadly though brakedust + gold wheels =

these aren't rated one of top 10 engines in the world annually for no reason. very reliable and can take a pretty good amount of modding. i wouldn't say they were bullet proof, but compared against other engines with the same mods the VQ will weather the test of time better than most.
the G35 is a sweet car, glad nissan upped the hp.

I HIGHLY doubt this thing had a RB26DETT - if that's what you're saying.

IIRC... someone had a turbo SVT that had over 400 hp...
me, keyser, etc. . .
point is, the weak links are the pistons and where the rings are on them. The rod BEARINGS are weak links, and that has something to do with the belabored point of either lubrication, bearing clearances, etc. Who knows, who cares, I went for the forged pistons, total seal rings, and for added safety forged rods. . .I've run 18psi on 93 without audible detonation, so I figure I'm safe so far. . .the block and crank that svt produced can take all the abuse you throw at it. . .remember, the stock pistons and ring lands were created for a high CR NA car, not a FI car. . .

I'd say negatory. Body kit is tacky. The rear is not good. Infinity frill doesn't flow with the rest of the car now. And why did he put my initials on the hood?
