![http://www.roadandtrack.com/assets/image/782004112827.jpg](http://www.roadandtrack.com/assets/image/782004112827.jpg) 350Z GT from Nismo, 300BHP NA i6. Full article: [http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section\_id=2&article\_id=1415](http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section_id=2&article_id=1415) ![http://www.roadandtrack.com/assets/image/0622200418191630.jpg](http://www.roadandtrack.com/assets/image/0622200418191630.jpg) According to the full article found only in the magazine, this Viper gave the JDM guys a run for their money but was spanked by a modest SR20 powered 240SX. LOL!!! [http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section\_id=9&article\_id=1395&page\_number=1](http://www.roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section_id=9&article_id=1395&page_number=1) And Finally, the crown jewel of Nissan performance: 2007 Nissan Skyline GT-R Basic specs: Lotus Fine Tuned Suspension Cosworth developed VQ Power plant, estimated at 450BHP, reported i6 Turbocharged. Due out in 2007 (global distribution!!!), and will probably be wearing the infinity Badge, this ultimate touring machine will roll with the big boys (M what?!?!) Damn that’s hot! ![http://www.drestudios.com/07gtr.jpg](http://www.drestudios.com/07gtr.jpg) Sorry about the image quality, my scanner is ass. DRE [/img] ---

Ya I really dont know about the front of that. But maby we have to take a look at the hole car before we can say anything. ---

the thing that sucks about hole cars is you can never find them. They are always in the ground. Just kidding Benson I love you and your (lack of) spelling 😉 Still, I don’t see how the whole car could look take away from that stubby hood. ---

Based on this pic (I can’t find any other ones) I’m guessing it will have similar curves to the RX-8… I don’t mind the fron so much, but think it would look a lot better in a Z Blue or that vigorous Nissan bronze. DRE ---

I just don’t like the ‘squiggle’ line of the hood. And black is always the wrong color for a skyline. I don’t like the triangle look though (narrow in front, wide in back). If your going to have that either go all the way (Enzo style) or keep it nice and square. Looks weird on the RX-8s too. ---
