    I agree 1000%! I've seen some seriously fast Japanese cars but there is nothing like the sound of a real high compression big block with a nasty cam!! I build horsepower for a living and I've yet to see a Japanese motor put out 10,000 horsepower on nitromethane but i'm standing here right now looking at one that will that's made right here in America!

      Very true but that 10,000 hp is not streetable. I like American muscle and Japanese tech lol. I must say I hate the v8 in my silverado what a pos this thing is. I'm trying to get an lq9 to mod and drop in with a cable conversion because this fly by wire is crap.

        Yeah those little small blocks GM puts in those trucks need to be a little more potent. My son drives a 06 short bed and always complained of no power so we put in a 422 Stroker small block in it with some real nice Brodix heads and a all roller setup and now he just complains about gas millage! Lol

Until I can afford my Nissian GTR of course
          Where do you think my screen name came from. New skyline started as a g35 base and was heavily changed. Skyline g35. Just left the e out lol.

          It's one of my many"dream" cars.

                My buddy has a 35. Had a flat black paint job, with black rims. Its deff sick. I use to have a RHD 33gtr RB25, real deal skyline. I loved it, but had to get a more practical car for the family. I have a 4 door S4 now, an the wife drives a Tahoe. An I have 7 trucks for my business. Here's a couple pics of the car. She was a beut!

                  Whoops, hit the wrong letter. It was a GTS not GTR. It had the single turbo, not the twin snails like the RB26. Still was a gem.

                    I see some pretty sweet rides here. I wish I had some pics to throw up, but they wouldn't be too impressive. I have a 71 and a 72 mercury cougar, a 96 accord, and my daily driver is a 73 charger. None in super great condition, but I love them. I Don't know if I ever want a new car. I prefer the old ones.

                        Nice ride ! I had an 05 with a 3200 stall converter with a custom tune. 425 Hp ran pretty good. I wanted to make it 600 Hp money pit lol. It wasn't practical for me anymore so I sold it.

                        Get an MSD dashhawk for it! Sick way to monitor everything and do diag work!
                        U can monitor 6 things at once and all off the factory sensors. The screen changes colors as temps hit a certain temp etc.
                        Blah blah blah Latina's ass...blah blah blah!

                          first thing I have to do is change the radius rod bushings and every other bushing to get the crap rubber ones out of there and replace them with urethane bushings. I'll be putting some HD King springs in it at stock height and more than likelly some Koni adjustable shocks. after all that I'll get into the performance parts. thanks for the input on the Dashhawk! sounds like something I could possibly use. def. could use an oil pressure gauge!

                            Check out pedders brand susp for the goat. It's great stuff!

                            U can monitor a ton of shit with that Dashawk. I used it got trans temp for the 3200 stall. Real time coolant temp, oil temp. Can't recall them all.

                            It just plugs into the obd2 diag plug then I ran the cable to the passenger side f the wheel and the Dashawk mounting brkt slides into the groove in the dash to the pass side of the wheel. Takes 5 minutes to set it up. If it doesn't link up to the car make sure the Dashawk has the newest software version on it.

                              yeah, peddlers was the only brand I was gonna use. also heard the whiteline RR bushings were great too though. there is a place that makes a killer gauge pod for the dash that looks factory. it also has the correct colors and "gto" decal on the faces.

                                Yeah I remember that gauge setup. I liked the Dashawk better function wise. U can do diag work and monitor way more then what u will get with 2-3 gauges in that pod. Just depends on what u wanna go with. I hate being at the mercy of ppl if I need to scan my car. My cars are always tweaked so I need to be able to see what's going on if I have an issue.
