Why do people hype this car so much? What's so special about it? Somewhat new to cars, and I never understood why... It looks cool, has almost the perfect body for a kit, but is that it?

I had one in Gran Turismo that could smoke everything including racecars

Paul Walker drove one in FnF2

RB26 sounds excellent at 9,000rpm, the 6-speed is bulletproof and the interior is aight.

Are they seriously banned in US lol. In canada we drive them perfectly fine. If i were to cross the border while driving one, would they turn me around or let me through since I'm canadian?

If they're at least 15 years old you can

It's your car, it's registered in Canada, they won't notnallow you in with it, but you're shit will probably get stolen and/or stripped

There's a certain law that applies nationwide that makes individual states respect each other's extra freedoms or laws (so if you're registered to drive in new jersey, and drive cross country to Cali, they won't ask you to pull out Cali licence plates and a California drivers liscene
Probably applys to Canada to Some degree maybe with some stipulations to public felons or some shit to do with NAFTA
You wouldn't be able to register that car for registration and insurance here though

we do get cool cars. thats just one of the few we can't. there's kids in japan who see an r34 every other day and a supra everyday and wish they were seeing mustangs and other american muscle cars. point is, the grass is always greener. the r34 WILL be in my garage a few years befroe the 25 year rule lets off. taking it out the first day it's legal :)
>>
>>14874291
What? I was just wondering who cares if a old pigfat shitbox is slower than a new Korean shitbox.
And both those cars are faster than mine, and I still don't care.
>>
>>14874103

I want one in Lightning Yellow because it looks cool.
>>
ITT: Ricer faggots who fell for a shitty maymay about a shitbox and don't realize that the R34 is basically a taxi

The GT-R is like the fast version of a Mustang. You are all fapping over a Mustang.

Is that why they stuck the RB26 in the Mustang in F&F3?

Smallish/light coupe with a fair bit of power. What's not to like?

I don't know why, but I feel like photos and video games make the R34 look bigger than it is. The first time I saw one in person (on the street in LA, somehow) I was surprised at how small it was.

R33 > R34

Literally the F50 and F-22 of cars.

cause americans cant get it

also video games and movies

I always enjoy these threads so much.

Nothing but a bunch of idiots arguing over cars they've never touched nor will ever touch. Bonus points for the retards that spread false information on import laws and Skylines in the US

Never change /o/

You will never find a clean one R34, anon. They've all been "tastefully modded" by Bazza and his dickhead mates. Some are 450AWkW track monsters, others are ticking bombs that spend their lives between garages and carpark vape meets.
>>
Fast and furious

They were pretty good cars, nothing amazing but they were better than anything else that japan had made before, *for the most part.

They were easy to control for a car that can potentially push 800 hp

I don't know why but the r33 and the DR30 are the best looking skylines in my eyes. They have that certain charm to them that the r34 doesn't have. That and they are the unloved ones make importing one in the future cheap as fuck.

If you've ever seen one in person, they are actually quite poorly built. Just like the s-chassis. Floppy junk.
Nissan is known for this. Morons (fanboys who've never driven of seen one) will agrue with me.

ignorant midwesterner here. The fuck is a p-plate? Like a learners permit?

>>14878503
When you turn 16 in Australia you can get your L plates. You can only drive with a fully licensed driver in the passenger seat.
When you turn 18 you can sit a test for your red P plates (probation). On your reds you can drive by yourself, with a fee restrictions. (Can't tow, power limits, passenger limits).
After a year you automatically get your green Ps, same as the red but your only restriction is on power.

It varies from state to state.
>>
>>14878733
and green P's are required for two years, then you go on to your open license

in QLD we can get our red P's at 17
>>

"the nissan skyline is so fast that they banned it in the us"

t. normie
>>
>>14879441
So many people want Vic to change it so you can get your Ps at 17, but fuck that.
No way I'd trust 17 year olds to drive by themselves.
>>
Black people drive Skylines here. They're fucking shit wagons.
>>
>>14878733
In Tasmania you get your P plates at 17, with speed and BAC being the only restrictions. Gotta love it.

In Montana you can tow a 3 axle trailer with a 1200hp drag car while drinking a beer when you are 16.

>>14879540
when I was on my L's we required 100 hours of driving and I think 20 of those had to be night driving

but to be honest i think it's not the age, but more so the driver training itself and the absence of defensive driving courses as a pre-requisite for new drivers

That would require you to actually own one, which we all know you can't afford
>>
>>14879597
What are the speed limits? That's piss me off.
>>
>>14879779
I always thought you should have to do at least one defensive driving course before you get your Ps.

Why hasn't anyone become Motorex 2.0 and crash tested and imported any yet? There would probably be a fairly big demand for people don't want to wait 8+ years for an exempt R34 or try to find an actual Motorex for sale.
>>
>>14879911
Because the government put a ban on them, because of the degenerates that were affiliated with Motorex
>>
>>14874136

Race heritage. Track, not rally.

they're banned because we have shitty import laws when it comes to cars. this is more or less the doing of mercedes-benz usa.

Relatively. Photos and especially video games make R34s look almost sedan-sized, when they're not.

Obviously they're not Miata small or anything like that.
