The infinity is the skyline?
 
Driving off after work yesterday saw the back of a car and saw the words "skyline" long emblem or something. I was like WTF. Looked like a G-35 piggy or something? Is this true? That car has no power.....skyline ok.... Infiniti owners think they own a skyline?

yeah it is.

Skyline does not = R34. It's a model name just like a civic or accord in japan.

And yes the G35 is the skyline.

oh but a s2k can beat it no prob........I think I watched ot many movies of 1,000HP skyline vids in Japan or something so I was trying to do a similar analogy.

^^ you're talking about the skyline GTR...and no, stock to stock you'll get your a$$ toasted by a well driven 6-spd g35 coupe (straight line race).

In Japan the Infiniti G35 is known as the Nissan Skyline.

Heh, if those numbers are correct, it would be for race 1 through 5 and then the S2000 would be needing a new clutch.

I am not S2000 bashing, but I have to think that the G35 is going to put up its numbers with a lot less effort than the S2000.
