Isnt the Cressida the old square looking car? I've never heard of a cressida so I looked it up on google.com and all i got were ugly pics.
searched to and just found old am sedans.. not a pretty sight
 
ok so both beautiful cars i suppose , BUT which one drifts better? Nissan is a strong competitor against Toyota. Supra doesnt go far against Skyline. The AE86 doesn't really compete at all. what u guys think? (keep it in Gran Turismo 4 drifting)
 
Nissan Blitzes Toyota in GT4 drifting.

Nissan Having:
Silvia's: S13,S14,S15
Skylines: R30, R31, R32 GTS-t, R32 S-tune, and GTR, Same apply's for R33 and R34

(Mental Blank, Many more im sure)

Toyota, has like Altezza, Supra.. AE86 <---though these car's are nice, it has nothing against Nissans in the game.
 
nissan has still far more cars then toyota..

I have tryed to make the ae86 drift but it wont..
sure.. call me newbie on drifting but the MNP skyline is more fun to drive in both race and drifting..
 
It is pretty close for me but because i drive an 1982 bluebirds with an rb20 turbo it rocks nobody knows what is underneath the hood they think i am just a idiot with bigrims and a nice paint job and then down victohrabour road or on the track it also kicks major arse.
 
for me im a toyota man, i havent got ne thing against nissans its jus coz i drift with a trueno that i like toyota.....but maybe wen i get tired of my trueno then i'll change to a silvia or sumfin
 
Nissan has the G35 coupe. So if I had to choose it would certainly be Nissan.

ae86 = ugly paintjob, crappy engine, terrible handling (mayby thats why its cheaper)

-Stylin' for its day.
-A 20 year old engine that is used in racing to this day.
-An archaic chassis/suspension design that can _still_ keep up with todays technologically advanced cars.

Maybe you are blaming the car instead of the driver.

Hmmm...I'll be forced to go along with that to a point.

But the fact of the matter is that the ae86 is very old technology that can be pushed by a skilled driver. On paper though, it can't hold a candle to today's sport coupes.
 
Hehehe I confess. I drifted the trueno for a tiney bit of time....loving it, but now it's impossible again. Plus I think it looks crap too, although I understand what makes people love it....

I would definatly choose nissan. The silvia, and the G35 yes......but I just love silvia cars:tup: Oh and the FR Skylines yes...
I dont like the supra, dont like the trueno, do like lexus but well.....I dunno.......it's not my fav. brand at least:)

Edit: Well d3p0 when the trueno still wins but looses on paper, it means it's just got a better driver. If that driver would swap with a skyline it would own the trueno:sly:

Watch your option videos.. 160hp ae86's can beat stock skylines given a few laps or a twisty road.
 
That and an older video where two lightly tuned ae86's each pass a skyline over a few laps at a circuit.

Don't forget that ae86's are competititve with all of todays new machines in just about any drifting series.

God, people don't know sarcasm when they see it. The only cool thing about Cressidas is the 2.8 engine.
 
I think it's kinda funny when people debate over cars that they have probably never seen. I love this FR skyline thing, people talk about FR skylines as if they're somehow rare. Nearly all Skylines are FR, I saw 2 GTR's today and at least a couple of dozen normal Skylines. Also, a G35 isn't a Nissan, the Nissan model is the V35 Skyline. As for Truenos, there's nothing wrong with them, they have decent power for being so small and power isn't everything - just because something's quick in a straight line doesn't make it quick round a corner and races are won and lost in corners not straights.

It doesn't matter what you start with, it's what you do to it that counts. The other weekend I watched a Starlet with a CA18det clean up a couple of R32 GTRs, an RX7, an EVO, a Primera, a Z31 300ZX, an AE86, a GTST, Some Honda things and a bunch of other cars. Enough money can make pretty much any car quick.
