Special Skylines Overrated?

[Malloot]

The rear lights look cool when you brake.

I hav'nt driven any in a long while. At 1st I did, won the Laguna endurance the 1st time with one. But soon became to easy to win with.Needs less hp to be more competitive. I remember I did like them at rome, the awd is nice for the corners there.

I think the Calsonic Skyline is one of the best looking cars in the game, and surely the best looking Skyline.

 

[Joey]

it's an R34, isn't it?
i can never remember...

 

[Option2]

Yea, I think......I'm pretty sure.........the "race versions" than you win (or buy...*Pennzoil*)...........are all R34's.

 

[Joey]

the Kure and Unisia are R33s.

 

[Pupik]

So's the Zexel. But not the Arta-Zexel....if that makes any sense.

Despite the '99 label, the Unisia is an R33.

Jury's still out on the Pennzoil. I looked at the official JGTC web site, and the Pennzoil GT-R raced in 1997-98, so it can't be an R34 in r/l.

But it sure looks like one in the game.

If you want a Skyline challenge, try a fully-tuned Nismo R33 from the special lot. That is one difficult bastard to try to control.

Or, you can get an R32 up and ready for butt-kicking for the meager price of about 300,000 credits. Not bad for a 12-15,000 credit car.

i just realized this on GT3, and thought you may have seen it on the JGTC site:

all the special R34s are FR.

 

[Pupik]

Yeah, they were never 4WD cars in r/l , but I suppose Polyphony wanted to create varying choices (MR, FR, 4WD) because they demand different driving styles.

 

[Joey]

i never would've tough they weren't really AWD. weird.
