Also, on the gt-r's they have a VCD controller, so you can pretty much make your skylines all-time RWD, or by removing a sertain sensor that I have heard about.

Either way, 3000gt's are one of the ugliest and most useless cars. They weigh too much and can't handle they're such pigs. They're mainly str8 line racers or wangan cars.

Hey dumbass can you not read the imformation next to the video...It clearly says SkylineR33 RWD ...Plus there are only 2 tire marks dumbass...And yea I know about Skylines so dont try to tell me somethin I already know...Remember im the RICER ...I mean I do drive 1 of the 5 Japanese Supar Cars...And just to let you know Stock for Stock out of all 5 the Vr4 is the fastest...

You say that as if it's a big deal. I see the 5 Japanese "super" (LOL) cars quite often, and there's not a single thing special or "super" about any one of them other than they were the "sportscar" of each Japanese manufacturer back in the '90's, which really isn't saying much.

What a Supra and a Rex? Stock for stock? Hell no. Any fbody or C5 is faster than your top 5 import stock for stock.

Not sure but I don't even think stock Skyline R34's are bottom 13 second cars...but I'm not sure on that part.

Now modded? Well any car can be fast modded so thats just a stupid ****** argument.

Street. And I would like to see a 10.0 3kgt. Fastest I'm aware is 10.6. Drag/Street doesnt matter, I want to know what the FASTEST 6g72 times are. PERIOD.

Yeah, and to mention, they are 'just' 3800 series I motors. I'm still waiting to see some evidence of these 10.0 3kgt's.

1 of the 5 supercars to come out of the 90s? Nooooottttttt exactly. If anything out of all the top dog sports cars to come from the big 6, your VR4 is last. The BNR34 GT-R, JZA80 TT Supra, Honda/Acura NSX-R, FD3S Series 8 RX-7 and the Z32 300ZX TT are all considered superior to your precious VR4 in terms of being a "true" sports car because the 3KGT was so heavy. The 3KGT is often regarded as a more of a GT car than an all out sports car. If anything the Evo would probably be considered a better balanced more well rounded car than your heavy *** 3KGT. And the Evo/WRX/S15 Silva Spec-R Aero/FTO and the likes are considered the "baby" bad asses to come out Japan. What does it mean when "little brother" Evo is considered a superior car in terms of driving dynamics?

No offense man, but while 3KGTs pack a lot of technology and can make big power easy, people often think of them as having too much technology. AWD, 4WS, active aero, electronic suspension and I think even tuneable exhaust all add up in lbs. Props to the 3KGT big time. It sold very well in the US during it's first few years but honestly STFU. It ain't THAT great. If it was so great, people would have continued buying them and Mitsubishi never would have had to discontinue the car. In terms of being a true "sports car" the R34, NSX, FD and the Supra all outclass the 3KGT. The 3KGT is more on par with a Z32 TT making it at best "tied" for 5th.
