This feature car is the Nissan Skyline. It may be the most sought after sports car among import tuners. With its Twin turbocharged, seemingly indestructible six cylinder engine, it can contend with anything on the street or track. Although some models come with all wheel drive, for drift purposes they are kept to rear wheel drive. This is also my dream car!
There are several different model years of the skyline that you might see at the drift shows, but for our purposes i will highlight the one that is mostly seen in the actual competitions.
Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R
Production Years: 1999-2002
Engine: RB26DETT, twin turbocharged 2.6L inline 6
Horsepower: claimed 280hp @ 6800rpm but dyno tested as closer to 320hp
Torque: 289lbs/ft @ 4400rpm
There are several variations on the GT-Rs of this generation with more power, better suspension etc. Basically more badass! Though only made in Japan, it is possible to have them registered here in the US. But it is a long and expensive process, one that i believe is worth it (if i had the money.)
