Skyline sighting

yesterday i saw a r34 skyline on the freeway
soooo sick that car is way crazy and to top it off he had a built motor
or atleast a little . And you ask how i would know that since i saw it on the freeway
well everytime he shifted a little flame shot out of his exhaust so i figured he had a built motor with bigger injectors shooting more fuel into his motor and since he prolly has a downpipe which eliminates the cat the extra unused fuel was getting burned up in his exaust .
Well anwyway this car was the **** white r34 stock out side looking except for some wheels but i could really tell what kind since we were on the freeway . i wish i could afford a R34 skyline

I just came back from Japan. I saw a few R34 V-Spec II NĂ¼rs, some R34 Sedans, I even took a pic of one. I saw some sweet-*** R33s, and a lot of Silvias and EVOs 3-8.

By the end of my two weeks, I would see a skyline and go "oh. a skyline."
Isn't that wrong?

Now don't get me wrong, if I see a RHD car like a CTR or a Skyline or Evo 7 here in the states, I will still need to change my pants.

But in Japan they're not even eye candy anymore, cause you see so damn many.

Just get like 700 bucks and go see all the Skylines you want.

Could have been an Accord with a Skyline Conversion Kit, and a Turbocharger. Im only half serious...i saw one at a show, thought that it was a skyline, and then i look in the engine bay and it had the Honda emblem on the motor. Yea, you can look to see where the steeringwheel is, but the car had heavy tint on it, so i couldnt see inside to tell.

I still have to see one in person. All ive seen is on posters and the internet. I have seen cars with skyline conversions, but that does not count.

The thing that shocked me the most is how big of a car it actually is. Its like 5-series size in real life. Its hard to believe such a huge hunk of metal can be so quick and nimble.

I was at a car show a few months ago & they had an R32, R33 & S15 Silvia. No one was around the R33 & it wasnt locked so I jumped in the drivers seat & took a few pics...DAMN!! I got out & ran straight to the bathroom to clean out my underwear.

Edit: I gotta get the pics off of my friends camera, ill post em as soon as I can.

I would give my left nut to own a skyline...guess I have the closest thing to a skyline though (totally kidding). Hopefully there will be one at the HIN in B-more in September.
