If you have unlimited budget to spend anything is possible. Say you have 250,000 pounds. What platform would you start with.

My r32 should be able to give him a run for his money when its finished. That a different story tho and a while off yet. Its sure going to raise some pulse on here tho lol.

Well if you want to do it like that I would buy a Caparo as a platform car, or the new Ariel Atom

Doesn't really matter what you start with as long as you've got the budget

Thats exactly my point.......

The post is simply suggesting that with the right tuning, anything is possible but with regards to handling, you can`t really suggest the skyline handles better than the likes of a 360 / 430. Never driven the R35 but obviously from reviews , the car is something else but the thread is , i think, fairly obviously meaning your 32/33/34 models?
To blanket the thread with this feeling of invincibility of all skylines on the road is a little presumptious , don`t you agree.
Most of the skylines in here would get chewed to pieces by standard exotica these days. Not slagging the marque, just that we all have to admit that technology moves on...............we wouldn`t have the R35 if it didn`t!

Oops sorry, meant to add, i know of a certain gentleman with an astonishingly fast caterham type affair with over 500bhp......absolutely bloody terrifying.
He is currently in the process of building an Ultima and has the engine ready for it with around 750BHP.....that will also be a frightening tool. Ok, these are pretty specialist tools i admit but it kind of lends weight to my point.
