dude, i think these people area all nuts...yes i said it. it does look alot like the r-34. but it has that indefineable difference that sets it apart from the R34. the R-34 left such an impression on the world that Nissan should NOT have changed the look of the GT-R as much as they did. i mean yea it still has those taillights
but dude, what's gonna be more intimidating? the proto, or this thing. imagine you're at a street race and you're driving say...a NSX, the proto pulls up beside you...you're scared shitless cause you know what kind of rep the skyline has held since late 60's. say that instead of the proto pulling up beside you at the line, this beautiful creation pops a squat beside you i'd shit my pants. not only does it have the look of the R-34, it's known world wide as a skyline, not that the proto isn't, but this would look more intimidating than the proto...Nissan ****ed up when they changed the skyline to what it will be for '07, it's still my favourite car...but it's just not as agressive asthetically as the R-34. anyways you get the point. |

. . . the hole discussion about how much the Nissan Proto looks so diffrent from the R34 is pointless . . .
1) Nissan Engineers don't care about R34 Streetpresence as they created that thing and look at the car from a point no one of us look at. 2) I don't like the Proto too and the V6 option either ! But Aerodynamics will be far better then on the r34 and the engine cheaper (this time the Skyline should be build to win money- the R32 to R34 were never a benefit for Nissan. 3) Ask somebody from Dubai to make an inquiery at Veilside Japan to create a new body for the R34 (like the one photoshoped here) and then let's compare it to the Final New GTR . . . (like you really not need to wait for the new RX7, buy a 2001 SpiritR and add a Veilside Fortune or diffrent Widebody and you will have a crying good looking and powerfull car that can keep it up with many new sports cars) . .anyway nice job dude ![]() |

. . . . about design and proportion.
What is imposing on a R34 are, next to the agressiv front, the wheel-arch enlargements. They give the car presents, sort of muscles . . . Same for the M3 for exemple. That's why the GTT allways looks less imposing. If you add the Sunline racing wide body to a GTR34, it will get more more imposing. (out of my way . .worms) . . . so the actual concept tries the edge-design with flat arches,infact the car is allready larger then usual cars,but you don't see it. I allowed my self to do a little photoshop on one picture from www.zerotohundred.com, posted by Pharoahe in the thread First driving impressions of a 34 For me something like this looks much more imposing then any shown Concept in the last 2 yaers! ![]() |

With the current trend in the Us for retro muscle cars I think your prototype would fit in massively well. Add to the fact that the rest of world would instantly recognise it as an evolution of the R34 and following on from that a natural progression of the Skyline instead of a completely new car I think it would be a massive success.
The only question is why didn't they come up with it ![]() |

You should try & persuade someone to make a bodykit for the new model when it comes out. That would be an awesome mod.
If the likes of NISMO don't snap it up, you could ask everyone - Veilside, C-West, Carisma (you saw what they did to that TVR) - someone is bound to take it on, they would be fools not to (If I had the money, I'd pay for it myself). Remember me if it comes to pass.... ![]()
