yes but its only rated at 280 from the factory.. thats why I said stock vs stock evo, but 5k modified skyline for sure ;)

definately... bulletproof motor.. but both are rated at 280hp. (271 evo, wise asses out there) but the skyline is MUCH heavier.

but some computer tweaks yeild 100+hp on a gt-r.

Thats just how the japenesse to things. It's an unwritten agreement between japanesse manufactures not to make a production rating of over 280hp. (or atleast it used to be that way). Even tho changing some computer numbers free's up alot of hp.

well my friend better and faster are two different things.. for a better comparison I'd take the skyline just because its a skyline... faster, ,stock, Evo.
