This car is overrated when a brown guy living in the UK makes a video about it.

Skyline GT-R competition

3 more years and the sweet sweet R34 GT-R becomes legal, 2024, cant wait. I have already seen a motorex skyline in indiana before, but when it becomes legal I cannot wait! Already considering one, maybe the GTT or 25GT4 Turbo. it has the atessa AWD from the r34 but no rb26, rb25det, but seriously, I am going to go insane when this thing becomes legal. Gonna save 15k to get one of these bad boys, the grind is real. (before you say unrealistic price, just look it up GTT and 25GT4)

The Nürburgring time is 7:52, driven by Nissan's test driver Kazuo Shimizu. Add this?

Nurburgring lap time was most likely 7:52

I think this is the coolest gtr produced by nissan and with a bit of tuning it will be more than enough for an old guy in his early 40s

But even though it's a heck of a car. Something happened that made it street illegal

@Driver
Its probably pretty simple. Do some research on GTR forums and I'm sure you can find a quick fix for the limiter. I've removed limiters from various 90's model nissans with simple & free tricks. You probably just need to clip a wire or change out a resistor.
Of course you could go the expensive route and buy a piggyback ECU or reprogramer.
