Advantages: Supersonic Cruise Machine Disadvantages: Not many
from the driving experience, and it's blisteringly quick, despite the throttle lag below 3000rpm. Power has been restrained to satisfy Japanese restrictions and the maximum speed is held at 155mph to appease European sensibilities. But it's the phenomenal acceleration which matters most in a country with a 70mph limit. The Skyline is roomy and well-equipped, too, though a trifle drably-trimmed. You can have the Japanese imports delimited and it isn't as costly as you'd imagine. You'll need a delimiter which looks just like a little black box (and maybe with speed you could do with a Black Box). You'll also need someone with sound electrical knowledge. You do get instructions with the delimiter but I wouldn't try doing it yourself. You'll redline at 8000rpm.
The GT-R has a nice computer multi-function display showing torque, power ...

Advantages: Great location, beautiful rooms, huge beds Disadvantages: Very expensive food and drinks, car parking was £12 a night!

Location
We found the Sheraton Skyline fairly easy to find. The hotel website allows you to print off a map and this made it quite easy to find the hotel if it wasn't for my boyfriend taking a few wrong turns! The hotel is on a large road that is absolutely heaving with hotels. Literally the whole road consists of hotels, some very large and impressive ones such as the Marriott. We were flying from Heathrow airport the next day and this hotel was about a 10-minute drive to Heathrow (at the most) and was in an extremely convenient location.
Arrival
Upon arrival we followed directions to the car park. We ...
Advantages: fantastic performance, very reliable, stunning timeless looks, affordable to drive. Disadvantages: britains speed limits and jelly mould cars getting in my way!
Well approaching 30yrs old and I decided this year was as good a year as any to have midlife crisis and finally get hold of the car I've always wanted. A Nissan Skyline. After having owned it for six months I thought I'd share my thoughts with other potential buyers of an R33 which is the most popular and more importantly affordable model with my generation so grab a coffee, sit back and see what you think.
I've researched into these cars for over a year now and fell in love with them since getting my grubby mitts on one in GranTurismo on the playstation1five years ago and seeing how tuneable it was which is pretty much where everyone else in my generation first had a shot in one hehehe!. That was the extent of my knowledge on them and to be honest is pretty much everyone elses admission of knowledge when I talk to them about it ...
