Ummmuhg Mmmmm Skyline how I love thee. I was thinking what a bad ass malado GTR/M would look like. Now lets all close our eyes and imagine a supercharged LS1 under the hood putting out 650 ponies to... hmm, all four wheels?!Originally posted by CharlieIt's a BMW skyline.

No, I am talking about putting an LS1 in this fictional Bimmer picture that this dude is working on not in a skyline. And actualy there is a growing minority of JDM strip and track Skylines that opt for the 300z or 350z V6 instead of the stock I-6.Originally posted by CobraKaiwhy would you put a LS1 in a Skyline when you can already get close to 1,000hp out of the engine already in it?"My backpack's got jets..."

... why? RB26DETT is a beast...
Same w/the other big two, the SR20DET and the 2JZ-GTE... they're all three almost bulletproof... guys throw 1000rwhp on stock 2JZ bottom ends in some cars.

Or just weight distribution. The shorter V engines would move the weight back but I6 is a torque monster, its why its popular with hard-core turbos.Originally posted by ChocolateKrackersTwo words, weight distribution.
One word, torque.
The rendering is a bit busy for my taste, but maybe I am not the target market for modern cars.Im now E30less.
