22B....R34 SKYLINE....ESCORT COSWORTH
There is no question these cars have cemented there places in history.
But given the choice out of the three which one would you want to own, for me its probely the Skyline.

Having been passenger in all three motors with equally mad drivers I would say Skyline, 22B then Cossie. Skyline seriously scary, 22B not far behind. Cosworth was quite tame in comparison though I think in looks department it holds its own!

I nearly kept up with a skyline once back when my car was completely standard. All 217bhp of it lol. I was amazed I even kept near it! Got a vid to prove it aswell. Also, got the registration number of the skyline off the vid, then went to get an insurance quote on it to see exactly what it was....it was a "Nissan Skyline 2.6i (97-99) GT-R 2568cc 2dr". That's not an R34 tho is it! What does the 'R34' bit refer to? The body shape? Engine? Sorry if I'm being a dumbass, but I don't know anything about skylines!
When I was younger I always used to want an escort cossie, but then I converted to the impreza for some reason. I think I would have to have a go in all of 'em to decide first really! I think it would be between the cossie & 22b tho

Why have a car like a skyline and drive slowly infront of someone trying to have a go at you in an impreza tho?? If he could have eaten me alive he would have taken great pleasure in doing so, surely?? That's one of the main reasons you would own a car like that, no? Plus you can hear him flooring it in the distance over my engine, so I doubt he's taking it easy like. I dunno! I don't know enough about skylines, it might have been a 'slow one' if there's such a thing.

I cant comment for what the skyline driver did and why, just that if he was in control of a GTR and felt like it it would have dissapeared.
Yes they are heavy, but suffer less transmission losses than a permanent AWD scoob dont forget.
Just speaking from experience on these cars

Yeah I had a run up on him like, and then he started trying when he saw me comin lol. Later on (there's another vid on my myspace of this) he caught me offguard and I couldn't catch him. I should've changed down to 3rd but instead I just floored it in 4th and he was away. Caught up with him & overtook him after tho lol. But yeah he wasn't trying then
