[jjson]

[jjson]

c'mon i need some replies plz.. doing a stupid survey for volunteer

[vraa]

Well, without the specs of each car, I'm going to guess just randomly and say the R34 is faster.

It's not everday you see a Skyline.. :)

[jjson]

R34 500 BHP, around 400 lb ft torque

Saleen 700BHP

Saleen. One of fastest cars made. NO doubt weight to Horsepower insane.

Saleen no doubt , you can't compare a true supercar with the Nissan Skyline ....

tho the skyline price was excellent for its performance

here r some proof of the skyline

Saleen SR7 Twin Turbo

Saleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen...

[bayrider]

no chance in hell the Skyline could compete with the Saleen S7 Twin Turbo. If you pick up this months Road & Track you will see that the Saleen S7 beat out an Indy/Champ car a Daytona Car and a Trans-Am car... prettydamn good if u ask me. Besides the fact that the Saleen is probably the sexiest thing on wheels, its also super light, aerodynamic, FAST and has a top speed of 206mph (in a 1 mile run) according to Road & Track... Saleen says its able to reach 235mph. The skyline, though looks good and has a lot of power, is absolutely un-aerodynamic.

i actually saw a Skyline R-32 on Monday and i've seen one other skyline in my life. I'm pretty sure the odds of seeing a skyline or a Saleen S7 are just about equal. Theyre both rare, one due to its price, the other due to the fact its not available in this continent.

[El Bourricot]

Right well I saw a Skyline in London. And I've never seen a S7 in my life (except in Bruce Almighty of course).

Weight... engine specs?

Torque curves?

I'll need all of the things like that before I can decide.

You can have a 200 HP / 200 lbs/tq car vs a 150 HP / 150 lbs tq one and have the less powerful one win due to weight.

Ruins handling? You gotta be kidding me...

If you're talking about stock for stock on quarter miles, obviously the Z-tune is no match for the Saleen. On track, it depends a lot on the driver as well, either could win. Potential wise, the Z-tune can be pushed further than the specs say, as long as you have the money.

[bayrider]

r u saying the Saleen S7 can't handle and is made for straight line accelleration only?

[yanman]

Nope, I'm not saying that at all, I said either could win.

EDIT: For the price you'd pay for a Saleen, you'd obviously expect a lot out of it. I'm not saying the Saleen can't handle, but here we're comparing a supercar to a sports car (stock for stock), so obviously the Saleen will most likely dominate.

skyline

[El Bourricot]

Looks-wise, the S7 is faster :p

[kiall]

skyline has indepently controlled wheels and diffs

[jjson]

well over power/weight the saleen has the advantage.. but a automotive review tested the z-tune 0-400 m run with around 10.06 secs during development and the saleen 10.7 secs with the quarter mile (402.25m)

[kiall]

skyline will win just over chip it ans your sorted

[theyarecomingforyou]

The R34 looks like a tank... my vote goes to the one that isn't a brick. Saleen gets my vote.
