GT-R you kidding me?

I just wanted to start off by saying Happy New Year to everyone, even though we're already 7 days into the new year. 2008 is going to be a huge year for TheTunerSource.com and I hope you all have a huge year in your personal and business lives as well.

Moving on...

As us North Americans impatiently wait for the drop of the new Nissan GT-R, I wanted to take a look at the legacy of the car by displaying the predecessors of the GT-R: all the Nissan Skylines. Heck, the new Nissan GT-R is just a stripped down version of the Nissan Skyline. Just for anyone that has no idea about this car, in a nutshell, it's a bad-ass car that's designed with racing in mind (GT-R=Gran Turismo Racer), and takes on the big names of Porsche and Ferrari when it comes to racing. Within 2 years of the 1969 Skyline GT-R, the car won 36 racing trophies.
