I've entered to win...now time to watch the video on loop. Over and over again😅
Can't find a rules and regs page - is this US only?
Ah yes the starter in Gran Turismo 4 when you can't afford a GTR, what a beauty.
smh if you didn't win 30 races with the sunbird they give you after the license test
@@Matt-oq4jqOr that funky looking Mazda concept car if you got all silver in the B licenses
@@thepebbleman the Kusabi was neat
Naw my starter was always the MK III Supra.
lmao I usually grabbed an AW11, tweaked it to be fast enough for Costa Di Amalfi Easy, and go from there.

Hey your steering wheel is on the wrong side!

Who is Jay Dee M.?
this car looks drop dead fucking gorgeous
YEAH
Of all the modern Skyline GT-Rs, it aged well. The R33 is the fat middle kid that everyone ignores. The R34 is the cool one that's been hitting the gym that everyone wants. The R32 is clean and subtle but purposeful.
@@bwofficial1776it’s a shame a lot of people don’t like the R33 personally its my favourite of the lot.
Mostly. The short wheelbase and long overhangs aren't great - especially the front one. Otherwise it's a gem. I've always liked the low beltlines and airy cabins of the era.
@@bwofficial1776 The R32 had a tight body, the R33 put on weight & had a little junk in the trunk, the n the designers returned the R34 to its spiritual roots with a tight body again. In Australia, the R33 GTS-T’s were so popular in the mid-late 2000’s, not because they were great, but because they were cheap. In reality, the R33 was Always the poor mans R32/R34 , in whatever version you could afford .
Just to rub it in:
Im from New Zealand and at least four of my mates had variants of these (all turbo) when we were TEENAGERS
And they weren't that good then in Australia either.
settler post
I swear all the RB cars have become super uncommon day to day in recent years tho
Yea I'm gonna need you to rub it in DEEZNUTZ
@@RegularCars holy shit dude got obliterated like Old Zealand
To me, the R32-R34's have the prefect car shape. It's like they took a basic 2 door 4 seat car, and tightened up every line, tweaked each detail, and made the ideal "normal car" shape.
Agreed. It’s perfect in its simplicity, like a government issued sports car.
It's real, I started to realize the thing I admire about the side-front of my 1st gen is300 and its body lines are the ways in which it invokes the r32-34 Skylines 😂 Nissan nailed the design.
The R32 is perfection, the R33 is ok, but looked pudgy, but they lost me on the R34; it always looked like a GC Impreza with roid rage.
@@Sam-go3mbThe gen 1 is300 is a masterpiece of subtle design. It’s one of those cars that you don’t really notice going past but then once it’s driven by you’re like, what was that?
@@Username-2 yeah I agree of course as a biased owner. It looks quite aggressive, shame the top factory spec is like 220hp.
I knew a guy who owned a black R32. Absolutely beautiful car.
So anyway he traded it for a Mustang Boss 302. Never before have I been so disappointed in someone.
I’m a diehard mustang fan but holy fuck I’d lose my shit if I found out about that 😂
holy f888 what a great episode. this is not an easy car to explain to people who are older than gen z but you did it perfectly ANNNNND you even recorded shots like at the 17:00 minute mark with an old camera. you hit the rose tinted glasses square in this episode. thank you for such great writing and creativity and passion. When I was 16 I was playing gran turismo all day every day and that's what sparked my passion for the skyline but as someone who is nearly 40 I realize that it's more of a character than a car and that's pure magic. it's what any car manufacturer is gagging for. A car that doesn't need to be the best and you'll always forgive it because it's the super hero you love and I think since the mid 2000s cars have all become a little pathetic.
YEAH
Hard to explain to people older than Gen z? Every millenial boy grew up adoring this car from being in video games and the first two fast and furious movies and initial D anime lol.
Your line “Looking st a rose-tinted world through bare eyes”was GREAT. A perfect phrase describing this car and your review. Put that on a t-shirt or a mug, man. Really great video.
R32. If Alphaville Forever Young was not only real concept but an actual car.
I hear these cars are.. Big in Japan.
@@YokaiTheGSDof course, their turbos Sound like a Melody.
Be it nostalgia, rose-tinted glasses, whatever it really is, there is this overwhelming sense that we just don't get cars that are made like this anymore. It's either a grocery-getting sedan/SUV or something sporty with a price-tag 30 grand more than you can afford. I understand Skyline's aren't cheap to afford but I also understand they were affordable in Japan when they came out, and there's so many cars similar to the Skyline from that era that it just feels like we don't get anymore. And there was so much in between too, cars like the 3000gt VR4, the 300zx, hell even the lower echelon like the Prelude, the Eclipse, the Tiburon, the Celica, there's just no market for those anymore it seems, but there was something so truly special about them. Cars that had passion, cars that were fun for the sake of being fun and didn't cost 60 grand after dealer markups. Cars that HAD no dealer markups. It feels like the 80s, 90s, and even early 2000s, had an absolute explosion of fun little cars that held this aura about them that they were so much better than they really were. I owned an '04 Eclipse for quite a few years and sure, the engine only made 150 hp at like 4,500, but it also made 145lbft at like 2,500, so the thing really felt so much faster than it was. And it was LIGHT, it was so incredibly light, the handling made you feel like you were in a racecar. It was a very similar experience to the Miata just FWD and none of the clout. Something about all those cars, and how we just don't get them anymore makes me feel like we lost something so important
There is no way that AWD system weighs 3,000lbs
Yeah I scrolled through looking for the actual weight, to wiki I go
My bad... hyperbolic number delivered flatly.
The system is actually just a second RWD skyline towing the first one.
@@jwlmsJohn Cena is driving it thats why you don't see it
eh, probably only off by one order of magnitude, close enough
I’m from Sydney, Aus, and 15 years ago I owned a stock 89 black R32 GTS-t Type M for all of 3 weeks. I sold it because I was young and wanted ‘mOrE mODs’ in the form of an SR20 Sil80 I saw online.
Selling that Skyline was the worst car decision I made and I remember every moment of those precious 21 days I owned it for.
Long live the R32!
What a stunning car. Always wanted one of these
We had lots of Skylines running around Aus some years ago. It seems like many have either been wrecked or gone into hiding. Now they're rare and special to see again. I get more attention now in my R34 GT-T than I used to - although I usually keep it hidden away too. Owning and driving one is a privilege most people just won't ever be able to have now.
Were you guys always allowed to import these or there were restrictions over there too?
These none left because the yanks are buying them all up. Turbo r32s used to be like 5-10k in newzealand. Now people wanting 20-30 lol 😢
@isaacluke7344, We have been denied them for far too long. Literal military generational lust.
@@ingusmant Import what exactly? Not sure on your context.
Australia has/had a scheme called SEVS (Specialist and enthusiast vehicles). Skylines have been allowed under this.
Funnily enough, the R34 did come in a 2L variant (RB20) but this was deemed not powerful enough for SEVS criteria. Our legislation literally mandated that you could only import the models with larger, more powerful engines 🤣
There were R32 GTSTs running around, but not many, at the time people either went for R32 GTR’s or R33 GTS-T’s.
I wonder how many Australian R34s have been imported into Canada over the last few years because we know that soon we'll be able to gouge the Americans for every last cent.
"It's not just for guys who say 'I wish I was alive in the '80s' and are 37 years old" i could not possibly be more called out than this holy shit
It's funny how the R-34 has the least screen time of all of Paul's cars in both movies he uses them and yet the Skyline becomes this ultimate icon from the Fast franchise.
I was stationed in Iwakuni in 96. Had a girlfriend with a 95 Skyline. Good times.
So she's single?
I heard that Skylines in Japan were like Mustangs here. Cheap speed and they were everywhere.
@@bwofficial1776were until about three to five years ago. Now N/A auto HR34 sedans fetch near $15k.
@@theothertonydutch go find out for us. I wonder if there is any tread left on her tires? Lol.
I like heated seat warmers because it feels like the warm comforting touch of a person cuddling me,
now if only the I can find music telling me I'm enough and not to worry
"touchscreens more sensitive than a theater kid"
Poetry
That sound. That god damn sound. That’s exactly why I put an RB20 in my 240sx, and not a LS
Its better
ok, out of all giveaway cars, this is probably the best car.
Literally every car has been better than this
Meh
@@mk2thg92 technically yes, spiritually no
The GOAT gives it a good run for its money
I pulled into my driveway in my Altima as you were wrapping up the video to and laid eyes on my S13 hatch and it got me all in my feels! Great work Mr. Regular!!!
typical altima driver watching youtube while driving
@@evan12697 lol and don’t you forget it!
Very BAE of you
As a dedicated fan, I must say this is possibly one of your best works..or am i experiencing negative capability because its a Skyline? I know better, but its still a Skyline. Naa..it's just an R32, but thats what makes it so dope. Simple.
This is one of your most poetic videos yet.
It is sad that the number of exciting new cars is getting smaller each year, that’s unquestionable.
But the car culture that existed these past few decades will be kept alive by the current generation. It will die when we die. There are still loads of cool used cars around.
I’m having more fun driving older cars in 2023 than I’d probably have if they were new. There’s appeal in scarcity, there a more tight knit car community than ever, repair tutorials and online order parts, and upgrades.
that was fantastic and the ending was beautiful. glad you gave all those kids a ride haha, its fun to hear gen z are into cars and hopefully they got to drive it. it was really fun listening to all this and watching you keep getting in the back and letting all those hikers and folks drive the car. its really neat to see you share this car with people and thats really what being an enthusiast is all about i feel like. sharing the stories and experiences vs just trying to flex on people. cant wait to hear what people think of and say driving that car, especially non-car folks!
Man the sound of that RB20 is amazing.
Stunning car, excellent video.
The video game parallels and other stuff made me feel like this is part of a weird trilogy of this, the Viper SRT10 not long ago (Spoiled James Weis lol), and the S2000 (the I GET HARD WHEN YOU LOOK AT MY SKYLINE is a silly B-Side to I DON'T NEED THIS, I GOT AN S2000!).
Wouldn't it be great if he did a street race in Rome with a bunch of Fiat 500s, Minis, and a single Ford GT40. It'd cost a fortune! But it would be a sick reference. Or anything with a TVR Speed Twelve.
It's 30yo...ignoring the hype, the fast and furious, the video games...it looks amazing even in 2023. It could have 120hp and I'd want it over most of the sports cars sold today. It is soo clean, well proportioned, it grabs your eyes without screaming at you.
As a former theatre kid( now I am 32) who listens to vaporwave and drives an exactly 30 year Subaru. This review hit me very hard. Thank you.
We lost a good friend about 10 years back. Guy feckin loved Nissans. It's always tough to be reminded he's gone.
The world is better with you in it. It's okay to not be okay.
Thanks for sharing it with fans, and driving it. Such a beautiful car.
Still miss him.
“I watch Adam LZ while she CAMS” RCR literally never misses a joke lol
What makes these jdm cars so valuable to me is when the owners ask, "you wanna go for a ride?" I had an owner who just parked there 1986 toyota ae86 Levin about 1 block down where I was helping my friend move in. I dropped his stuff and just ran over to it and I had a super enjoyable time thinking, "inital d, gran turismo, best motoring"
When I look at this car, the Gran Turismo Arcade soundtrack plays in my head.
Amazing you guys are giving cars like this away. Bravo.
I think Brian's summation at the very end encapsulates what we're all feeling, thinking and living, especially the last 2 years. Well done, sir, well done.
The last 7 minutes of this video is why I love this channel and what videos it produces 👌🏻
Great video. One of the JDM classics I never owned. Was more a toyota guy but I really like the non GTR R32s.
I recently got an r33 gts25t and it's been a super fun ride. The rb engine + skyline chassis combo is indeed magical. Such nice driving cars!
How is this so good? The Skyline has been talked about, movied, blogged, video gamed and been made a legend. I absolutely do not ever need to see one again. And yet this is a great review and makes the car seem new and interesting. Well done!
Best GTST I’ve seen in years.
Just a note, the Honda Preludes mechanical 4WS that owners kept was on the 80s model (as described in the video) but the 90's models from the era of this car had electronic 4WS which most owners eventually disabled. Back in the late 2000s it was standard advice given to new owners of used 4th/5th gen Preludes as the electronic 4WS ECUs/systems were starting to fail due to age and the crashes caused by it were racking up.
Iirc they dropped it altogether for the 5th gen.
@@aaroncollins5188 it was mostly replaced by torque vectoring for the top spec models but some mid-tier models(JDM Si and SiR, european VTi) could be ordered with 4WS
That's what I am here for. I came to this channel for the cars. I stayed for the philosophical/literal audio essays. Keep it up!
This is an amazing review , diving deep into what this car actually means
These cars appeal to me due to the aforementioned feeling of nostalgia. For me it's conceived nostalgia I haven't even ever experienced. These cars are almost a portal into the past yet are somewhat quite mundane and ordinary. Without the engine in this car it's just a slightly more than average late 80s-90s car and that is non more evident in the sedans, yet to me this car stands for more than just it's engine , I see it as a time when people cared about their craft, the skyline of the 80s and 90s excites my love for attention to detail, these cars are a piece of art in their own way
Even though realistically they're just a rwd Altima
This is your best review. I have no love for R32s or Skylines in general, but this was poetry in motion. The reverence, and irreverence, paid tops everything before this. Well done.
Being from New Zealand it's so funny to see a little Sunny like this being so hyped
Love your stuff bro.
I was thinking about this car last night and this video popped up this morning.
Gaddamn can this man make me nostalgic for something I never had any interest in. Bravo Mr. Regular, bravo 👏👏👏
Beautiful timeless car. I saw my first Skyline GTS-T in person back in 2008 here in Canada since our antique import law allows 15 yr old vehicles. It was a dark grey/black model, surprised the hell out of me when I looked over and saw it pass me on the road and I couldn't take my eyes off it on the commute to work.
Ive been dailying a 370gt skyline for years. this made me smile
pat yourself on the back for this one. easily your best video yet. a lot of who you are was left here.
The white paint on this is perfect, what a beauty
I KNEW IT!!!!! Literally saw this car pass my house and I knew it was happening!!!!!
Your commentary/writing has gotten SO GOOD! You really have found your flow. Ever think about writing a book?
Honestly a book could be a great idea
This guy's commentary is impressive.
If it doesn't have the subtitle as "HOT DICKS! HOT DICKS! HOT DICKS!", I'll be somewhat disappointed.
What a beautiful looking 32, simple and clean 🤩
Absolutely amazing. We miss out on such great cars in the U.S.
Not anymore, go get you one while you still can! I got myself this exact model last year, also a 60th anniversary 👌🏼
Just wanted to mention, these GTS-Ts are quite fine cars to daily drive too. Parts are sadly getting rarer by the day, but keep up with typical maintenance & don’t thrash them around 24/7, they’ll keep going for a really long time. I’ve got 220,000 miles on my ‘91 GTS-T, on my 7th year owning it, & had nothing more serious than a fuel pump leave me stranded. I hope whoever wins this one will enjoy it instead of leaving it in a garage.
Deep cut with the VCL reference. Ah, good times. I still miss Yerf though. :')
This was a vindicating review. Thank you Mr. Regular.
Thank you for making this enjoyable video. I almost never ever see these cars in Oregon so I still find them rather interesting.
Beautifully written again man.
Our lord and savior, the Skyline 🙏 Another great video, Mr Regular
Amazing review! In your element of course. Nice Motocompacto shoutout 😎 I’m surprised you are interested. Ironically, it’s top speed is actually lesss than the 35 year old motocompo. I think anything over 20mph is classified as a motorcycle for tax reasons.
You had me at stututututu
this video is poetry, it made me cry. I'm buying a gtst in a week.
You can get the 34's now! A friend just imported one, and it's way smaller than Gran Turismo made it feel like 😍
The R32 Skyline is influential everywhere. Also, damn that's one beautiful car.
RCR's best work.
Yesssss! Good morning guys!
Mr. Regular, this made me miss the R32 I had when I was stationed in Japan. Mine was black, but this thing is amazing to see. 🤙😍and my HICAS was disabled as well
This one reminds me why I subbed back when Roman was doing parodies for the intro screen
I come for the car review, I stay for the literiture references and philosophy, and I stay late for the synthesis and unique thoughts on such things. It what makes this channel so marvellous. It's a formula no other channel does.
This is my buddys favorite version, and what I learned how to drive stick on in Japan. It may only have the 2.0 turbo, but it's a solid engine. I had the RB20DET in my 240 and it was the best car I ever owned.
Do the VQ community a solid Bryan and get around to watching Tokyo Drift so you can finally review a god damn Z33. The character talk shall be legendary.
best looking skyline hands down. so clean
Wasn’t expecting a Stavros shoutout, but it was what won me over to the point being made.
drove my 1986 Mustang lx coupe 5.0, 5 speed yesterday and that's a good reminder of what the 80s/90s were like. No options, loud as hell, slow but, hilarious.
I could listen to that turbo all day
Saw you with this car at Rutter's the other night, what a stunning car!
Such a clean looking car... like a 240SX and a Integra Type R with a Fox body rear window. Not overdone with kits, vents, and spoilers
Oh wow, what a way to be surprised on a refreshed youtube page
The dealer I work at is getting some moto compos this month. Can't wait!
Being a car reviewer and still haven't seen Tokyo Drift is just crazy.
So cool of you to let those kids drive the Skyline.
It's just the way the R32s sit that does it for me. Ever since I saw a dark grey GTR fly past our family car when I was a kid.
great one mr regular... definatly gunna try to win that one.... that would be a hell of a bday present haha
We need some motorcycle reviews
16:19 yes they were, R34 GTRs were Paul Walker's main cars in 2F2F and F&F4
"Looking at a rose-tinted world through bare eyes." Damn. That hit hard.
Masterpiece of a review
The Skyline was Paul Walker's hero car in 2 Fast 2 Furious.
when he said "hyundai is never making the vision 74"
I felt that
and it didn't feel good
An incredibly clean GTS-T Type-M? AND it's a 60AE? The GTO and S2K were excellent giveaways but godDAMN is this thing cool!
A nice understated example of that car. Very handsome.
Still got mine. It's the car you always glance back at in the parking lot when walking away.
Another great video mr. Regular I apprectiate a simple review once in a while
I hope I pray!~My shelf is getting full of mugs. It has to happen one of these times! Love your work!
Recently my brother passed away. We used to play the heck out of Gran Turismo on PS1 with a Skyline. I’ve always wanted one because of that game.
“For all the nostalgia, it’s better to leave memories alone than to risk finding out it wasn’t as great as you thought it was.” gd this resonates with me at this point in my life
i literally just bought a r32 gtr in september with 83k kms on it and its mint inside.... pretty much but such a blast to drive
Early with the upload. You sir are doing the lord's work on this Monday Morning. The theory of Negative Capability. Those kids from the gym the other day definitely didn't care which series r32 r33 r34 it didn't matter. All that mattered is they met their hero. A grail as the youth call it.i see your perspective though. To them thet dont know their hero intimately...one kid didn't even want to drive it... so you see the rose colored world through real eyes. But even you said it best.... yeah,its iite now in 2023 (im paraphrasing) .... but it was cool back then. What a privilege we have to have lived in both times. Once again dope review G.🎯💯
