Actually nissan plans to bring back the GTR model of the Skyline in 2007 and sell it world wide.
http://www.freshalloy.com/site/cars/nissan/skyline/r35/concept/home.shtml Right now we will have to go with the GT350 (G35 coupe)

BTW Except for the engine the G35 and the 350Z are completly different cars. Look at them side by side sometime.

I never said they wouldn't, it still won't be an R35 though. :P  A lot is up in the air about it, how it looks, what engine it will have, when it will come out, etc.  Those pictures you posted have been around for a long time and still are very much unofficial despite how professional they look.

first off the next skyline is out it is a sedan version in the us it is actually a lexus but thats not what we are concerned about the next skyline the R-35 2008 model will have an GT-R its like the integra sedan and a type-R if they dont use the R chasis on the 08 sky then they will use a totally new chasis because the Skyline Silvias and Sentras or Fairlady Z all have different chasis in them each one unique to the cars type the concept drawings and pictures all have the GT-R logo on them so the new sky will probably have an r chasis the Sil-Eighty however  is called the nissan Onevia the official name from nissan it is an S-13 front and chasis and a 180sx back end with a sr20det engine in it

^  You sir, are a n00b

the US will most likely recieve the new skyline as an infiniti, and not a lexus.  Lexus is Americas luxury Toyota brand.
It probably will not be an R-chassis car because Nissan has moved on from the RB26DETT engines to the VQ30DETT as seen in their JGTC cars.  it will most likely be a V35 GT-R.

Silvia chassis codes are as follows
S13, RPS13, S14, S15  (these run the SR series engines, eg SR20DET)

Skyline chassis codes from 1989
BNR32, BCNR33 BNR34  (these runthe RB series engine, eg RB26DETT)

Fairlady Z chassis codes
Z31, Z32, Z33

The Sil80 and 1via are totally different
Sil80 is a Siliva front and 180sx back.  these were sold by nissan for a limited time
1via is a 180sx front and Silvia back.  these were never sold by nissan.

Also, please use full stops in your post as i have no idea where ur sentences start or finish.

Lots of misinformation here.

- Sileighties were never produced by Nissan. NEVER. They were made by a Japanese tuning shop called KID'S HEART. Very few exist.

- Hachi roku means eight six in Japanese, which refers to the chassis code, which is AE86. Translating it to "86" or "eight six" or "eightysix" is fine.

- The Blue Skyline was a GTS-t. NOT a GT-R.

- As far as the eightsix not being able to beat a Miata... well, doesnt matter which car is "better," what matters is the person behind the wheel. Both cars are good and have advantages but in the end the driver will make the difference.

- In regards to the Miata's power... did anyone else notice that HE WAS RUNNING ITBs? :P

- To the guys that saw S14 "Silvia's"... they were either rebadged 240SX's, unless they were RHD.

And RHD swaps are NOT easy, you need to do a LOT of work or chop & weld the front half of the car... which is not recommended.

- It costs around $20k to legalize a Skyline for USA street use, assuming you bring it yourself. To buy one from MotoRex or RB Motoring it will run you anywhere from $40k-$100k+, depending on model, year, mileage, mods, etc.

- The next Skyline "GT-R" will be released in the USA under the "Infiniti" brand.

Someone sub Fourth Stage!!!  :o

1) the new "GT-R" will be released in the US and its no hoax... there have been reports from Nissan

2) Sil-Eighties were in fact in production AFTER people had made them with body conversions... one-via's and fifteen-eighties were not ever factory produced... there were only 400 produced by Nissan themselves...

"...in Japan people kept smashing the front ends of their 180SXs when they were drifting... into mountains or whatever. simply put, the S13 Silvia front end was cheaper than a 180SX front so they put the Silvia fronts on as a temporary fix. this caused a craze in Japan and it was basically the look in Japan for young people. Nissan had been observing that many of their 180's have been going around with Silvia fronts, and (for an unknown reason) they built a hybrid and released it in 1994. this hybrid was known as the "SIL-EIGHTY", which is exterior-wise just a PS13 with an S13 front end. changes went further though, with changes to camshafts and the ECU, which gave roughly 16~18Kw more (not sure about how much more torque) than both the Silvia and 180SX. also, the suspension was tweaked for drifting purposes. Genuine Sil-eighty's are snap-tail happy, given too much power thru a corner will result in a drift, maybe a spin if you try too hard... Nissan only made about 400 genuine and documented examples, just about all were snapped up upon their release. now at auctions they apparently go for as much as immaculate R32 skyline GT-Rs"

as the base car.  most often as a 180sx because sil80s are ususally 180sx with a silvia front cut.
