I echo those sentiments- why would you want a skyline when you could have those. i'd take it over the nissan everyday and 2x on sunday.

yeah it's a nice car but sadly that one isn't a real 22B since it's LHD, the intake manifold isn't wrinkle red and the timing belt cover isn't wrinkle red as well and if I remember right the 22B was lighter in color. That is a 2.5RS in BRP with a WRX engine made to look like the 22B. The 22B is one of my favs as well but It'd be a very hard decision for me between a GTR and a 22B. YES the GTR is over rated and the 22B came in limited numbers but I'd be hard for me any to make the decision to choose one over the other.

If you read that thread closer you can see the 22b in someone else's reply. It's a nice RS though,probably a 99,since that was the only year offered with the ver. 5/6 bumper in wrb pearl. The true beast lives in my driveway though! Long live the BEAST!!!!

I absolutly love the 22B! It would be hard cause the R34 is just so agressive looking, but I fell in love the 22b a long time ago so I would have to with one of those. Before I came to Hawaii, a dude was selling one in Florida think it was number 44 out of 400... sooo sweet but way out of my price range. C'est la Vie!!

Ha! That guy is a tool! It's a beautiful RS, but to say he put parts on it so it looks like a 22B is wayyyyyy off. Sheesh. I kept looking through that post but nowhere did I see any flared fenders!

Not only missing the fenders, but it doesn't have the unique 22b front end either.

so made to test U.S. market.
22B Tarmac WRC replica wide body. da beast AHH BOOOOO!!!!!!
22B anyone who owns one probably doesn't drive it. da beast red misted at every oppurtunity
Conclusion buy an R.S. and make your own,or in my case have someone build one for you. I say this because no one I know, has or ever will have a 22B,and if you did you would probably never drive it. Also you would probably pay an arm and a leg for it. Blaze WRX is probably closer to a 22B than my car in looks,but I think my car is closer in terms of performance. Although Blaze WRX did run a 12 sec. 1/4 mile. I don't know what kind of #'s my car will do,but according to everyone who drove or rode in my car confirm that it's fast. I hope someday I will be able to see a 22B in person. As far as Skylines go, I'll take an R33 thank you very much. Although the R32 Skylines are stealth, and I'm all about the sleepers!! Long live the Beast!!!!!
