Bottom line is if you respect a VL Turbo for what it is you deserve to own 1,If not and you own A VL saying Skyline GTR will flogg it etc well go buy a Skyline join up on a Skyline forum because this forum is only VL Turbo discussion forum simple.
I know this comment is pretty old, but I'll reply to it anyway.
I think the only reason why people compare VLs to Skylines, is because they share the same engine or use a engine from the same family.
It doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out, that a VL Turbo compared to a GTR, is a stupid comparison.
A Twin Turbo 4WD sports coupe compared to a single Turbo RWD sedan? About all they share in common, is the engine's origin and number of cylinders.
I mean of course out of the box, the GTR is a way better performance car, then a VL Turbo. Just like a Clubsport is compared to a Pintara.
R31s and VLs, is a much fairer comparsion in my book.
