A community portal about Nissan Skyline GT-R with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: The Nissan Skyline GT-R is an iconic Japanese sports coupe in the Nissan Skyline range. Dubbed "Godzilla" by Wheels magazine in Australia when released there in 1989, it was rated by many motoring magazines, including the well-respected Wheels, as providing performance and handling equal or superior to that of European icons like the Porsche 911 and the Ferrari Testarossa, at a considerably lower price. The Skyline's home-market competitors have included the Honda NSX, Toyota Supra, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, Subaru Impreza WRX STi, and Mazda RX-7.
Nissan, together with Autech Japan and NIMSO have announced that they will be displaying a total of nine models equipped with the latest custom and after-market parts at Japan's equivalent of the U.S. SEMA Show and Europe's Essen Motor Show in Germany, the Tokyo Auto Salon to be held from January 15-17, 2010 at the Makuhari Messe. Nissan's range of standard road cars stylized with the latest factory aero body-kits will include the Roox...
This isn't the first time we've seen a custom-made Nissan GT-R Station Wagon - check out this gem with the new R35 GT-R front-end and the M35 Stagea body- but it's certainly one of the weirdest creations put together yet. Made by Japan's Roadster Garage, which we first heard about with the MX-5 / Miata-based Toyota 2000GT speedster and the Nissan 240Z-based Toyota 2000GT Coupe replicas, the car is called the Hakoste.It combines the body of a...
Following in the footsteps of Infiniti and its facelifted 2010MY G37 Sedan and Coupe models, Nissan has updated the Japanese market versions of the car that is sold under the Skyline nameplate. Both the Skyline Sedan and Coupe models receive a number of changes including an updated exterior for the Sedan and a refined interior, enhanced navigation system and new air conditioning for both body configurations.In particular, the Skyline Sedan...

Nissan Juke teaser - Click above for high-res image
If you thought Nissan was joking with its barmy Qazana at last year's Geneva Motor Show, think again. The same basic form that had us likening the concept crossover to something French or a vehicle "reverse-engineered from a Paris-Dakar rally special," is evident in this first teaser shot of what Nissan is now...
Nissan has given the first hint of what its new small crossover, the Juke will look like. While the first publicity shot artfully conceals the lower half of the Juke's bodywork, it's clear that the new car has an organic, flowing shape. Related StoriesNearly 2m cars registered in 2009

The 2010 Nissan Altima Hybrid is definitely a step up from its previous incarnations. I test drove this vehicle this past week across Southern California as part of my 2010 hybrid challenge. In a quest to see which 2010 hybrid model offers the best bang for the buck, I drove the Altima Hybrid 600 miles [...]
FRANKLIN, Tenn., Jan. 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nissan North America, Inc. (NNA) today announced an agreement with Lance Armstrong, seven-time winner of the Tour de France and founder of the LIVESTRONG Charitable Foundation, to sponsor his new Team RadioShack pro cycling team. The multi-year partnership includes the use of a variety of Nissan products as the official vehicle of the team.
For those who have a flair for all that is four-wheeled, the Nissan GT-R R35 from Japan's Original Runduce would make your obsession much closer to the truth. The full carbon-fiber bodied GT-R will come with an overly aggressive aero kit bundling...
Following the same path as the Kia Borrego, Nissan will send its Quest minivan on a vacation for the 2010 model year. The Quest will likely return to the Nissan lineup in about a year, but will take a short hiatus as Nissan shifts the minivan’s production from the U.S. to Japan.
The Nissan Quest [...]
The Quest minivans from Nissan are living on borrowed time, or at least, the 2010 models have been canned and production has been stopped. A new version will replace it in 2012 or 2013, but until then, the 2009 edition is the only one available.

My favorites (in no particular order) would be:
AMC 199/232/258/4.0L/ VAM 282
Toyota 2JZ-GTTE
Nissan RB
Nissan L series
Chrysler /6
Hudson Twin H Power
Pontiac OHC 6
Nissan Skyline GTR "Hakosuka" L6
Of all of those, my favorite would have to be the AMC. It was the last 1960's pushrod engine design used by an American manufacturer when it was retired, outliving the corporation that produced it by over 15 years. It even lasted to a later date...

2008 Nissan Titan - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you want to be a full-line automaker here in the United States, your dealership lots must be stocked with fullsize pickup trucks. Apparently, despite meager sales of its current Titan pickup, Nissan is committed to doing battle on a level playing field with Ford, General Motors, Chrysler and Toyota. That means remaining in the truck business here in our...

If you're in the market for a Nissan minivan you'd better hurry and natch up one of the last of the 2009 models as a 2010 model is never going to happen. Automobile reports that the 2010 Quest will never arrive in the U.S. as Nissan ends production of the people hauler until the next generation model arrives in a year or two.
The Quest was reportedly at the wrong end of a numbers game: Nissan needed capacity...
