Here it is, I've never seen one so I thought i'd make one. This is where all of you pinkbikers can discuss street tuners. I'll start, What would you rather have an R32 or an MKIV?

mkiv what?

mkiv r32? mk4 golf? passat? gti?

I would take a MKIV R32 over and MKV R32. I more of a manual sorta guy. Launch control is kinda sweet, defending arguement.

However I would take a MKV GTI over a MKIV GTI. 2.0T FTW.

tuner question- personal preferences: totally slammed visual effect only sorta car, or heavily track tuned?

slammed and clean:

tracked and clean:

Slammed and clean looks a lot more street acceptable.

You mean R32, right? Supras and Skylines are my favourites EDIT: Also, I'm pretty sure the picture you posted of the Skyline is an R34, not 32

My friend's G35 is slammed way better than any of those cars you posted Draco. His doesn't have wheels on the driver's side after he was sucked into a wall.

In my opinion G35's are to luxury to tune out, like there already made fairly fast and they have all this factory garbage in them that it would take alot of time and a deep wallet to get one competing with some decent tuners.

You have a lot to learn then. The G35 is built on the same platform as a Nissan 350z. Therefore, almost every performance part that fits on a 350z also fits on a G35. The G35 is also the same as the newer Nissan Skyline cars that are produced overseas. I think I might start a project car out of a coupe.

Audi S4s are luxury cars, yet they can still haul.
Mercedes SL65, luxury but huge engine thrown in. Just because it's luxury doesn't mean anything.

There nice cars all im sayin is I wouldnt have any reason to tune them. Like the G35 for example 12 way power adjusted seats, an 11 speaker sound system with 10 inch woofers on the doors, a rear veiw monitor like seriously a 98 supra would come with 2 woofers in the back one of em busted and a cassette player.

Some people have the money and the will to do it.
Brabus creates insane Mercedes-Benz's and Gemballa takes already fast Porsche's to another level.
