| 1999 R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R vs 2023 Nissan Z Proto Spec // THIS vs THAT |
Get ready for an epic showdown in the latest episode of Hoonigan This vs That! We’re pitting a legendary R34 GT-R against a brand new Z in a drag race. With the Z boasting a 400 hp rating, we know this won’t be a walk in the park. But we’re not ones to back down from a challenge, especially with the R34’s iconic 280 ps rating. And the best part? It’s only two months until the first R34 GT-R turns 25 and becomes legal to import to the US. Don’t miss out on the adrenaline-pumping action!

| Is that a Stagea 260RS out there? |
Next pass, since I won, was his choice. This time he got the leave. Basically no arm drop, both get ready, then I go when he does. This time I was much more ready, and got out on him just about straight away. He missed a shift, and I went 2 for 2. That pass, I turned it up a little as I wasn’t sure how hard I would have to run him down. They wanted to do a third run, this time from a roll. I agreed to the roll race. This takes most of the all wheel drive advantage away. Its all hp and weight.

Third roll race, I also won when he missed a shift. Overall a fun day out playing with cars. Drove the GT-R out and back. Ran it. 91 octane. New vs old, the old wins.
