Default S4 engine vs. nissan skyline

is the new 2.7 twin turbo 5 valve motor better than than the 2.6 4valve twin turbo nissan skyline's.<p>I know you can increase horsepower on the skyline, from 276 to 500 very easily. Does the S4 motor have the same potentials..<p>thanks,

Default Buy a Skyline

If that small of a difference in the engine is important to you. The S4 engine is a great engine and can easily reach 400hp, in fact the factory may release a 400hp version in Europe called the RS4. However, the engine in the Skyline is probably slightly better than the S4 engine. It'll cost you another $20K to get it though.<p>Todd W

Default Get the Skyline (link enclosed)

This company has been granted the ability to import Skylines legally. Into the USA that is.

Default 1100 hp Skyline by APEX Motorsports in Feb 99 issue of Sport Compact Car.

Running at a conservative 28lbs of boost and in the magazine it states that the engine is capable of running at 41 lbs with "normal engine wear" Now that's crazy - Yeah!

Sweet website, Sweet car (for up to $50,000), but no way I'd buy an $85,000 Nissan
