Nissan Skyline, Not all GTR's -
A lot of mostly younger car fans who are in to JDM cars are absorbed by the 90's GTR cult following we see everywhere today, but I wanna use this thread to show you some awesome non-GTR Skylines of all ages that you might not know about!

Prince Skyline - 1957 - 1960
Very 50's aesthetics, even the car is black and white, bit of a boat but a Japanese equivalent of the american tanks of the time it very much is, like it or not, deserves respect for starting that Skyline name!

Prince Skyline Sport Coupe - 1961 - 1964
Odd, experimental 60's design for sure, not my cup of tea but it sure is funky that's guaranteed!

Prince Skyline GT-B - 1964 - 1967
This is one of the coolest 1960's Japanese cars imho, looks absolutely awesome, can definitely see where the first GTR (Hakosuka) got its design from a few years later!

Nissan Skyline C210 - 1975 -1978
Jumping way ahead past the 2 GTR's of 68 through to 74 we find the most forgotten and underrated of any mid-GTR-era skyline, the C210, I dont even have to say anything just look at it!

Nissan Skyline HR30/DR30 - 1981 - 1985
(excuse my obvious bias here
) Almost equally underrated are the HR30 and DR30 Skylines, again neither got GTR variants and thus are forgotten or pushed aside, the DR30 being slightly more known for its iconic door sticker

Nissan Skyline HR31 - 1986 - 1990
Much like the R30's the R31 family had a many different appearances of itself, most known as the GTS-R, made more well known in recent times due to its appearance in more videogames as of recent times, some deserved attention!

Various 90's Skylines - R32-33-34 - 1989 - 2002
Everyone knows the GTR versions of these cars and are very familiar with their looks and history already, so I'll just show some very cool non-GTR 90's Skylines! (all sedans tbh lmao)

And to end off, a pretty neat image showing every generation (including R35, which, while not classed as a skyline, might as well be lol)
GTR or not, it's an awesome history chain of cars, and all are equally admirable! even if you think your overrated R33 is underrated SMH
