Imo the skyline would be faster but take them to a track.

Depends how much boooooost is running in them bro.
 :it comes down to mods to the vehicles. My choice out of the 2 would be the MR2 ... yeah it's a tad heavy in the rear ... and very skatey in the wet .... but the Toyota motor is a strong one ... and much better built vehicle. There's probably bugger all in it though.

My first car was an R32 GTS-T M Spec, absolutely loved it.
I'd say the R32, but like everyone else has said, drag and track will settle it. |

So the Skylines a 16 year old 2 litre? My money would be on the '98 MR2 turbo.

Nothin to do with it being a ford forum.
But how are you spose to pick the winner between 2 second hand cars,maybe modded or not, its a silly question that only a run down a drag strip will settle. Too much internet racing....... |
