the reasons people who own rice rockets, mainly asians, talk about this car is because this car is the pride and joy of asian racing. ricers talk about skylines because they know that they will never ever own one, and the fucking riced civics are just a pathetic imitation that'll amount to nothing.
its just like americans love their old powerhouse V8's of the old days, and the camaros, vettes, vipers, and mustangs of the generation. we take pride in out cars, just as they take pride in theirs. you should call it crap because a certain culture takes pride in it.
BTW, certain skylines are street legal in japan. but this one probably isnt, nor was it designed to be. it probably runs on an octane of fuel that no one could bye in the US, it probably idles like shit, and gets shitty gas milage so nobody would ever want to make one street legal. would you drive a lambo in the city, probably not.
