I was only referring to the bang for the buck. Skyline is stock rated at 276 but rumored to be actually over 300, Japan factory cars are limited to 276 HP by a "gentleman's agreement" between manufacturers. I do know that with a few simple mods like ECU, intake, exhaust, they start adding up HP in a hurry, and 500- 600HP is easy without cracking open the engine, probably hard to get parts for a Japanese market car though. Just for example, the 90-96 300ZX TT is stock 300HP, but with $1000 of intake, exhaust, and ECU, it has just over 400. I wish the $1500 or so I've spent on my T gave that kind of results.
