The legend continues of Impreza and Skyline rivalry. The WRX and R34 going head to head for top speed racing is very interesting. Officially, they're called Subaru Impreza WRX  and Nissan Skyline R34. The Nissan Skyline is known for being a power house, but 1300 horsepower is insane.  The WRX features a 600 hp engine but in a smaller car.  A very good battle indeed, even though it looks horribly unbalanced.

The battle between JDM rights to the fastest sedan is between Skyline, Impreza, and Lancer. These sport sedands with major power have caught the eye of sports car markets worldwide. The battle continues with multiple online videos of track and street racing content. It will never end. Which one is better? You decide. The videos below show similar top speed runs of the two vehicles.

The Subaru Impreza WRX is a vehicle rich in rally history. Winning several consecutive victories, Subaru has dominated the rally scene with the Impreza chassis. World reknown and undoubtedly the most popular rally car ever, the Suburu Impreza WRX can be purchased in USA for under $10,000 and modified to perform with the likes of exotic sports cars for an additional $10k. For $20,000 you can rocket yourself from 0-60 mph in less than four seconds. 

The Nissan Skyline has a rich history in street racing. The most famous street racing vehicle in the world, used in movies and racer's lore for over a decade. USA performance enthusiasts dream of owning a Nissan Skyline whether it's the base model or the performance R34. There is a new version of Skyline that has been released to the USA market but true enthusiasts of Nissan claim it is garbage. They just don't build them like they used to! Let's check out the footage! Post your comments below!
