Default Non Turbo Skyline applications?

I was wondering if there are any applications or anything for a non turbo skyline? I realize most people have not heard of such a thing but there is. Shock I was when I found out about the non turbo 93 gts skyline my brother bought in japan. I was hoping one day he might import it and let my hands on it. However sadly I know nothing about non turbo skylines, only heard my brother mention them. Please I do not want any critisim since the nissan nissian??(check spelling) people probably made it for na purposes and i am not sure on my brothers belief in na or turbo if anything i might want to know.

My brother could of bought it for a beater car since it did cost him $2,000(I know cars are cheaper there). Plus I think he likes taking the train to work in Japan. He says its faster. I think he wants and R-X7 but only when he comes home to the states. Plus I guess the street racers might mess with him if it was turbo. (NOTE:The street racers in Japan are probably 40 or over and are rich old men)

Na....was he a brother of Ra? If he believes in n/a then why does he want an RX7?

Yes they probably DID make it for na purposes......I think because of the fact that it doesnt have a turbo sort of gives that one away

I should just tell my bro to get an RX-8. Hey nice pic but I think he needs something more concrete go watch Too Fast Too furious (I actually dont know how the title is spelt.). It features the Skyline in this one.(note:Most of all of the cars in this movie are show what happened to peformance )
