I've read this along time ago but forgot about it til it was brought up on another forum, so i thought i would share. It's a nissan prototype car that test many of the new tech stuff for nissan in the 80's. Things to come off this car is ATESSA (awd for skyline), HICAS, twin turbo powerplants and many design's that got spawned off to other car's. Read the link there to learn about it, it's pretty interesting.
