Question is this the R32 or R34 skyline???

so i found this picture online and set it as my wallpaper. i showed it to my co-worker who also likes the skyline and said "thats an R32." and i said "nah...thats an r34." he gave me some reasons why its the r32 with r34 headlight conversion.

looking from the sides, it does look like the r32 to me but im not 100% sure. does anyone have a rear picture of this?? is it the r32 or the r34??

that is without a doubt a R34. The rear fender flare is a lot wider than a R32. R34 is almost more square than R32. IMO...R34

Does look Photochop. It does look like a R32 with a R34 front. The roof line is similar to the R32, but the rear fender up top near the trunk is smooth like a R34. The R32 is a little more edgy. Kind of hard to decide for me.

yeah i have to agree it looks like an R32 with an R34 front end conversation. the fender flares dont look OEM at all.

i doubt that this pic is photochopped. if you cover the front end with your hand, it would look like the R32.

looking at the lines..it still has R34 lines. The rear is too square to be a R32. Wish I was in Japan and take a picture of my friend's GTR at that same angle and do a compare

Well it has R34 headlights and the body looks like one of an R34 so I would say its an R34. I could be wrong tho.

Nice gap btw

Heres both nonetheless:

The rear fenders look like add on's. And it dose look photochopped. I'd say R32 trying to be a R34.

+1 looks like a widebody kit for an R32 with a R34 front end....could be an R34...who knows with nissans. they swap so many parts these days you never know unless its a S13

The carbon is definitely photoshopped in that pic. The weave is huge and looks quite silly …

windshield up to the roof does look like the R34. this is almost like an Evo 8 with 9 bumper and wheels. although, it should be easier to spot the difference between R32 and R34. im still thinking its the R34.
