The 15 year rule is a Federal law. Applies to any passenger car originally sold outside the US and Canada.
Skylines started to be manufactured sometime in the 60's, but didn't get really good until the 80's. They started with a 2L, then a 2.5, and then a 2.6L inline sixes. Earlier models has RWD, later ones AWD. Single or twin turbo. Often punched out to 2.8L in tuner cars and racing to keep up with the 3.0L Supra's.
Really, the Skyline and the Supra are the Corvette vs. Viper of Japan. The car is overly hyped here only because we never got it. It would be the same way if the Supra wasn't sold here. Gained popularity with the Gran Turismo series of games, and went from there.
IMO, overhyped. I would still prefer a Supra.
