I think it's the fact that the R32-34 Skylines can be modified to be excellent performers relatively easily, and they can be made to excel in many different forms of motorsport. An example of this is the Signal Auto R34

runs 8.9 second 1/4's on Yokohama Advans, and runs near 1 minute-flat lap times at Tsukuba.
Also, each generation of Skyline represents(ed) the technological achievements of the Japanese automotive industry at the time...it's pretty impressive to think that in 1989 you could by a car with electronically controlled/biased AWD, "Super HICAS" 4 wheel steering, and a TT inline 6, among many other things. They were all relatively advanced in comparison to other cars on the market (especially the R32 when it came out) They are automotive technology at it's finest.
