That Mirage must have given a crushing blow to that Skyline driver's ego. He is one of those people that gave that car's model name a whole new or more literal meaning. 
Great thinking installing Quaif diff in the front and LSD for the rear.

That's a quick car. The 4G in a mirage has been done many times. It would've been nice if he dropped the motor in the 3dr model, much lighter car.
However, I don't think the race with the Skyline is a big deal. The R33 driver probably didn't anticipate a race and it looked like he didn't even gun the throttle. Besides, when the camera panned to the front of the car, traffic was approaching.
It would've been real nice if they raced again when the traffic cleared up. I'm sure the R33 would've been more than happy to try again but I think the Mirage owner wouldn't include their defeat on video
