My name is Tim Bowles. It's always been my dream to race cars. I currently live in Okinawa, Japan. I really admire everything you and your friends have done to race Skylines in the US. I hope to import my R34 as a permanent race car in the US just like you did. Please contact me via email at the below address and let me know your thoughts.

Dont forget - the smallest displacement motor. 2568 cc. The Volvos were 2580, but I dont think we will see them this year. I think the next smallest motor is about a liter bigger.

Awesome car!! I will gladly support, having owned a SKYLINE while stationed at Camp Zama, Japan in the late 80's. I always wondered when this car would make it to the states. Good luck to you.
