It's got a new front lip, but not a GTR one. Here's a pic of mine and moondog's cars side by side. Moon's is the silver one and is totally stock bodywise. Agreed R34 wheels would look awesome on an R33 but I'm happy with mine and Moon's just bought a set of Advanti Tempest wheels to be put on his on Saturday.

your car has still retained the stock body from what i can see but why not get the gtr front bumper and some gtr badges you might be able to fool alot of people.

Mine's got side skirts and a different front lip. The reason why I don't have a GTR badge and front is that it's not a GTR and I'm not the sort of person who makes my car out to be what it's not. Enough people already think it's a GTR anyway. I don't want anymore.

oh well it still look's pretty nice and i can't really see sideskirt's but doessn't really matter anyway if you want a bodykit for your car go to http://www.takakaira.com/aerokits/ae...enu.php3?cat=4 i guarantee you'll like it:smoker2:

Hey Evo,

I can take your R34. "Boy, I think I just bit off a little more than I can chew." Did I say that out loud?

Are you going to amymore events this year? Were you at the G-Force shootout?

Evomaniac · #52 09-24-2002, 06:17 PM

when i go back to the u.k. yeah (i'm in the u.s.) and i do have a skyline here registered and everything well getting back to the reply, now i will probably go to some dyno event's but i sure can't wait for the boxhill meeting. that's the event everyone's waiting for including me i mean we all gather and just party and go on a road trip that's pretty much what our meeting's are based on including the food yeah it's a necessity to all of us you are interested in the gtr r34 skyline right well it was sold already for 36,000.it was a great deal i would've took it of the guy's hand's but guess what i already have 2 skyline's a 400r from prospec you know who it is right this is the one i have in the us and the other from prospec also i got it for about 45,000 not bad huh considering it is a r34 n1 version yeah the one with all the carbon goodies but mine didn't come with all of it mine came with carbon fiber grill,carbon fiber mirrors,carbon fiber hood which i got didn't come with it ,rear spoiler,carbon fiber sideskirt's i bought that too, and the carbon fiber rear diffuser and carbon fiber underspoiler tray from taitec jgtc a unknown company. just look at this gtr at http://www.cineaction.co.jp/japanese...051_3.jpg&tg=1 i suggest you work your ass off for it if you want it cause it'll cost you a arm and leg.:smoker2:

SkylineUSA · #53 09-25-2002, 12:31 AM

Nice cars Evo.

I would like to go to Boxhill with you guys. Which county is that in?

I did not follow about the 36k R34? You have two right, and the blue one in the pic is the one for sale? There were two R34s just like that one at the G-Force shootout, very nice. I might paint mine that color. We will see?

Evomaniac · #54 09-26-2002, 07:42 PM

boxhill is in the same country you live in and go to gtr.co.uk to find out more since right now i'm busy and can't go into detail's but the car in the pic's is the one for sale and there is also a m-spec for sale for a rough 50,000 if anyone is interested in it.

JojoSteez · #55 10-01-2002, 05:26 PM

ok, most of that is BS. I live in japan and own a skyline and that's not true. R32s are not more expensive. I have seen r32 skylines for 1-2 g's. I got my skyline for 5 g's, 95 gts. now gtr's on the other hand are a lot more expensive. as for all the importing stuff, i;m not that sure on, but i have been researching for a while and the only place that can be done legally is motorex. but i dunno.

MrSky · #56 10-01-2002, 08:53 PM

Hey JoJo did you happen to realize trhey are in europe and probably giving prices in pounds or whatever? Even if it us dollars the cost to legalize them there is hugely expensive just as is in the usa.

Just dont be so quick to judge if you dont know the whole story

ok, first of all, I was talking about what the guy said who started this thread. He says in his post that he is talking about japan. I know it is expensive to legalize the car in USA, I have looked into it already. I was not talking about that anyway. The guy that made the thread was talking about just buying them in japan and i corrected him. So my point is how bout you dont be so quick to judge if you don't know the whole story!

SkylineUSA · #59 10-08-2002, 11:50 AM

Yep, now I know first hand about Skyline Vs Mustang, since I have both

:bandit: first of all gtr_2000 the prices you claim are all of i kno this because i live in japan and im going to buy a skyline import it to the states for free and sell it for profit becasue im going to buy a real car. Somethin with a 350ci or bigger. Im not dissin you hommy. Im in the navy stationed in japan. And theres i think about 7-10 gtrs on base ranging from the 32 -34. And they dont cost $30k for a 32.Its more like $10k for a 32 and $35k for a 34. And they are selling the skylines in the states. But its called the Infinity g-35 and if you dont believe me go to the nisan website for both the states and japan. And youll see. But now its a luxure car. But i think in 2004 a r35 will come out in japan but i dont know in the states. I think its a just a concept car right now. Well later. Oh also got to www.j-garage.com and youll see how much it cost for a r33 gtt. He sells them and imports them for you.:smoka:
