    whilst performance wise they were both brilliant, interior quality was very sub standard. Dash was made from recycled vending machine cups, switches broke all the time (3 indicator stalks in 5 months) and wind noise just got me down after a while. Add to this the whole 'image' attached to skylines then/now. South-end cruises and macdonalds car park doing doughnuts etc.
    On the track, both of the ones i had were simply stunning, but that was once in a blue moon. As a daily driver, they were neither comfortable or practical for day to day stuff, and every c*ck in a chaved up corsa wanted a race all the time. The other major factor in selling was insurance (4k fully comp, I lived in london at the time).
    Got rid of the last one due to me growing up a bit and needing a more family orientated car, is still thought of fonldy though.

    1st one I had was an R33-Gtr, Imported from japan







    2nd one I had was an R34-Gtr V spec, again jap import (original jap auction photos)







    all of the mods were done to both cars when i brought them in japan. BIG advantage to importing if you want a high spec modded skyline.

    • Nowt wrong with them!! Like the 2nd one How much bhp did you have 500+?

      • The R33 was running at around 480bhp, never rolling road'ed it to find out, but the second one, the R34, I had dyno'd @ 640bhp.

        The R34 was capable of running alot more, but i was more worried about longevity over out right power. A Skyline expert told me that with all the work done on it, then 800+bhp was more than capable out of the engine, but I left it at a reasonable boost level just to make sure it didnt go pop. I was also told it was a NISMO clone, with pretty much exact same spec as the NISMO limited edition, just with slightly better cams and turbo's fitted.

          • That is such a clean, lovely car there RS246, a real credit to you. What power did it make?. And is that an R34 skyline I spy infront of your car?

            Your in Norway then I take it?, I lived in Norway for a year when I was younger, Island call Randoy, Near Stavanger.

            Beautiful country, I am probably going to be going back to stavanger either this year or early next year, cant wait to get back.

                    I didn't paint the wheels, and honestly, I don't care much if they are dark or silver.
                    I did get the whole car re-sprayed though. In the same color as it was.

                    I don't care much for the looks in the meaning that as long as everything is as close as possible to how it rolled off the assembly lines, I am happy (thus the respray).
                    The stuff under the bonnet is what strikes my fancy
