Firstly let me just say that this is an awesome car worth every cent of the asking price. The work carried out and mods are top notch.

I do have one question....I've read a lot of articles on this car as I have been in the skyline game for a fair while now and it has appeared in many a magazine. In one such article I'm pretty sure that I read this car was a nuts and bolts rebuild using only genuine GTR parts but using a gtst chassis...can anyone confirm or deny this?

it's a damn nice car. I dunno if I personally would pay $120K for it, but I don't doubt that they would have spent more than that building it. as for it being "re vinned as a GTR" not possible. it's a GTS. I can't be "re-vinned" there is no such thing.

hmmm there are alot of cars u can get for 120k

think the gold top secret went for less that was years ago and that was genuine GTR etc...

my 2cents

The gold R33 was not an actual Top Secret demo car - And was sold for mid $90k around 4 years ago from memory.

It has been sold again since as most people know, thought for around half the price.

Your correct though - $120k buys you a LOT of car these days.

funny enough theres alot of "mystery" about that car, which is very political.

i can say i would spend 120k on a non genuine, dont care how much is spend

alot of "clean " mods should raise the price on a quality car but there is a limit

this quote is off their webpage

Q: What are the bits and pieces you put in this car?


A: Take one 1997 V Spec GT-R completely strip, take one 1993 GT-R race car and remove it's engine, coolers etc. Take one 1994 GTS4 completely strip. Mix them all together and bake for 620 hours.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
