hi,

cool 'module' Ryan. were the 33's special imports to the US, or were they sold through Nissan [new car] dealerships?. I spend a fair amount of time in the US [latest trip, 6 months last year], but haven't seen a R32, R33 or a 34 on the road.

regards

G'day ryan,

I'm from south eastern Victoria... Nice car, it's even got the steering wheel on the correct side :)

Which kinda answers changi's questions.

Track car only? or are you getting wierd looks for sitting in the wrong seat when you stop at the lights?

  • 4 months later...

but here's a little update since last time

i bought all of my susp arms and links (poweredbymax RUCAS, tension rods, and 7mm tie rod spacers, Cusco front upper a-arms)

some company called "motorex" was importing skylines - they went into receivership

i read all the police reports online regarding all the victims that lost there cars before they got hold of them

far as i know that was the only way you could get one in the usa?

it was a sponsor car

the guy who used to own it wanted to get out of it and offered it to me for an price i just couldn't refuse

you would all kill for how cheap i actually got this car for :cool:

but for the most part this is my track car

i drive it once and a while up the road a bit to get cigs and that's about it

but mos def the girls out here get hyped on it haha :rofl:

you can buy a street registered R33 GTSt for about USD$6500 these days in oz... mind you not many people seem too keen on buying them...

haha i just realised I promised to look into a windshield for you on ziptied. did you sort that out? sorry dude, I moved states since you PM'd me and everything got ballsed up.

haha what's up man!

umm ya hopefully i have coming from japan it should be here next month

but if something happens to it or it never comes

then i would be more than appreciative of your help :P

but ya skylines are suuuuuper rare here

i think there is less than 150 here in the states (registered)

from what i've heard

not too sure about that number because i haven't really checked it out myself

but i've never seen another one on the streets

    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
