400R skyline

[UrbanChaos]

how rare are these cars to purchase? and what price bracket wou;ld you be looking at? and does anyone have some links to specs on them?

[(B1) MR_fanny]

theyre damn rare.....for specs check out the supercar thread in the japan forum

[Kaido_RR]

UrbanChaos, they are very rare at the Nismo Show in Jap, the people looking at the car weren't allowed to touch the car, they had to stand about i would say afar distance back,

and for the specs they are basicly a tuned up GTR by nismo

400R - 400hp i think. Just throw 400R GTR in google, i'm sure quite a lot will pop up.

I think it would be very hard, maybe even impossible to find one to buy, i doubt anyone would actually want to sell one. I don't think many were made at all, and most probably something that will be held onto by those lucky enough to have one.

cheers.

_____________________

Nissan released only 99 400Rs in Feburary 1996. The V-spec version of the R33 GT-R was used as a base for the 400R, to produce a road-going version of the LM and GT racecars of the day. Most parts have been upgraded, but it`s probably more interesting to look at what hasn`t been upgraded, namely the Brake calipers/disks, the gearbox and the Camshafts/valves. The standard 5MT gearbox is suited well enough to the increased horsepower, as are the Brembo brakes, which only neccessitated a brake pad upgrade. The primary goal of the RB-X GT2 engine design was the increased torque whih came about with the 2.8L capacity increase. 47.8kg/m@4400rpm neccessitates the Twin-plate heavy duty chro-moly clutch upgrade, aswell as the Carbon driveshaft. All these additions serve not to break away from the base GT-R design, but to enhance the base GT-R V-Spec model one rank up in the GT Street class. The retail price of the Nismo 400R in 1996 was 12,000,000 yen.

I would gladly give the dude who thinks he can source a 400R 10,000 yen if he can find one for sale... hehehe!

Whats up with these NZ guys thinking that 400Rs are out there...? NOPE.

Fake or not-entirely-legit examples maybe... but the real deal?

[rb26dett]

hey rezz i got something i need clarifying. someone told me that the 400r's engine was not done by nismo, but by reimax. is this true?

i know that u can buy the rb-x engine from reimax via their website (www.reimax.com), but i need to know if the original 400r engine was built by nismo or reimax.

a 400R would be awesome even if you did find one and had the money for it i dont think you would be able to import one under SEVS.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...........

They're quoting "1999" for the dark blue one... also that dark blue one must be the only dark blue one in existence... I'm not so sure about it. Anybody else think it's dodgy?

The "LM blue" one looks the goods, but I've seen that thing on their website for a long time now (must something like 6 months), but I made that remark above referring to how scarce they are now. You just can't go out and find them at an auction.

[justinfox]

I thought I wasn't so into the R33's shape but damn that looks amazing. Do many guys with R33 GT-R's fit this 400's body kit? IE: Many manufacturers out there making copy kits?

[blitzen]

none of the cars sold by Shin at Prospec are dodgy.He is probably about the best in the business at importing cars.Particularly as he uses Zele International and also his close links with Nissan.Plus he's a great guy too.Most down to earth.

I wouldnt say that he is the cheapest around,in fact far from it,but he only imports the best.Rated amongst the top importers alongside the likes of Newera Imports.Miguel at Newera is also a master at getting the best!

Just my 2p's worth

hehehehe.....i cant help but giggle at this:D:D i dunno about gtrs but theres hell of a lot of gts'ts around with it.

[gtr13]

Both cars would definately be the real deal as blitzen has said Shin Inoue is the best will not touch anything less then immaculate and is the man to get very rare GTR's and parts but you do pay for his services ,he used to be the chairman from japans GTR owners club and drives a very nice black R34 v-specII NUR with a heap of mines gear.

What about a Nismo R34 Z-Tune GTR with 600ps from the factory would have to be a more exclusive ride then a 400R wouldn't it?

Spotted one that sold at aucion in England for the equivalent of $168,000 AUD... Heeeooooge amount of dollars,but it IS super exclusive.Think I'd rather have a R34 V Spec,an R32 AND a trackday special R32 for the same money...
