AnthonyK1 - theres a midnight purple R34 N1 for sale on www.carsales.com.au.  

Powerplay in Syd recently had a NUR for sale - nice @$170K. For the $80K you could save on a 99 V Spec you'd have to have too much money to get it.

I called this guy up. It's not an N1. It's been modified using N1 parts but not a genuine N1. The colour is wild but. That alone is worth the mint. The price sometimes does not reflect the performance difference but the rarity of it. This "puple haze" colour is wild and apparently only 50 was release as limited. I wanted this colour when I got my car but they couldn't get it so I settled for black.

Brand new GTRs also varied in the colours you choose. I think when it was first release, the purple was the most expensive, followed by the black, then the yellow then the blue....I think in that order.

If you throw enough money at any GT-R you can make it better than an N1.

But there were only 228 real R32 GT-R N1 Skylines.

There were thousands of plain GT-Rs. The rarity value is what makes it expensive.

I would imagine the Japanese do not want to relinquish their N1s seeing as that they are so prized by collectors and race people.

M-spec for me please. Evo magazine in GB rated it better than the TT 911 AWD they love so much after slagging V-spec's that didn't like their roads. Said it was outpacing it by 20kmh on one crest curve combo and felt like it had more to give with the flash ripple control suspension MMMMMmmmmmmmm

Hi Folks,

May have found one of the 03 GTR V-Specs. Check this out, its actually for sale with only 25 miles on the clock...

Go to http://www.middlehurst.co.uk/ and enter site, select skyline under the approved used cars drop down, and before you a link will appear to a page on the car. Click the link...

This website is the official UK nissan GTR dealer. I wonder if its still available...

Then again, I also wonder if its really a 03 car.

Time to move to UK anyone?

Definitely NOT an official Japanese '03 model.

How can it be one of the two '03 models if it's #53 of an official 80 numbered UK spec cars?

It's an '03 UK plate for sure but it looks like a Japanese '99 Series 1 which has been modified to 'UK spec'. Sure it's got 25km on it... it's spent the last few years under wraps.

The front indicators are still orange and it's not one of the items changed.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
