[MrFlex]

just want to know if there is such a thing as a 97 model skyline, limited edition? also do they come with the series 1 wing on the boot?

any help would be great.

thanks.

um their was a 40th aniversary edition in the GTS-T's which i think was later 97/early 98. not sure what the difference was except it had 40th aniversary on the boot ???

[Pva_Glue]

also with seats have signature of "40th aniversary" stitch.

and badging....

the VIN number's the only REAL way to tell... most of the limited edition came with keys that had the 40th/60th anniversary or 100 million sales sign on em etc. Some V Selections and 40th anniversary ones came with gold GT badges. but yeah if you really wanna know then grab the VIN number and decode it.

[T0nyGTSt]

Yeah grab it and tell us what it is.

We'll tell you who's that and bag of chips and who deserves to be bashed SAU style.

i'll try and get the vin number but the thing is i still dont understand why it has a series 1 wing on a 97 model. he reckons a few came out like that but thats the first i've seen of em. also i havent heard of a limited edition skyline neither. i know of the 40th anniversary.

You could probably option the "Series 1 wing" from the factory. There really is no such thing as a "Series 1" wing since both spoilers were options from the start.

You would need the VIN number to do a REVS check anyway so what are you waiting for!

Mine is a 40th anniversay '98. It also came standard with a Momo wheel. I'll get details and pics in a few minutes

[Pandaemonaeon]

Soory about the poor picture quality but our camera at work is poo. First pick is the Steering wheel. I'm pretty damn sure it's standard as it also has Nissan embossed in it. Second pic is the stiched badge on the seat, and thrid is the badge on the rear quarter panel. Chassis Number is ECR33 134519.

The skyline only came out in the purple/blue colour for the 40th anniverary model right? not for the rest. Thats what i think.

[MrFlex]

actually scrap the car above, found a better skyline from this place called "Complete Compliance", thats what it says on the card, or at the shop its called "Auto Fix and Tune".

does anyone know anything about em or had any experience with em?? they r in the NSW suburb of Moorebank.

any info would be great.

thanks.

[Pandaemonaeon]

I've only ever seen 2 40th anniversary models and they were both white.

I actually called these guys yesterday. They are one of the only 3 shops in Sydney to be listed on RAWS database as being able to comply R34's right now. They seemed to be very knowledgable when I spoke to them.

Anyway, the car you mentioned does seem to be a 40th Anniversary edition.
