Rock_Steady Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) OOOOOo baby! Just look at that whale tail boomer of an exhaust. looks good. My Nissan Almera had exactly the same steering wheel. Shame it didn't have the same engine. Edited September 28, 2015 by Rock_Steady Quote
Ian Posted December 10, 2015 Author Posted December 10, 2015 Yup. It's at the docks awaiting clearance Quote
coldel Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 Lovely car! Knew you would all come around to R33s in the end 😉 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
Ian Posted December 23, 2015 Author Posted December 23, 2015 Car is now in the country and at the GTR shop looking like a mid january pick up now though I've already bought a few bits and pieces ready for its arrival 2 Quote
chirag1988 Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 No doubt they're cracking cars, but I just can't help but feel the interior looking very tired and bland 1 Quote
BobbyZ Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 The interiors are a bit poo. I want to get an R32 one day, but only when I can afford to do loads of upgrades, including retrimming the interior 1 Quote
GMballistic Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 No doubt they're cracking cars, but I just can't help but feel the interior looking very tired and bland I think you do need to remember though where these cars are coming from and by that I mean the era. R32 ~ 1989-1994 R33 ~ 1995-1998 R34 ~ 1999-2002? Nothing a good re-trim can't bring right up to date. 2 Quote

GMballistic Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 100% agree Gareth, but just not very appealing in the first instance That's true. I'd love one but tbh nowadays I'd prefer to get myself into a "newage" type car if I can. Something 2010 or newer at least. We will see though as a good performance car is a good performance car regardless of the year it was made imo. Quote
Ian Posted December 23, 2015 Author Posted December 23, 2015 I forgot how amazing a 350z interior is 3 Quote
mouthwash Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 Can I have it? It is Christmas after all. Quote
FiddyZed Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 This is stunning - Cracking colour! Bet you can't wait to pick it up? I know there's endless threads on here somewhere about imports etc etc but buying through the GTR - am I right in thinking you pay them the cost of the car and they sort the rest out? I love my 350z but would love an R33/R34 in the forseeable future! Quote
Ian Posted December 24, 2015 Author Posted December 24, 2015 Can I have it? It is Christmas after all. Sure, Will cost you though This is stunning - Cracking colour! Bet you can't wait to pick it up? I know there's endless threads on here somewhere about imports etc etc but buying through the GTR - am I right in thinking you pay them the cost of the car and they sort the rest out? I love my 350z but would love an R33/R34 in the forseeable future! I can't wait to pick it up now but its looking like Mid January Importing depends on the importer. JM-Imports was a 75% deposit and then pay the rest once it lands GTR Shop was pay it all up front and nothing else to pay Both sort everything else out for you from sourcing the car to registering and MOTing the car once it arrives Quote
Ian Posted February 9, 2016 Author Posted February 9, 2016 So its arrived Few issues with it though Triple plate clutch absolutley sucks Speedo is still in KMH so im having to work out my speeds Drivers side window is tempremental to say the least headlights are crap Sounds amazing though and pretty much spits flame on demand 5 Quote
BobbyZ Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 spits flame on demand Pretty much all anyone could need in a car, surely?! Nice motor 1 Quote
GMballistic Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Early Jap cars have always had sh*t headlights imo. My old 96 Impreza was awful to drive at night so switched the bulbs to "Osram Nightbreaker" bulbs and it was greatly improved, ...even my old EP3 (built I think in the UK though) had fairly rubbish lights until the HIDs were retro fitted that is. Love the Skyline Ian. Quote
Ian Posted February 9, 2016 Author Posted February 9, 2016 Yeah my Scooby headlights are crap aswell I really want a set of Xenon headlights but at around £1500 I'm gonna be wanting them for a while Quote
Richf Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 R33 xenons are like hens teeth as well , decent bulbs and wiring can help as can the headlight wiring mod http://www.skyline-owners-club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5443 MP is the best colour imo, car looks great , i still find myself lusting after another Skyline Quote
Jetpilot Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Great colour and awesome wheels, really nice combo imho Quote
