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. B);)

100% agree Gareth, but just not very appealing in the first instance :lol:

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. ;)

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 :)

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. B)

 

Love the Skyline Ian. ;)
