Sweet if anyone wants to buy it i have the contact

 

Sweet car.

 

 

I never got to see a real skyline out of nowhere...
saw 1 yesterday at HIN
but this guy was just parked outside
and me and my friend were out by long beach made a u turn and parked.

We talked to the guy and took some pictures... its not often you see this car.

 

Nice car, but for 120k+ I will take a used ferrari, a gallardo, etc.

 

I wouldn't care if this car drove like an F1 car...$120,000 for a car with an interior that rivals an 88 Civic?

I'll take the $120,000 and buy a 911 GT3 over this thing.

 

 

 

I agree with the above posts. What makes the Skyline so expensive. I never understood. Can someone please explain. I realize they are rare, but that along can't justify $120K. On top of that...even with a helicopter engine in there...it can't be worth that much. To me, it looks like a civic with a nice motor. And a motor aint worth $120K. So, why so much $ for a Skyline?

 

$120K...? Um...heck no. I'd ante up a few more $$$ and get an Aston Martin Vantage.

 

Your boy is on crack. 8k for TE37 wheels?

 

DUDE???? wtf i'm not selling the car this is some random guy that we saw on the road and stopped to talk to him.

I just wanted share pictures and info haha...
relax people thats what i heard thats all...

 

I can explain it to you. I guess some of the best things of the skyline gtr are its AWD system and super high potential engine. In stock form, its AWD system, along with its balanced chassis, make the car to have very good handling. Its AWD system is very advanced, even though its root can be dated back almost 20 years ago. Most of the time its in RWD mode, it will shift power to the front whenever necessary (controlled by computer, which get data from different sensors). Not gonna go into too much details, but lets put it this way, even though it weighs about the same as a TL, its handling can rival ferraris, and porsches, if not better. Then its engine, its potential can only be described as limitless, similar to the supra turbo engine. I've heard that, just by upgrading the ECU and some changes to the exhaust can easily bring the car to 400hp. Go further and upgrade its turbo and 1000hp is not a problem at all.

So...yea, gtr is a very good car, but to me it just doesn't worth US $120k, I mean in Japan, it's only about US$50k when new. I wouldn't pay that much even if it's that rare here. But that's just my opinion. To me, US $120k, I would rather get a NSX and convert it into the Type R version, I've seen a NSX-R converions for US$100k, that sounds more like a bargain to me as its' $20k cheaper, and it's as rare as the skyline here, if not more, and I prefer MR, since that's what a sport car should be.

 

Acurazine Rule #32: FLAME FIRST, ASK QUESTIONS LATER.

 

I'm not angry im like haha relax people =P

 

First of all, that Skyline is a very very clean example. Plus, engine bay doesn't look stock AT ALL. And imagine how difficult, not to mention expensive it is to get parts for an R34.

The thing is, how often do you see an R34 GTR on the street, just regular driving? NEVER. I've seen more Diablos, 360s, 355s, Aston Martins, and Murcielagos than I can count on 1 hand with, with 360s and 355s being pretty common. I've seen more R34 GTRs at car shows/HIN than I can count with on both hands, but I've never seen one driving around or just parked on the street. I've seen an R33 GT-S parked in a lot before, plus my next door neighbor had a RHD R32 GTR parked outside in his driveway before, but never an R34.

Does that mean I would spend $120k, even $100k on that Skyline? Hell no. I would buy a clean, stock R34, then mod it to my liking. But me, if I were a multi-billionaire, I would of course have Ferraris, Porsches and Lambos in my person multi-level indoor parking garage, but I would also import a 4-door ITR, NSX-R, EK CTR and FD CTR, Accord Type-R, 98+ spec MR2 plus an R34 for good measure just to get that WTF effect when I actually drive one around.

^No wait, make that 2 of each.... as the shoeheads say, one to rock and one to stock.

 

This guy is some record producer, I didn't get his name my friend who stopped has his contact, so i needed i can but him, but man he has 3 cars skylines...

This kid probably 17 who had a freaking 5 series was like ill offer you 100k... hes like hell no, then hes like ill offer you my car the guys like nah i don't need another car haha..

 

hotness.. what are the two canisters w/ filters coming out of them beside the turbo inlet/intake? Also- is the oil filter located at the top stock or does he have a dry sump setup or something?

 

Nice car, but not at all worth $120K.

 

SKYLINE R34!!!!!!!

 

I 100% agree with you on everything you said.......especially the last part....owning 2 of each of those cars.....

 

very clean + tomei engine

 

Those two canisters are oil catch cans. Only seen them on F/I cars. See: http://www.aaronreedbaker.com/oil.html

Now, for the relocated oil filter, I don't know if its dry sump or not. Not stock for sure. Probably has an oil cooler, then he had to relocate the oil filter elsewhere to make room for the oil cooler. Not sure where the oil filter is on a stock Skyline, cause I've never worked on one before....

 

That's what i figured- thanks

 

$120,000 my ass. I can get a blue GT-R34 for $35,000 right now, just gotta drive 3 hours to go get it

 

My location is also ny so its more rare than your locations dude to horrible roads and regulations lol...
if i recalled it was more to convert it in ny than anywhere else back then...

 

That car is nice, not 120k nice though. I'd get a Z06, turbo it and buy a TL-S as a daily driver with that money. A local guy use to come out with an R33 that was amazing.

 

It's probably more of a pain in the ass to re-register / make legal those cars every year than what it's worth to have them

 

id take a supra twin turbo 700+ HP over it

 

usually Supra with 700+HP got only one turbo...

 

I don't know ... I'd rather get the blue one than a traditional white.

Guess I won't spend my US$120k then ...

(just like a Honda commercial in Canada ... guy's sitting in a F1 car ... asks the dealer, "how much?" ... answer: $5 million. guy "does it come in blue?" ... answer: "No". guy looks up at an Accord nearby -- "how about that one?" ... answer: "Yes". ... I guess you have to watch the commercial for it to be remotely funny. )

 

exactly what i was thinking.

 

no higher than $38K for that

 

120k for that?!?!?! NO WAY!!!
There are plenty of better cars to spend that kind of coin on.

 

I don't know i just found it funny that this rich spoiled kid with a 5 series was like ill offer you 100k...
and then he gets rejected and offers his car. haha..
wtf spoiled kids going aorund selling off their car probably his parents car.

The kid was not much older than 18

 

Saw that car at Englishtown last month, my boy John has an R33 GT-R Spec V that is pushing 600hp right now and with his next tune should be over 700hp. He was selling his for 75K. I dont feel like posting pics just check the thread

Cost more than that to import them

 

I'd take the $120K and invest it.

 

yikes!
