Nah, the guy imported the car himself, had nothing to do with Nissan. After frieght costs, compliance, and registration etc, it cost him AU$170,000. Back in this article, the car was pretty much stock. they got it down the 1/4 mile in 12.7seconds @ 178km/h, which beat the Monaros 13.9seconds @ 168km/h. On paper, the GTR was claimed to have 206kw, when they put it on the dyno it came up with 214rwkw. Funny that the Monaro is claimed to have 300kw, and when they put it on the dyno it only produced 230kw. And yeah, i would love to see the GTR's racing against the supercars again, but somehow i dont think that its gonna happen

Nissan Skyline GT-R V-SPEC II N1 The white GTR is in the April 2002 edition of WHEELS Magazine, in which they put it up against a 300kw HSV Monaro GTS. Quite an interesting article to read actually. Spose i could quote some parts of it and post some of the results if anybody is interested.

Was just on the news a few minutes ago: Around Adelaide and North Adelaide 2 guys have been on a rampage, vandalising late model Hyundai Excels. Juming on roofs and bonnets, slashing tyres, keying the paintwork, etc. They have done around 15 cars over the past couple of nights. Police recommended Excel owners dont leave their cars out on the street at night, and if possible to park them in garages. I know this is a Skyline forum, but some of us may have second cars, or girlfriends or family who own an Excel. Just though I would let you guys know.
