Click the Hi Res images links then check out the details on these things. That handle is solid CF. Very nice. At 100,000 yen for a briefcase and 12,000 yen for a t-shirt they're expensive but I somehow still want them.

Damn you nissan!

Hopefully I'll have enough luggage space next month to bring some of this back amongst everything else.

I want one of those wallets!

But I have a wallet, and it has carbon fibre on it, but it's just a sticker... and it looks EXACTLY the same as that stuff...

Would be worth getting if it is real CF

On the hi-res image it definately looks to be real CF. Like a small panel between layers of leather.

The gloves look a bit iffy in hi-res but even so it looks like there is a bit of carbon weave sewn in there too.

Well that's what I'm saying, I bought a sheet that LOOKS real, and it looks the same as that... It could go either way :)

I would still get it though, my wallet is mangled with stickers :P

ah yeah... well this has the added benefit of having GTR embossed on the back too. No close ups of that tho unfortunately.

price tag: $350 - $360 + costs like shipping for the wallet depending on how lucky you get with the exchange rate.

yeah I had a look at all this stuff in the flesh in japan. to be honest not much of it did anything for me. except the key ring. I nearly bought one, then remembered I have probably 2 dozen key rings and I only really use 1!

I really prefer the all carbon case like the one they had with the Z-tune. now that was nice!

Any idea on pricing for these?

Yep. They're 8,000 - 10,000 yen (about $80-$100 AUD) a piece depending on the one you want. I have the pricing catalog I will get some pics of it and upload it later.

I bought the second one down for 8,000 yen from Ginza Nissan Gallery. Something you can't tell in the pictures though is how heavy they are. They are all made with solid steel backings and weigh a huge amount for a small keyring which makes you feel a little better about parting with $80 for a keyring. Not much better but anyways...

    • Gucci bags tend to hold their value well, so someone’s definitely going to get a nice find here.
    • @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑
    • I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed    
    • All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?
    • It seems you'd like your Skyline to go to a great home, that can keep it as a beautiful museum piece.  I feel I can provide the perfect place for it, however, I'm not sure I can justify so much money for a Skyline that has only been crashed 3 times. Due to this and market prices, would you be against me buying it for $100.00, with $60 to be paid upfront, and the remaining $40 to be paid annually in equal payments?
