Good evening All,

As of the Saturday just gone, I went to Japcar to visit Dennis and picked my new car up!

Dennis was very helpful, and so far after a Christmas Hills run and many grins on my face (boosting is quite a lot of fun coming from an Integra GSI), I am in love.

1999 Nissan Skyline R33 GTR

63,000 km.

Mechanical inspection prior to purchase came up with the only problem being a leaking water pump, so that was fixed along with the timing belt whilst the rocket cover was off.

I am the first Australian owner and it is resprayed in Burgundy (no accidents caused the respray but it is looking very fresh when polished).

Pictures will come up when I get the chance, considering I'm either at work or unwilling to leave the driver's seat!

If anyone from the Templestowe area wants to have a meet and greet, I'd be more than happy to learn more about the forced induction platform (coming from N/A)!

Congratulations on the acquisition.

Tried to get it on St Patrick's Day but had to wait a bit eh?

Any history/logs 'n auction papers?

Checked on VINs fasted here on SAU?

Going to sleep in it on 1st night? hehe...

Yes, look forward to the pics.

One could say St Patty's day was interesting!

No history/log book, but I was given the original auction papers, not a photocopy which was good.

VINS were definately checked before on one of the stickys on this forum.

Unfortunately I spent more time partying this weekend rather than driving (I know, shame on me). But in due course :blink:
