If this were my car, i would pay to have my japanese history found and sent to me. (Auction slip wh where applicable and De-Reg Cert). This will give you piece of mind and proof that the car is as you know it to be. A $200 investment would be well worth your time here.

*There's a couple of threads on this, i know because i asked how it can be done.

Cars imported pre-2004 have bugger-all documentation available- trust me, I've tried everything- this I believe was before that time

Ah my bad there... maybe track down the importer/compliancer? I managed it for a 33GTR i was looking to buy earlier this year. The gentlemen was pretty unhelpful, but maybe you'll have better luck.

If the company still exists - they seem to disappear and re appear with new names. Can't seem to trust kms on most cars - im just going on condition these days

Digging up an old thread.

This is my car now... well my wife's. Two pre-purchase inspections later and long talk with my mechanic. Can confirm the kms are legit and car is in pristine condition. :)

Congrats on the purchase. Very clean and super low mileage. 

Are you able to share the circa price? Can PM if you prefer. 

I'm always a bit curious on how our Skyline's are going in terms of value.

Paid exactly what i recommended two years ago. 70k. emoji16.pngemoji7.png

 

 

My R33 GTR has around 27K and I wouldn't settle for anything less than $60K so I think your price is very fair.

Well done @Steve85!! 

Please post up some fresh pics. Maybe in a build thread?

 

Yes, i think so. Although to be honest, zero mods will be taking place. But i'm sure everyone would be keen to see a stock R33 GTR. :D

Yep. I thought it was a good deal. This car is amazingly clean, no dints, no rust, no modifications. It's exactly how the factory built it (almost, more to come on that).

Awesome. I have a feeling it won’t remain stock for long! ?

Not at all. The plan is specifically to keep it stock. [emoji16]
I've got the LM which has zero stock components so no need really.
bubble wrap it, it'll be $100k in a few years
Sort of the plan. We'll see how it goes, bur intend on keeping it clean and modification free. There can't be many left in that state. [emoji16]

Ah fair enough.

call me nuts but my R34 GTR is stock except for wheels and I love it as is. There’s something about the factory stock tune that is an experience in itself!

With hi performance cars, stock is best. All the research and development is done for you. I had a Charger built to standard E49 specs and the thing idled off the key  without using choke and purred all day and no overheating problems. There may have been faster cars, but they were cops to drive.

Maybe don't read about my LM then... lol 
This car and that one are opposite ends of the GTR spectrum *(well, it was before 1000hp was the new norm).
