nedb and GTS_DUY, its a standard GTSt with JUN 4 Door GTR Kit. It also sports an SR20DET.

As for the rear tail lights, they are from a coupe. if you wanna do a rear lights conversion drop me a pm, we have copied rear bars that allow you to fit coupe style tail lights and bootlit.

I nearly bought one from Queensland that was done by Skyline imports. It was black GTS4 R33, but had all the R33 GTR V-Spec gear including the pumped guards. They wanted $40k for it, I got it inspected and before I could put a deposit on it, someone from Dubbo bought it:rant: . The conversion was very well done, but it was not a real 4 door GTR. I looked at importing one and I could not get it for less than $75k onroad. This is because the did not have SEVS and needed to go through all the evidence crap. Even though they have the same driveline, the exhaust is dirrerent, so it would not pass. I think you would find that Edwardo's car has a yellow (pesonal import) compliance plate as it would not have passed under the new scheme. I also looked at a Stagea 260RS in Queensland and this car was $60k, but it is not the same as a REAL 4 door GTR.....I had to settle for a XR6 Turbo at the end of the day, but I would swap it in a heartbeat for that 4 door GTR:wassup:

Mine was imported under the old scheme. I saw the black one as well it was a very nice conversion. I have seen one other a silver 97 it ended up in SA. They only came in three colours. White, silver and purple (the one I really wanted).

It is amazing how many Skyline owners who stop and don't believe it is genuine ,until I let them inspect it.

Pics of the interior and under the bonnet, and the other two colours.

I've seen this car in the flesh. It's very nice ;)

I even took a very bad quality photo of it with my mobile :P

That is at Gavin's shop it is using a bit too much fuel.( I know it is a GTR) but one of the oxygen sensors is faulty I am waiting for one from Japan, and a Power FC.

    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car  
    • For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..
    • +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
