Hey guys

Just wondering if there's any detailed information of photos floating around on the Nissan (R32) Skyline GTB-4. I believe there was only 1 (or a few) built - one now residing at Red Park, but finding good detailed pics (exterior & interior) and information on it is next to impossible. I came across a site that had pics of some form of book called GT-R Maniacs, but the pics a really small:

If anyone knows where I can find info on this rare Skyline it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Brendan actually posted this for me - from what we can glean it had the complete manual BNR32 running gear as opposed to the Autech Version 4 door GT-R which had the 26DE with an Auto.

Was contemplating going full wide body with my 4 door - until I saw the price of the rear conversion guards...

Brendan,

From what info I've collected:

"Not strictly a GT-R but a standard 1993 HNR32 (four door) that was built as a complete car by S&S Engineering - independent of Autech Japan - the project was led by Shinichiro Sakurai and based on a four door GTS-4. The engine and drivetrain are directly transplanted from a BNR32 GT-R, along with front fenders, front bumper, headlights, taillights, interior, and some beautiful 'one-off' rear guards. The whole car is a one off exibit but Skyline fans often confuse the GTB-4 as a car produced by Autech, which it is not."

Sorry I don't have any big pics.

Thanks Rezz.

So the next time anyone's heading to Red Park - ask if you can take some really detailed pics and get some more details.

Cheers

Brendan

As far as I recall reading, there were 5 made.

I also assumed they were done by Autech, and that they were essentially factory-certified GTR sedans...

These are small pics, but I've attached them none-the-less.

Man, to get my hands on either a GTB-4 or an Autech R32 would bring tears to my eyes!
