Anyone like Skyline GT-Rs?

Nice, clean, cars will always be at a premium, and even in Japan the R32 GT-R is a high dollar car IF it's a coveted, well kept car. Case in point- we brought in two NISMO BNR32 for the US market, one was more ratty (#383 I nicknamed it Mickey Rourke) and the other much cleaner (#500). The clean car was three times the price of Mickey.
The bigger issue about the R32 GT-Rs is- since it originally was a homologation special, the interior was designed to be a quick stripper- and that interior deteriorates quick for a premium Japanese car. There's a big market for OE interior bits and pieces because of that- discoloration, fabric wear and dash deformation/delaminating are all problems.

This is my friend's car. Its a little rough, he took out the front diff and parts to make it RWD.

I wouldn't have done it either. He threw a front axle one night driving home and pulled the fuse to get the rest of the way home. He liked it more as a RWD so instead of fixing it he gutted it.

Axles are available at the Driveshaft Shop.
RX6 are big snails. I tried the 53B60s and didn't like them. Good all around turbos are the 2530 for a stock block. On my 2.8l the GT-RS turbos really wake up with mild cams with mild lift. On a stock block they typically have problems with high boost threshold and lag, probably similar to the RX6. Not the kind of response I like.

I dont know his car well enough but I think its stroked but Im not sure. I think he will be selling it soon.
Also I like the R35 brakes on yours.
A couple cars back he built a legit 1000rwhp S2000. Insane car.

No just an around town fun car. There is no rhyme or reason to what he builds. He does what he wants. He actually drove it from DC to Philly and back one time on his 750hp setup and did Skyline drive on this setup. He just kept a fuel can full of E85 with him to fill up.
