mmm..i like R33s. Not a bad looking GTS-T. Im thinkin of picking one of thouse but a GTR up if i get my next job.

ya, its just the first time ive seen one in person, in the us

ive seen a 32 34 and the new gtr almost **** my self when i got out of the car and saw a 34 pullin in beside me.

arent we stal...g. nice car.

glad i'm not living over there no more, Ireland doesn't have any restrictions on what they bring in, its class.

there is a kid at my school with the brand new srt8 challenger, wtf? im going to laugh when he wrecks it

umm are you serious?

I've seen an R32 in person, and two Civics with Skyline body kits on them. One had the front end converted, one had the rear end converted. The Civic with the rear end converted looked like crap, obviously. But the one with the front end conversion... That car was well done. If you were looking at the car dead on, you couldn't tell it wasn't a Skyline. You had to see the side of the car before you knew.

Nice find!

the kid imported it from some place in south carolina, got it through florida, and took it to the local dmv and the lady justed asked him if he had it outside, went to look at it, then tagged it, he said it wasnt difficult at all to get it, said it took about a week or so.....maybe a gt-4 is next???

so skylines are rare over there hey.

i reckon i see at least one skyline on a daily basis (32,33,34) r31's i prob see more the one a day.

and if we are talking about doing blocks (duno if you do them over there, but basically people meet up in the centre of town in large car parks, for talks, eye off other peoples cars etc, and drive around the block making all sorts of noise and racing people ).

but yeah if we are talking blocks i reckon i would see more then half a dozen different skylines (mostly gtst/gtt, but some gtr) 32,33,34. Maybe 10 or more s13 based nissans (sivias or 180sx, called 240sx where your from i think) and maye a few s14 and s15 model silvias.

and a few jza80 supras, mostly NA ones but occasionally a turbo. usually only one gtfour, but occasionally a few come out (mine is the only 205) lots and lots and lots of commodores and monaros (called pontiac gto's over there in 2 door form, duno what you call the 4 door ones).

and lots and lots of civics and integras, and lancers, most of those are ricers

>

you seriously saw an r34? how many are actually in the states... haha? lucky you.

Idk I like the celica better... skylines seem played out, and I see a generous amount of them around down here

Cant believe you guys are getting excited over an r33
Take a trip to Sydney and I'll gaurantee you'll be over them within a few days

>

exactly what im thinking, over here r32, 33, 34 arnt that special. hell i even parked next to one at uni. I rekon the r33 is the nicest.

haha yeah...waaayyyy too many in aus.

R31 and AE86 are pretty rare over here, but are worth heaps if you ship them back to japan


round here civics, integras, evo's & GSR's, subby, FTO, VR4 Gailants*/ Legniums (V6 twin turbos), heaps of 32/33 & 34's, silvia's (s14/15) BMW(quite a few with rotors, and engine swap 2.7L) and rotary's

You guys that are sick of Skylines should come to the States. You'll start missing them in a hurry when a Celica is the best car you can get on a budget, and it's not even a GT4

>

Actually, I'll still take the celica over an R33 GTS/GTS-T!
I will never ever miss an R33

I got to drive and work on a new GTR last week

for anyone thinking of getting one, keep in mind the sticker price isn't the only price you pay for them... the one I worked on had just under 10K miles on it, and already needed 4 tires. And the price for 2 255/40/20 and 2 285/35/20 bridgestone run-flat tires came out to about 2K! It was a sick car though...

we have loads of R32s 33s 34s here and now the 35s are starting to become common here in Ireland, great looking car they are too.

There are 2 guys that go to my school that own Righthand R32's. One black.. One Grey

No car is as rare as this car:



Time to GO...............BACK.............2..................THE....
.................FUUUUUUUUUUUUTUREEEEEEEEEEEe!!.

coming from northern ireland, i see deloreans at most car shows as they were made here in the Dundonald factory, they meet up once a year to go for a drive, i went and seen them one year and spotted over 100 in one day, pretty cool or what. The thing is the colour variances of the stainless is weird as you can tell which ones were taken care of and which ones have been out in the elements.

Here's a video i found on you tube i was just down the road a bit there when they past.
