Talking My new GTR! (looks quite similar to my old one!)

As some of you may know, I sold my old GTR a little while ago as I was planning on buying Madsteve's GTR, unfortunately the deal never went through, so to make myself feel better I bought this, hope you guys approve!







More pictures coming as soon as it stops bloody raining

Comments more than welcome.

very very smart Nath!

more pics please!

also, are those jun skirts or 400R ones? depth looks 400R but could be wrong...any idea where they came from?

looks very clean chap!!!

only thing i would possibly do is carbon rear blade? then leave it as is.

Thanks mate.

As far as I am aware they are 400r skirts, they came with the car from Japan. I am hoping they are original as I have a nismo receipt in the paperwork! Japanese is not my strong point though, might post it up to see what the document says

Carbon blade is next on the shopping list, then engine mods, brakes etc.............. its going to get expensive again

Looks amazing. Wheels and colour go very well together, I would personally have to change the front splitter to a real 400R front splitter that doesn't have the bottom middle of it set back slightly i.e

Thanks for the comments chaps.
Light-R, I think your correct white is the best colour, really does set of the R33.
MacGTR, where did you get that splitter from?

Really nice, Nathan. Love the side skirts but the front is a bit busy for my taste.
Look forward to meeting up. What mods are planned?

White R33 on GT1 LMs - doesnt get much more perfect than that.

Thanks mate, thought the same about the bumper when I first picked up the car, but I must admit it really has grown on me. Makes people move out of your way pretty sharpish aswell
As for mods, who knows, but as you know they seem to empty wallets as quickly as they empty their fuel tanks
Drop me a pm when you want to meet up

Cheers mate, front bumper came from Knight-Racer. Looking at it last night, the bumper is one piece so looks like it has to stay like that for a little while.
Whilst on the subject, many thanks to Joe @ Knight Racer for sourcing the bumper for me. Top guy to deal with

More pics coming soon

....what about some spacers on the wheels mate to bring them flush with the arches? in those last pics they seem to sit in a bit?

and if your going for a full 400R look, get some arch extensions?

I think that's my crap photography mate, they fill the arches nicely. Not to sure about the arch extensions to be honest, bit like marmite...........
Will def drop you a line if I am up your way, likewise if you ever venture down south
