Love this, I'd considered trying to match it IF I got 400R skirts on my car, but I think I's also want some LMGT1's to finish the job, and can't part with my TE-37s.

It will be good to get a few reports of how the 400R feels compared to a standardish 400bhp r33 gtr. I have an impression that the engine will be smooth and strong like an Nur engine, extra capacity really boosting mid to top end.

Shin at ProSpec imported that blue one many years ago. It didn't sell, so it went back to Japan.

I think Joni still has his 400R in Finland. (?)

So there'll be four in Europe now.

Yes that's Joni's.

He had it up for sale for a while, but I think he kept it.

White ?

Deep Marine Blue ?

Midnight Purple ?

my three favourite colours on an R33

 

[Simonh]

what sort of money are these fetching?

Seriously though, they are a boat load, but there are only 44 (?) of them. Special.

not questioning the rarity just wondered at the cost

Torque GT did some great detective work recently on a relative, a silver 400R - which had a few rust issues and that sold for £40K in japan = £52K+ OTR UK.

Hey Sully, How's about starting a list trying to find all 44 genuine Nismo 400R's?!

He sold it to a friend of his who is also on here.
Went for a lot less than the original asking price.

had been messed with though hadn't it?

 

[matt j]

Depends what you mean by messed with Mook.
Following the thread, I believe Jon tried to return it to standard including a full respray.
Decals were aftermarket but it did look nice IMHO.

Still waiting for ours to arrive. Decent article? I was lucky enough to drive this 400R to and from the shoot, certainly an experience I won't forget!

Did they promise to send you prints of the shoot? If not, ask them, they did for me.
