Well as most people on here know i have owned my GTR for over 2 years now and just wanted to give a background on how it all started. For five years i owned a 1993 toyota celica st185 gt4 turbo i loved it but a time came were the power i wanted from the car it would have cost me to much money so i made a decision to sell my pride and joy and buy my dream car a skyline gtr.
Here are some pics of my GT4
So the search was on to find a clean example my list of requirements were it had to be a series 3 gtr face lift model-silver-low mileage-standard engine-v-spec and minimum 4 grade on the auctions for the car. It took me about a year but then finaly one day the right car came up. Got a telephone call from one of the jap dealers saying the right car had came up and he sent me some pics
four months later picked the car up from the garage and was on my way home with my dream car
.
Here is a list of parts the car came with
10X18" PANASPORT G7 TWO PIECE SPLIT RIMS
Nismo downpipe
Nismo racing cat
Nismo back box
HKS filters
Apart from that the car was totally standard
Some pics of the car in japan
Some pics of the car in the uk :clap:
So time now for money to start flying out of my pocket
First things first the Nismo racing cat and back box had to go.the first things i bought were
Decat pipe
blitz nur spec cat back exhaust
Next on the list was
tein super street coilovers with upper mounts
volk racing gtc 10.5 x 19" alloys
Have to say a big thanks for matt and Miguel @ Newera for sorting out all my bits at a speedy pace :thumbsup:
So i was off to elite tyres to fit all the bits on the car
Here some pics of the car a couple of weeks later with all the parts fitted
