Just testing the water as my new job is more local and I will not need a car! (that my excuse anyway - makes me feel better about the situation! new baby is the real excuse, but she is worth it!)
Adam here can vouch for the quickness of this car too, and that was before some mods!

Orig air box
GTR 444cc injectors and fuel rail if they don’t sell on ebay
Rear window rubbers and inserts (the current ones are looking old, but don’t leak!)
A bit about her!
When it came into the UK, I had it serviced and tuned on a rolling road. Service included a new water pump, and the rolling road produced a report at 245BHP (ATF). I have suspicions that it may have an R33 turbo on it, as it’s a very potent car for what was a standard R32. Since the slight modifications, it’s even more impressive, and would put the current BHP around the 270 ATF mark (This is in comparisson with with my Dads old Impreza RB5 Prodrive, which was 280bhp, and mine was quicker (allthough his was 4WD)). When I had the Nissan Power Meter installed, the Peek BHP was 286.2, but this is calculated and I don’t trust it!
The laptop I’m throwing in will either be a 10” TFT or an 8” TFT Fujitsu Siemens B series (you can choose). Running windows 98SE and is fully touch screen with stylus etc. (I have more of these if anyone is interested! Was planning on selling them as a package with the consult cable).
Body:
The body work for a 14 year old car is remarkably good. The rear arches are starting to show slight bubbles under the paint, and the front bumper could really do with re-spraying. I had some work done on the arches a couple of years ago to have them tidied up, which is a common problem on these models (the rear lights are not sealed properly from the factory, and let water in. I resealed them as soon as I got the car, as per this site http://www.skylinegts.co.uk/Project_R32_Leak.htm).
The paint as a whole still holds it shine and getting up close shows all the blues, greens, yellows, red etc. It has the odd scratch in the paint here and there, and there is a pin prick dent (hardly notices) in the passenger door (been meaning to sort this out myself, probably push it out from inside).
The side skirts I had removed, and fully prepped for re-spraying. They are in very good condition and ready to spray and put back on.
The interior is in very good order. No tears in any fabric, passengers air vent was replaced, but the stereo surround (like too many others) is cracked.
Finally, when the arch work was done, the body shop removed some of my interior boot plastics, and lost some of the plastic securing screws, so they are currently loose.
Price:
The price I’m asking you might feel is a little high, but my reason for this, is the fact that only 2 weeks ago, it has had over £300 spent on the 60k service, has a years MOT, loads of tax, good tyres (rears are like new), virtually new clutch, laptop with Consult Cable and Blatz DataScan software, spares/upgrades, Tracker + Security, and it’s a very well looked after innocent Skyline, with myself being the only UK owner.
You will not need to spend any money on this car in the near future at all, it’s ready to drive away and have fun, being rest assured that it’s a good example, and all the expensive servicing has just been done. I estimate over the past 6 months, I’ve probably spent over £1000 on her!
I’m a genuine guy, you can see from my posts on SOC that I’m a regular on there for some years, and you can check my eBay feedbacks (username Belle-Works) just to get an idea about me.
My car has always been looked after by Chris Langley, who currently owns Performance Automotive (www.performanceautomotive.co.uk), and I’m sure if you wanted an unbiased opinion he will be happy to have a chat.
Pics are from last year, but I will put some more recent ones up over the weekend.
£4500 ono
PS – I know you can get a lot cheaper GTS-t’s out there so please don’t bother posting up telling me this!
PM me with questions to keep this post clean.
Thanks
Mike
