Exclamation My New Skyline

Well I just recently made my first true "money is no object" purchase. I have always longed for the Skyline GTR. And now i have completed all of the transactions. The following are some scaled down and low res pictures that were taken by a professional photographer who will release the hi-res pics once he takes his last set at our next shoot on weds. I hope you all enjoy. B.T.W. I have already installed aftermarket wheels, spoiler, and body kit and CF Hood







My new hood









My new wheels, i love them because they remind me of jet engine turbines.


A scuff on my front bumber, it was damaged in transit, a new one should arrive in a few weeks, if all goes well.

that's a nice R34 but you should paint your CF hood to match color. i m not really feeling your wheels either man.

i have 360 spyder and a yellow lambor too

Here's a GTS-T that's received a full GTR engine conversion from a local show a couple of weeks ago. I cant even begin to imagine the amount of work and money that went into this baby....

(we here in Asia do have plenty of these cars all over the streets though)
