His is not legal, I would get one from Canada for 15k legal, Since Canada/US have the 15 year law. That means fully legal 89 gtr32 for 10-15k. The vspecll is cool, but an unregisterd one for 20+ seems like an expensie headache. Go for it if you like it, It's a damn sweet car, but 20k for a ur car is too much.

WOW! $22K for a Skyline GTR that is not legal? Now I feel like a damn moron. My parts supplier who gets me my engines and clips also imports cars every once in a while. He currently has a S14 Silvia and a '97 RX7 TT, sitting in his shop that are not legal. He gets his brother to buy them in auctions in Japan and strips them for the parts. Since they are sold as "parts" he could technically sell the whole vehicle with no problems. About 5 months ago he called me saying he had a '92 Skyline GTR VSpecII in GunMetal Gray being shipped with 67k KM. He was going to sell it to me for $10K. He also added plates and VIN's from an S13 240SX he personally crushed so I could register it as a 240SX. I passed on the opportunity and thanked him kindly...DAMMIT!!!! I should have gone for it!

Lol no ****.... I was driving up to Southern Poly one night and saw this car and stopped to talk to the guys. It was a huge group from finish line just hanging out at their new shop. The car looked fine then but i didnt see it drive. They said they sold it to someone but i didnt know it was you Jay. Tony, if you were the one who ragged it out... good job . And also... WTF ever happened to Unstable Hybrids???

wow 32. the thing i like about a 32 is the orange corners. i dont like the r33 at all. its either 32 or 34 =). nice a vspec II you can go smashin gon almost any other japanese car out there now!!!. too bad its not black still really nice though. Damn are u rich? i see a corolla behind one of the pictures and a 14.

getting it registered as another car is no biggie just the trouble with the pigs if they ever pull you over. but thats the same if you have a sr20det or a ka-t too so no big deal. either way if they make us pop our hoods they'll get us.

well i registered here just to straighten out a few things i found horribly wrong with some of the posts in this thread concerning that beautiful GTR.

1. the US does NOT share the 15 year law with canada.2. motorex looks like it is going under, in other words bankrupt.i suggest you go here http://www.skylinesdownunder.c...38686and read the thread on how many things are going wrong with them.

sorry to sound like a total jerk for my first post, but i like to spread the truth...my username is Jack The GTR on some other nissan related boards if you need me.here is another discussion we had on it @ club240 http://www.club240.com/forums/...17633

see ya.

too much money... but hey, its rare.. im sure i'll miss them when i go back to the U.S.

if anyone else is interested on getting a skyline let us know at hipertekspeed.com

we shop, give you options, give us money, we buy and then send it to you (sounds simple?) you just have to deal with the legalization crap.

we have two right now on the way to Motorex. R34 GTR Vspec and a R33 GTR type M. I hate to hear Motorex is crapping out...
