I absolutely love those wheels. They would look so sick on my s13. Wanna trade for some 4 lug Rotas?

Ok.... maybe the canadian humour is not coming across...

I didn't think the offer to trade 4 lug Rota wheels for 5 lug Rays LMGT4's was real... hence the sarcasim.... Sorry!

I always like to see what's happening south of the border... We're all envious that you could buy R34's and R33's... R32's are unfortunately becoming a low priced commodity up here... Lots of junkers were imported depreciating the value...

Ya Canada!

I think I like the R32's more anyway. They only thing I like more about the newer GTR's is the interior.

[/quote]Ya, I see a lot of GT-S up here and hope they have the RB26 in it, but no... . In fact, I've seen an automatic GT-S which almost made me laugh, but it was too sad...

Isn't it hard as balls to get a Skyline in the US though compared to Canada? I know we can only get cars that are 15 years or older (in the States it's 25 years?), and the only exception would be the 96s that Motorex crashed for safety, and later found out that they were doing illegal stuff (so I hear).

LOL! I had no clue how rare the are... They are authentic... I've seen silver and gold for sale, but no black ones yet...

I'll be taking a pic of the complete car soon... It has Z-Tune style graphics on it... it looks like a baby Z-Tune!
