R34 is still my favorite Skyline, if I could afford one and find one legal in CA, I'd probably buy one lol.

[QUOTE=Weber3211]

now thats damn sexy

[Gold Digger]

Be honest here. I have heard that Nomu-ken is pretty much a d!ck to gaijin.

I had my picture taken with him at the Auto Salon in 05 or 06 (can't remember which) and he seemed ok.

But I had heard through a few people that he really doesn't like gaijin. Any truth to that?

it is a Stagea WCR34 Autech it came with a Rb26 with AWD talk about a grocery getter

[Srrrr]

That Stagea isn't an Autech. It was a 2.5RS with an RB25DET in it. Standard fare for that car.

Swapping the R34 GT-R face onto an Autch 260RS actually devalues the car since they are so rare.

great thread. I have always liked the saloons

why would the GTR front on a 260rs degrade the value I have many of them done this wat at auction and they still pull decent money several million yen

Sean, I didn't say that 260RS with a GT-R front would make the car not worth any money, I just said it would devalue the car. Yes, you can still get decent money for it, but not as much as with a standard face.

It goes for just about any car over here. Stockers seem to pull more money than built cars in some cases. Not all, but some.
