PICS my JDM 1995 R33 Nissan Skyline

[venomousr1993]

Well, I arrived over here in Okinawa Japan two weeks ago and though I am going through withdrawals of not having my S4R here, I have found a temp fix.  I picked up this little cream puff earlier this week and waxed it friday night.  Car was very well taken care of and the previous owner hated to part with it.  It is a 1995 R33 Nissan Skyline GTS....Has about 86k kilometers or around 50k miles.  I was originally looking for a GTS-T with a 2.5 turbo motor, but every single one I looked at was an automatic or was hammered to the ground.  This one has the weak 2.0 inline 6 cyl SOHC, but was super clean and had a factory 5 speed.  I have already located a rb26DETT motor with the turbos, wiring harness, ECU and tranny from a GTR.  The swap will be pretty involved since it came from a GTR- R32...I have to source a 5 speed from a GTS-T as well.


Original paint and interior..
Anyway here are the pics...........ENJOY!!!!

[NAKID]

I now officially hate you!  That thing is super clean...

I second what everyone else has said.  That car looks really nice.  You can tell that the previous owner really took care of it.

[Timmy Tucker]

Nice. That is one of my all time fav cars.

[Kopfjager]

Very nice.  Now quit fooling around, and put that steering wheel back where it belongs.

I work at MCAS Futenma....basically the Flightline SNCOIC at HMM-262.  The pic was taken at Camp Foster just down the road.  They change the wipers and turn signals too.....so every once and a while, I will go to turn left or right and not thinking....BAM my wipers are going nuts.  Messed up once and started to take off in fifth instead of first.  Gotta do a good tune up on her though...New brakes, tires and JCI is good for two more years.

There's a couple of DMF'ers over in your area.  I got an offer to work at Kadena AFB this summer.  Post up some more pics of the island when you get a chance to take that thing out sight-seeing.

My dad worked @ VMGR-152 back in the late 80's early 90's, we lived on Camp Foster, looks like the photos were taken on the top of the hill near the wing HQ. Threadjack over

I always liked the Skyline, wondered why they never brought it over here, does it still have the rear steer assist? First tour on Oki? There are some real pretty areas in the northern end of the island, the peace park on the southern tip is nice too. Man I'd love to go back one day.

too expensive and the american market likely wouldn't have accepted the dollar to performance ratio.

iirc, that only other country they actually exported them to was australia, and only to homologate them for rally racing. once they were outlawed for being too competitive, they quit exporting them.
