Nice. Guess that's one of those MotoRex imports?

Dunno about those rims though. Advan AVS look better IMO.

i dunno, i think they look pretty good . . .

i love all generations of skylines, but i think if i was given the choice, i'd take an R32. i just the raw-er look of it.

Yeah, it's straight from MotoRex, I think there is even a MotoRex sticker on the front fender.

I actually think the R34 is hideous, and the R-32 is too boxy. I like the R-33 (aka the slowest one). But I have never heard of an R34 in the states, motorex says they are not available.

They are brining the Skyline (not the GT-R) to the US within 2 years for sure... it will be an infinity. Reliable source!!!!!!

FYI!

Wait, MotoRex DOES bring the R34 Vspec GTR here to the US. Hence the one you see in the picture, plus the one the Paul Walker personally drives, which I sat in (he's the guy from F&F). The reason that their are no R34's currently advailable is since they are not in stock and they are in very limited numbers remaining. As for Nissan bringing the skyline here, well we'll see. Maybe when they make a R35 model. The current R34 will never be sold here since you can't convert the car to a right-hand drive since the engine and turbo design won't fit the steering coloum on that side.

I've seen more than one in this area. I saw one kicking around in Sunnyvale not too long ago. In fact, there were 2 in the parking lot at Hot Import Daze.

It was funny that the largest crowd was in the event was standing around the one inside, while we were outside getting a close up look at a basically identical one in the parking lot.
