Finally I got a car I could only dream about as a kid. Looked into importing, traveling to the south, going across the pond... but whatever way I done it, I new I needed to have an R33.
I had a few temptations of other cars along the way thinking it was going to be impossible. Until @Jonny1992 sent me the advert for this beast that he had found on facebook. After a load of texts, phone calls & lots of photos later, I decided it was worth a road trip to Scotland to pick her up. It was the best 115 miles home I've ever driven.
It's a big one for me, my 1st RWD & my 1st Turbo.
Not huge spec & nothing really notable besides GTR front bumper, roof spoiler, huge exhaust & racing wheel. It's a solid car, sounds incredible & spits flames like a dragon. A few niggles, but for a 1996 car it's to be expected. So I'll be spending the next month getting her ready for the road before I unleash that beast. Can't wait to get her out and roaring again!
Anyway, here she is. Maybe not the cleanest looking, but I've plenty of time ahead of me to make her my own & clean her up.
A few pics in Scotland.
Clearly a happy chap!
My 1st tank of super!
Back home
My 2 Jap beasts!
She's far from perfect but I'm in love with it. .. Plans just to get her running perfectly with all niggles sorted, clean her up a little & enjoy it for at least a year before any mods (famous last words).
