i wouldn't for just the RWD, otherwise GTR Nur spec II

 

Good luck with that. i hope you are ready to spend about $100g to get it here and legalize it...

Keep your Evo. Like it was already said, the intercooler on that 240 is garbage. You never now what kind of other garbage parts they used in that car. I saw it in Turbo. Your Evo is more reliable. Unless you plan on doing a lot of drifting, keep your Evo. My .02.

BTW Tuners throw the rb25 trans in the skyline (even the GT-R) for drifting and dragging. The AWD ATTESSA-ETS trans is not ideal for dragging or obviously drifting.

 

Well guys I drove both cars today and to be honest with you I think I am going to keep the EVO. The 240 tires would brake loose at 60MPH if you hamered it from a roll, so regarless of how much power it made it wouldn't matter. The Skyline was sick, but just not worth the money knowing what they really sell for down in Japan. So I guess I am keeping the EVO.

 

I will go take pic's of both cars this Saturday for you guys.

 

I hope your not talking to me??? we have a skyline, registered and insured in the state of NY with a NYS title. the car was 43k. an R34 GTR will go for 60k-75k legalized, but 100k is ridiculous.

 

no one is going to japan and bringing back anything. only possible way is if you have a passport from another country and you can bring it on a 1 year visa. its still ultra hard and even if you do, 12 months later, DOT will come a knockin

 

your numbers are off. I suggest you call Motorex.

 

I want this

who the hell doesnt lol..


glad you decided to keep the evo!

 

wait till next years NEW Nissan GTR old skyline is way outdated and heavy. only saving grace is EZ modable engine for HP

 

Actually I can go to Japan on orders and bring back a skyline on the 12 month visa. There are stipulations sure and quite lengthy at that. I have read them as well as the DOT site. It will cost me approx. 15-17 grand to legalize it. Motorex charges much more to legalize and Motorex is not currently importing or planning on continuing to import the skyline.

 

Don't think an Evo would be more reliable than an R33, but I do agree the Evo is a better car.

They would've used the RB25 tranny because it's easier to convert in a RWD car as a GT-R box has holes for the transfer case, and the RB25 box is also the strongest factory Nissan box you can get.

Back on the subject, you'd probably regret trading your Evo for an R33. Has it been converted to left-hand drive?

 

if ur thoughts are on bringin an skyline from japan..why dont just bring a evo 6 or 5???or a impreza version 6sti, or a silvia?? i mean the possibilities are endless..

 

If I said I want this car over any Ferarri or Lambo ever made would people laugh at me?

 

I like the r33 bodystyle, if it was AWD i'd say go for it since you probably won't see another in the area for quite sometime. But I like the Evo better so keep the evo!
