Thought I'd intorduce myself whilst I'm on here reading up on things.
The name's Mark, and I'm a Brit now living in Calgary. Got a bit of a history with Skylines, about 6 years now and I'm currently on my 4th. Trouble is they have to be at least 15yrs old to import here and coming from my last one, an R33 GTR with 600whp, the current R32 with little more than standard power, it's all a bit of an anti-climax and time to try something different and hopefully a bit newer.
Here's the R32 prior to changing the licence plate and putting the proper headlights back in (needed Accord DOT lights for the provincial inspection).





So soon, hopefully end of this year, I'll have sold the R32 and ditched the Xterra leaving me set to pick up an Evo X, likely a GSR.
For now, I'll continue to get myself educated on the Evo's so that when I do buy one I shouldn't be asking so many stupid questions that have already been asked and answered a thousand times before

Cheers,
Mark

 

Great looking car man!

Welcome to the Evo world.

 

Welcome. This site has a wealth of info

 

Thanks. The suspension has settled a little since those pics and it now sits a little better.

I'm kind of hoping I can swap the Work Meisters over onto the X, maybe with a bit of an arch roll I guess. Hopefully they'll clear the X's front brakes.....only one way to find out I guess

 

welcome. I dont understand how Canada can allow the skyline but not an VIII or IX?

 

the car is nice and welcome to the evo world goodluck on your step to the evo it a fun car to have do you have any engine bay shots of the skyline

 

It was all due to the 15 yr rule.....anything over that just has to have a basic compliance/mechanical inspection and bypasses the bumper requirments which up until a couple of weeks ago used to be different in Canada.

However, they've just changed the requirements to kind of match the US and now I believe all US market Evo's are legal to import, VIII, IX and X....yay

 

Welcome. I love skylines haha. Goodluck on the Evo! And remember the search button is your freind.

 

Only from when I first picked it up so it's embarassingly dusty ....something which has since been rectified

 

Welcome mark. You are going to love the evo. Just like the rb26 power can be easily made and 11's come cheap.

 

Gorgeous skyline there Mark.

Welcome to evom!

 

Welcome Mark. I just like yourself have always been a Nissan enthusiast and kinda still am. I owned a V35 Coupe before but now I'm into the Evo.

 

the beast!! cant wait to see the brother here in US. r35!!

 

Here's the R33 that's made my R32 feel less special than it normally would.......damn I miss that R33!
