Why don't you just buy mine for 10K

.

I would say that the rolling road was conservative at rising sun!. The car's been on GTR.co.uk with a number of owners - It used to have white stickers down the sides with the parts listed .. for love nor money I can't remember the previous owner.

Engine was replaced recently so not much to worry about really. My only concern would be that there may be rust hiding behind the rear spats - spats are the cheap option to hiding rust.

Spec looks alright - the clutch will be heavy unless they have a nismo slave cylinder. Brakes will be pony as they are still standard - I wouldn't want to try an reel in a 500ish BHP GTR on the original set up. Nismo Slave

Hello ian .
Power sounds a bit hopeful for 2860-7's especialy at 1.2 bar unless it has had other work done . Sounds about the same engine spec as mine & i couldnt get near that ( 490 fhp ) @ + 1.2bar & that was with Dr. hayward playing

. In the pics it has an abbey m/s sticker on the boot so it might pay you to give them a bell & see if they can shed some more light on the car. Im sure stu & the others will be able to point you in the right direction . Hope this helps a bit .

Cheers , matt .
