They are very common up there, almost like Hondas down here. I try to go to Canada at least once a year and they are all over. Its funny my first trip I passed by a buy here/pay here lot and they had 3 on the lot one with 2800.00 price tag. (Which at the time with USD it was like 1400.00 US)

The problem is a lot of them have rust problems (as they are usually late 80's/early 90s). With out shitty USD you have to almost double the price. And it is near impossible to to get it into the US easily/legally.

One of the times I went up I took 3K with me and my goal was to buy one and drive it back to PA where my family owns a car restoration business. I would get it worked over and trailerd back to FL (for next to nothing). After 15 Dealers they all said the same thing, it would cost a fortune and take months and months to do it. If I wanted to illegally bring it in (as someone else stated). I could have a canadian drive it to PA for me and then fly him back. But FL laws require 2-3 months for the car to be registered in US if driven (I may be a little off on time span) and then I would be even more f'd once registration expires.

Then the other option was to drive it into US and try to scam VIN as a US car. But in the end it wasnt worth the hassle and possible fines/tickets I would get.

 

damm that sucks ill have to start looking into this and what not and start finding out what i need to do and exactly how much it would cost to get one of these legally into the states

edit heres a good artical on what needs to be done to legally import a skyline to the us http://www.nicoclub.com/articles/skyline-import-1.shtml

 

^ trust me it will cost more then its worth unless you have a boat load of money or are an absolute lover of skylines.

 

seriously, Gts-t's and whatnot are really not that cool, they're usually busted with shitty interiors. if you really want something skyline like, save your money and buy a S13/S14 shell and RB Swap it, it wont have the omgzsuperturbojdmbbqlulzercopterdoritftoskyrhine factor but itll still be pretty neat and probably wont be rusted.

now a GTR is another story, definitely worth the hassle.

 

Like Jordan said
GTS/GTST/GTS4 Are all shit. Go GTR or Go home.

 

These guys are talking like his newborn baby boy just spontaneously exploded. Its an engine in a car, and neither of which are all that rare.

Just funny I thought.

 

dude, its a skyrhine.

 

Piston number 6 looks like a turd lol.
