Problem solved.

Its not that simple, unless you don't want to register it for street use. Otherwise you would see eleventy billion Skylines on the road.

there were like 20-25 of them and they are all sold. the car is no longer in production. it was a short production run from nismo to coincide with the Fairlady Type-E homologation JGTC car,

Wait dont they make 20 of them a month? I heard from somewhere else that Nissan still makes them but its a limited production of 20 per month.

from my understanding it was either total or even if it was per month its still not being made. but i gonna do some checking to verify

i did read that 20 per month thing in a few articles relating to the good wood festival in the UK a few years back where the european one debuted.

but this was before the V2 aero kit came out and the S2 engine upgrade. the S-tune GT has the S1 engine. i always thought they abandoned this car a year or so ago.

Humm, makes me wonder if its still in production or not. The website I linked to in my OP looks like it's still in production. If it wasnt wouldent they of said it was sold out or out of production?

you can use an online translator to help navigate your way around. ( it doesnt to that good of a job though)

at least the tabs up top are english so you can see the stock list and things like that
