England trip - GT-R time
hello all you SoCal beauties,
just though i would share a little experiance i am having back in my homeland atm.
basicly my step-father is a skyline nut, he has a R33 and R34, both heavily modified. when i lived in the UK befor i moved to cali i could never get on the insurance to even look at either of them. but i just managed to get on the R33 for 1 day (yesterday) and what can i say, it was realy fun.
his R34 is in the shop due to some little explosions he had under his hood 3-4 moths ago at a Santapod drag day
the R33 is running a respectable 480 at the moment
here are some pics i took at the end of my day of driving. at a small car meet in my home town
what ya think then guys and gals?, the retro NISMO rims make my LOL so hard

I'm a Brit myself, livingin Cali and I went back there just last week for a family get-together. I saw 3 Skylines over there, one R34 and two R33's just sitting around like it was a normal thing (well, it is normal back over there).
I saw one sitting at the seafront in Eastbourne that was HEAVILY modified. Trouble is, most of the streets and roads around there don't let you speed as compared to U.S. roads.

I think the turbo might be out of its efficiency range.
