Western Members - Anyone around here seen a silver Skyline GTR?

Was an asian guy on reseda blvd, by csun. Plates said "SLO GTR" . Its silver, the back bumper is all black by the muffler from it running too rich. Ive seen him around the los angeles area before, just curious if anyone knows how fast it is and what not. It was right hand drive as well.

Was too much traffic to race, otherwise I would have tried.

If its the one i've seen up at LACR it used to be owned by a white kid late 20's. It was running mid 13's. But that was over a year ago. It is a r33 i believe.

arent those straight up illegal?

Some are but there are a lot of legal ones running around - in fact, there's a company that does nothing but legal Skyline imports to the U.S. - it's pricey but I'm sure they make pleanty.

ahh ya... ok... i found that website.....dood thats siick not to much off an import fan but love those sky lines :drool: :emb:

I've seen it too, used to come to a huge meet off the 605 and Firestone. Its a real clean R33 but damn expensive car

Motorex is the company. They have recently stopped importing them because the owner went to jail. Something to do with fraud, i think. There are about 12 in the US at last count, Nine of which are in california.

I know he is. Much different set up now though. He said about being up around 600hp at the wheels

yup that guy is in jail because the company was getting stolen skylines and getting them imported to the states.

My GF and me just saw a gray one driving north on bellflower BLVD toward the 91 FWY about a week ago. I really liked the looks. Kind of reminded me of the infinity G35. The last time I saw one of those was in a warehouse full of various imported cars of many makes that I never seen or even heard of before. :eek2: I was working on a dynamometer for a company that was in the business of making all kinds of import cars (usually brought overseas from the owners) comply with California’s emission standards.

Shit, if they are illegal, you should be able to get them cheap...
