New toy......R32 GTR!
As some of you will know I sold my 450bhp classic Impreza as I replaced it with an R32 GTR Skyline. It's been away for paint with Ryan (Prodriverules) but now it's back
Thanks to Ryan and Jeff for all the work they've done on the body
Some sunny pics for you all!

I have seen this car from when it was came into Ryan's workshop to how it was when it left and the turnaround has been brilliant.
The car is looking great and it's opened my eyes to getting a Skyline myself, not sure when yet but they do look nice especially in the same colour as yours.

Cheers for the comments lads! I expect a few Impreza owners have seen this car at Ryan's, he's got a few littering the carpark!! A few more small things to finish and then it's time to enjoy it!

Quite a big spec really. The car was a one owner car in Japan and the bloke spent a fortune and had everything done by a company called ZeniTani who are a RH9 tuner. After doing everything myself on my old Impreza I know hoe much it costs to build a decent car, that's why I started with a built Skyline as parts are pretty pricy lol!

More driveable tbh. It pulls from lower down in the rev range and is stronger all the way. It's running twin hks 2530's so they're not huge (spool well) but produce decent power. The Mine's R34 uses them. I drove a supposedly 700bhp big single before I bought this one and there was absolutely nothing below 5k, then everything all at once until 8k but that was on an old design large turbo. HKS T04Z would be the next step but this is PLENTY quick enough for the road.

GORGEOUS!!! Best Skyline in the best colour. Really tempted with one of these next. Id ask about running costs but with that spec its a little out of my range anyway!

I never imported it myself, it was imported in 2006. There's not a huge amount of them for sale in the uk but you can still buy decent standard....ish and modified ones. Prices range from £8k or £9k up to £15k. Clean tidy standard ones car fetch £10k or £11k and modified ones don't necessarily command a huge premium. This one will have cost me about £14k when finished but take parts prices in mind when buying, a rebuild can be from £3.5k to £9k!!

This car has been the same price since it came into the country 7 years ago go hopefully it'll increase in value soon
