There was definately a Skyline 4 door saloon, but not an estate. Though there is an estate car that uses the RB25DET engine from the the Skyline called the Stagea and a limited edition Nismo Stagea 400 that uses the RB26DETT from the Skyline GT-R

I don't even think there was an official 4 door saloon. From what I recall it wasn't made by Nissan, but by some specialist company in Japan.

Cath,

There is a Skyline estate called the Stagea. Andy Barnes has one for sale at the moment. They do have the RB26DETT motor from the R33 and also have GTR running gear. They are huge and look very imposing. There was one at a bedford track day a couple of years ago. This had about 400bhp and was very quick!

They look great in black with pimped windows! LOL. Here's the link to the GTR forum

The Stagea (Autech version) has Skyline running gear.

Autech is part of Nissan and also put the GTR running gear into an R33 4-door saloon as a limited edition 40th birthday car.
