No but I've been fortunate enough to get a ride in a R33 & R34 before.The only right hand drives I've driven has been a 93 honda prelude 95 civic and integra

How the hell did your friend get his hands on a Skyline. Im not a huge import fan but even I would like to own one. Are they available in Canada, or was it imported? I guess I assume imported since its lhd. Id convert it to rhd before I looked into making it faster.
Sweet ride for somebody.

there are a few companies importing the r32's and r33's iirc. i wouldn't mind getting my hands on a JDM evo 6 of some spec.

okay so scratch the Pioneer DEH-P9800BT...its now going to be a Pioneer AVH-P5900DVD //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

edit: lol or perhaps a double din......

after discussing with my buddy last night we decided to get this double din unit instead. it is the pioneer AVH-P6800DVD

so now the stages will be...

1) all the wiring, the component amp and the 2 sets of components. using the stock deck for now..for cds

2) new head unit goes in and the middle set of guages in dash are relocated to the a-pillar. and the other three go underneath.

3) deadening

4) sub amp/subs go in...in the box that will be built.

Even then if I had the money to buy a veyron, I would probably own a different car as my "daily" lol.

That is actually probably the only ricer that i like is the gtr skyline where did he pick it up at? i have never seen many of those here in the us unless your not in the us where u at?

not all cars that are made in asia are rice lol....

anyhow the gts-t and gtsm's or whatever they are...are a dime a dozen up here. not uncommon to see them. gtrs arent as common but they arent rare. im in canada so perhaps the law is a little leaniant for imported cars.

an no, a 1000 hp daily driver would be ftl. who would actually consider that practical haha
