Well most of these people did not even answer your question, anyways, if you have the chance to get a GT-R then go for it. It is an awesome car and has a lot of performance potential. That is my dream car and I am unable to get one in the states. But in Ireland you're so lucky about getting that car. You don't have to worry about anything, but fixing that thing up would be insane. It is the lightest of the 3 GT-Rs. if you do a little history on it, it is know as "Godzilla" in japan and when it first came out it dominated every race that it was in and had to be put into its own catagory of race in Japan. It is much better than the current skyline and 350z put together. The VQ35DE has nothing on the RB26DETT.

And neither did you. Clearly written in his post is that he is getting an engine and wants a Ford to fit it in.

Did he mention wanting any rice paper jap crap, eh NO!

And who the f**k advertises a replica Breitling in their sig

You sir are a clown so back to the circus with you .
