1989 Nissan Skyline GTR Coupe

This 1989 Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R has accrued 25,000 miles. It entered the care of its current owner in 2012, 2 years before its legal inclusion on United States soil was allowed, while the vehicle was still in Japan. After its 25th birthday, it was imported and delivered tot eh state of Louisiana where it has remained ever since.

The car has a 2,568cc dual overhead cam twin-turbocharged inline 6-cylinder engine fitted with an ECCS Multi-Point Electronic fuel injection system offering 276 horsepower. There is a five-speed manual transmission, independent suspension, and four-wheel power-assisted disc brakes. The car has been given some restoration work, including a refurbishment to the digital clock, and the OEM radio was replaced by old stock of the same unit. The speakers were replaced with OEM equivalent Kickers and the AC system had a number of O-rings replaced. The rear window trim has also been replaced. Mechanically, the clutch master cylinder, slave cylinder, brake booster, fluids, and belts have received attention and the MAF sensors were re-soldered. Xpel film has been applied on the front surfaces while Ceramic Pro 9H has been applied on the rest of the exterior. 3M crystalline window tint has also been installed to block UV light.
