And rims of course. |

honestly i would just drive the fuck outta it this year.. rebuild it over winter.. just stay away from the rev limiter and it will hold fine. I would suggest wheels/tires/suspension first. |

| The only problems is that the build that I have planned will take time and lots of $$$ so unless I dont plan on driving the Skyline for a while then its best I get another engine. |

Hey Rich_A where did you get this info from? |

| Altezza |
Im debating between 2 sets of Work rims the VS-XX and the Meister S1 3P both are going to be a deep dish rim just not sure which would look better whats your opinion?
Heres a picture with both of them side by side on a FD

| Slow Cruiser |
| Both are nice deep dish, but im still a old scholl fan of any 5 spoke... So put me down on the blue car one |

Id like to know where you got your info from?
Off wiki...
"The Skyline GT-R 'Nismo', introduced in February 22, 1990, has a total production of 560 units as required for the "Evolution" models regulation (over 500). Its purpose is to homologate a number of aerodynamic changes used in Group A racing. Changes include additional ducts in the front bumper to improve airflow to the intercooler, a bonnet lip spoiler to direct more air into the engine bay, and an additional boot lip spoiler to provide more downforce. The 'Nismo' GT-R was only available in Gunmetal Grey."
Correct me if I'm wrong, I havnt even seen a "nismo" edition skyline in real life. |

| It's up for debate weather or not the Nismo editions have steel turbos or not. Some people say they do, some people say they don't, but I haven't seen a set of turbos off a nismo edition to know for sure. |
|
|
| Altezza |
Well I guess I have to rip one of my turbo's out and see what kind it is.
Oh Tokes whats the weight of your car? I will compare it to mine and see if there is a difference. |

| I think the VS-XX's would give the car more of a luxury look and would be suited for the car as it's the nismo edition. :thumbup: |

another confirmation of this being an actual nismo (wich i will attest to)
no rear wiper, and no factory radio/AC, so unless someone spent alot of time and money to do a damn good job of deleting these itmes from Altezzas car, it is the real deal. |
