New motor

[WelshGTA]

we did have an astro van but that was boring so we believe it or not SWAPPED it for an r33 skyline GT-R.

[Callyuk]

looks very nice but i thought at that age they where r32's

[WelshGTA]

its a late 94 model so its an early r33. might have to get a turbo for it as it isn't turbo'd

Then are you sure it's a GT-R? (They were twin turbos weren't they?)

Regardless, it's a nice looking motor.

I thought all GTR's were Turbos? And the non turbos were known as simply R32's, R33's etc?

[Callyuk]

im positive all gtr's where twin turbo and the single turbo was the gts-t non tuurbo's as said where just r....

The GTR was a 2.6 Twin Turbo RB26DETT
The 2.5 was avalable with or without a turbo.
And the 2.0 was also avalable with or without a turbo.

Its the same for R32 and R33 Skylines.

Edit to add : That skyline pictured just has a Standard kit. The GTR had a different body-kit compared to the rest of the range.

And as far as i know its not just as simple to bolt on the turbo.

Definately not a gtr, you can tell but the front end and rear arches

[Firefoot]

To be fair to the guy, it is registered as a GTR
MID database says it is a
NISSAN SKYLINE GT-R R33

[Callyuk]

not much help i no but dvla say its the 2.0 and im guessing an import as the year of manufacture is 1994 but the date of first registration is 2005.
either way i still love the skylines no matter what type they are

[WelshGTA]

to be honest i don't know a lot about jap cars. it was advertised as a gtr and came up as a gtr when i checked the MID. prefer my trans am over the skyline but then the skyline is the wife's
