I sold my e46 M3 and spent ages looking for anther car. I decided to say f*** it and bought this. Not to everyones taste and I had intended to take the graphics off, but after a few months of ownership they are still on it.

It's had a load of mods done, and I want to start drifting next year, so there you go.

Yummy!

I think the decal thing suits the car (never thought i'd say that), makes it different from all the other white R33's.

No, it's a GTST. Running at just under 400bhp at the rears.

Normally I hate all the OTT jap graphics etc, but on a 400bhp skyline they do look pretty convincing and a lot more authentic! More pics?

Wouldn't normally consider myself a fan of graphics but those look sweet. Were they a custom design? How much did they cost if you don't mind me asking?

They were done by batcars.co.uk, not sure of cost as they were on the car when I bought it, but I would suspect a few hundred pound as they are printed onto one piece of vinly.

They will be coming off soon as I'm going to get Carbon Fibre doors to reduce weight and strip the interior for drifting.

Im really into the styling of this. Looks awesome. The carbon bonnet, contrasting white, the graphics the wheel rim colour.

Me wanting.
