About this car

This is a 1996 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec (R33) that has been heavily reworked by R.I.P.S, the Rotorua Import Pro Shop in New Zealand. The original RB26 has been replaced by a built RB30 with a drag-ported Fuze head, Fuze cams, Argo rods, JE pistons and a GT42 turbo, run by a Link G4 ECU. The dealer quotes a range of 750 to 950 bhp.

The drivetrain has been strengthened to suit, with a Nismo twin-plate clutch, a Cusco front limited-slip differential, cryo-treated gears and a lightened one-piece propshaft. Project Mu eight-pot front brakes, HKS and Tein dampers and Do-Luck Double Six 18-inch wheels on Pirelli P-Zero Corsa tyres complete the chassis side. The interior is standard apart from Defi gauges and a turbo timer.

The car is white, a manual and shows 27,000 miles. It was imported to the UK in 2000 with about 39,000 km, and the page says it has covered 3,291 miles in the last decade. The dealer describes the underbody as rust-free and says photos are available.
