This R33-generation Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec is a smart and tastefully modified example of the highly desirable modern classic Japanese performance hero, offered from long-term ownership. Under the bonnet sits an upgraded turbocharged 2.6-litre ‘RB26DETT’ straight-six, driving all four wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. This example was originally a Japan-delivered model, which was later imported to Australia, where it has been with the seller for the last 12 years. The odometer shows 138,442 Kms from new. Specified with the desirable V-Spec package, this Skyline GT-R originally featured uprated Brembo brakes, stiffer suspension, an active differential, and 17-inch BBS alloy wheels. The car is finished in the handsome shade of Spark Silver Metallic over a grey cloth and synthetic suede-trimmed interior. It rides on an aftermarket set of 18-inch WORK Emotion ‘D9R’ alloy wheels finished in matte-bronze, which are shod in Diamondback tyres. The factory specification includes a heated rear screen, automatic air conditioning, centre console front torque, oil temperature and boost pressure gauges, and electric windows. This example has been upgraded with a Nismo instrument cluster, A-pillar mounted Auto Meter air/fuel ratio and boost pressure gauges, a Pioneer stereo, a GREX gear knob, aftermarket adjustable suspension, a single Garrett turbocharger conversion, an HKS oil cap, a Nitto clear timing belt cover, braided fuel lines, an EPP fuel rail, small Tomei camshafts, a Link ECU, larger injectors, a Gates racing drive belt, a hard intake pipe set, an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator, a twin-plate clutch, and a Sonic Performance turbo blanket. The car comes with a spare wheel, and some maintenance invoices. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: a ‘closed-door’ respray due to sun damage, the driver’s seat outer bolster has slightly lost its shape, and there is wear on the steering wheel. The seller is not aware of any mechanical or electrical faults, and they state that there are no warning lights showing on the dashboard. This Skyline GT-R’s most recent maintenance was carried out in January 2023 at 138,441 Kms by Dynolink, which consisted of an engine oil and filter change, a complete vehicle mechanical inspection, and all new fluids. This R33-generation Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec is a smart and tastefully modified example of the coveted modern classic Japanese performance hero, offered from long-term ownership, and enhanced with a selection of discerning performance upgrades. Reported to be in generally good condition given its age and usage, with a timeless colour scheme, and an upgraded turbocharged straight-six engine, this Skyline would make a smart addition to any assembly of Japanese performance icons, and an involving companion for weekend drives, and visits to car shows alike.
