  • Finally! Picked up my GTR last Fri :)

    It's been a long drawn out shopping process, started almost a year ago with the idea of picking up a jdm market Lotus/Caterham 7, which changed to an usdm E60 M5, then to a usdm S2K, then finally to a R33 GTR. A few good candidates were found but in the end I was lucky to end up with this MNP below

    Bone stock mechanically except for a very quiet Nismo exhaust with CF pipe. No suspension mods, no intake, just all oem goodness. The past owner did minor updates to the car like swapping out all the interior bulbs to leds, new gear shift and brake boots, N1 ducts, unidentified front lip, grill and R34 wheels.

    No major plans this year, I just want to enjoy the car. I'll prob just drop it on some mild springs and I already have a set of 18x9.5 bronze TE37's.

    I'll update this thread with new pics as I take them. Its been snowing this past weekend -doh!

    OMG!


    I have to give props to the guys at RD, it was by far one of the best buying experiences I have ever had...and I've bought a lot of cars in my time. It exceeded all expectations. The people at Otto's BMW and Tony Graham Lexus here in Ottawa can learn a few things from these people. The car came complete with all oem books and documentation, all history of the car, importation papers etc in a nice binder with extra space for future records. I didn't even have to drill my plates to fit them to the jdm screw holes as RD had fabbed little alum adaptor plates. Its fine details like that which makes a difference to picky people like me.

                  E60 M5 is gone (bye bye 9mpg guzzler!!), just gonna DD the GTR now for the summer, NSX track car, Honda Odyssey Touring family hauler and I'll likely pick up a used Infiniti FX as a winter vehicle come fall.

                  Sooooo nice to be back in a GTR again after all these years. The drive to work today was awesome.
