They also make a skyline called the blackbird. The take a Skyline GT-R R-34 V-spec. Upgrade the intake turbo's, the timer, blowoff valve, ecu, full suspension, everything. It cost like $150K US, but it puts out just shy of 600hp 600 torque.
It only comes in black and made in limit numbers. Make you all moist in the drawers doesn't it?

black bird is just the name the gave their car which is a regular black GTR that the suped up and named it. Its only one car. not a limited edition. jst body kit, supspension, engine upgrade...It only has a little over 400hp. and i think it was only 110K at most, thats if i remeber correctly.

yum yum.
motorex cars are not used. only thing is that you have to get used to driving on the right side cause they cant change that. although i bet for some hefty money you can do it. anything is possible with money. btw how much is your freind willing to pay?

Why change it? That's one of the novelty's of a skyline.

All of motorex's car's are used. I have never seen them sell a brand new never driven skyline. There is only one none left hand drive skyline, some guy in sweden (or maybe finland) did it. And it was'nt a cheap conversion for sure.

yes, all of motorex's cars are used. there are a bunch of lhd skylines in the middle east. they modify a nissan laurel interior and do some swapping.
actually theres 3 including the 2 from nissan that they built as show cars, but thats just details. also how would you know that none of them are new because all that they do is buy the car ship it and you pay for that plus theyre profit

that might mean that the inventory is new, not the cars.
look at <a href="http://www.motorex.net/stocklist.html" target='_blank'>http://www.motorex.net/stocklist.html</a> and find me a new car.

once again Minime has lived up to knowing JACK about Skyline or GTR's. if the milage has more that 100 miles on it it's not friggen new in my book. and they all have well over that if u bother to read the stock list. u can swap then to LHD, there is a place working on a kit for it, but right now the only ppl i have seen that have the cash to swap steering wheels and dashs are the Middle East oil tycoons. and the dashes LOOK LIKE ASS. and there are several items that are disabled just cuz of the fact that they had to swap the drive side.
