1994 Nissan Skyline GT-R (BNR32) — Silver Metallic

GT-R is the grade on this one, which on an R32 means the BNR32 chassis and not the GTS cars that share the bodyshell. It was first registered in November 1994, late in the model run, and the odometer shows 63,409 km. The paint is Silver Metallic, a colour that hides light swirl marks better than the darker options do and tends to photograph well in flat Japanese winter light.

Under the bonnet sits the RB26DETT, the 2.6-litre twin-turbo straight six, sending drive to all four wheels through ATTESA E-TS and a manual gearbox. Two doors, right hand drive, petrol.

Repair history present. That flag can cover anything from a replaced bumper support to proper structural work, so I'd want to see the inspection sheet or underside photos before forming a view. On a thirty-two-year-old turbo car with these kilometres, that's the first question worth asking, ahead of anything about the boost.
