So, the combined pressures of promotion and new baby due next month mean I have literally no time to finish my labour of love, so it\'s time for me to give up on her and just buy something fast and boring and already finished!

She was new in 1995\' and is one of the 125 or so originally registered in the UK, so I\'m hoping to send her to a good home in Europe as I know Jap imports are problematic for you guys.

I\'ll get pictures up when the weather improves.  cosmetically she\'s a bit tatty but nothing embarrassing.  Interior has started to be stripped from rear seats back, but front is intact and in good condition.  No stereo at present

Chassis at about 86000 miles, engine last rebuilt at 53k if I remember correctly.

Basic spec list:
Stock ports,
GT35/40 ball bearing turbo, copy HKS waste gate has seen better days, I\'d replace.
ID2200 secondaries, Billetbitz rail, Supra fuel pump, aeromotive regulator
Oversize pulleys and no air pump, nice anodised red, including alternator pulley.  Aircon deleted.
Copy HKS front mount, means a real one will fit nicely and that was the plan
Koyo NFlow radiator, WGT steel AST
Tein Superstreets, two sets of standard wheels, one with dead tyres and one with Toyo R888s with lots of life left.
3" stainless downpipe, 2 Midpipe options, a ReAmemiya SD Cat and an unbranded silenced Midpipe.  Racing beat twinpipe cat back.
Greddy Profec B Spec 2; innovate wideband; powerFC with commander and datalogit
Magnecore leads, brand new racing sparks, oddessy battery relocated to behind driver seat.

Think that\'s about it...

Nothing has more than 2000 miles on it (apart from chassis and engine of course!)

So, MRC friends in Europe, who needs a UK chassis to get you going, with lots of nice bits to be recycled in to your track project?  easy ferry trip from Zeebrugge to Rosyth in Scotland, plus 60 minute drive to Glasgow.

Really not interested in silly UK low ball offers for the car, UK chassis are worth F-all over here, but I know it\'s value over the channel!

It really is a shame that owners of UK cars only really want to sell their cars over seas as they fetch so much more over there.
While I can understand why owners do this it\'s still sad that with such a small amou t of UK cars registered we are losing them to Europe.
Good luck with the sale and I really do hope some one comes along in the UK with the right money to save this from Europe. Come on UK buyers get your wallets out.

They go for north of €15,000 over the channel, and I\'ve got some bloody good kit on it.  In the UK it\'d be nothing like that due to the number of jap imports banging about.

It\'s been sat on the drive for ages while I\'ve been working on it on the odd sunny saturday, so I\'m happy to sit and wait for the right buyer.

Just to be clear, I\'m not looking for as much as that - buyer will need to come and get it off my drive in Glasgow and pay cash, so more like €13,000 seems fair.

Forgot to mention braided clutch and brake lines, HKS TwinPower as well, and still to be fitted: new track rod ends and poly engine mounts.

Right, pictures:

Just a heads up ....i sold a skyline quite a few years ago to a bloke from Norway !!! Send DVLA a letter stating time and date exported and take copies off all paperwork....bloke hit every toll road and couple of speed cams on way home and all the letters ended on my mat ! Big pain in the arse to sort out.

Are you willing to sell the apexi power fc ecu on it\'s own and trade you a standard ecu with cash?
