Helping a friend sell a 1991 Nissan Skyline GTS-T R32 Type M.  This is arguably one of the most sought after exotic Japanese supercars to be offered for sale in the US.  EBay does not have a category for this car, so I placed it in the closest one available.  It is basically a stock version with the following mods:

Aftermarket parts that came with it from Japan:
  • Blow-off valve HKS SQV(Sequential Valve) Note, this is not the 'modern' SSQV which is a very high pitched and loud sound, this has a much quieter, natural, but still noticeable blow-off sound.
  • JVC Amp and Subwoofer combo under driver's seat.
  • Datasystem ATS234 Turbo timer.
  • In-dash TV with analog tuner
  • Sony cd-player and radio with removable front cover.
Aftermarket parts installed by previous owner:
  • AEM UEGO Wideband Air Fuel ratio gauge
  • Apexi SAFC (original SAFC, not SAFC 2 or Neo, currently hooked up for read-only, doesn't affect fuel maps)
Aftermarket parts installed by current owner:
  • 3A Racing Air Intake Filter
  • Glowshift PSI Boost gauge

Mechanically, absolutely everything works on the car. 2 warning lights seen in the pics indicate a parking brake and a door open. Car has excellent compression, does not leak any fluids, no strange or unusual noises, and does not smoke.  Primary tach is in-op, however the RPM's are correctly regsitered on the Apexi airflow converter. Oil changes are done using the best and most advanced synthetic oil on the market, Royal Purple. Odometer reads in KM, but the conversion to miles is X .62 .  

Cosmetic there are just a couple items to point out.  Along the left side it appears the car brushed up against a white object (see pics below).  This blemish is found just above the front wheel, just ahead of the rear wheel and a bit by the back bumper.  It's hard to see from the pics taken 10ft out, but closeups will indicate this.  Also, there is some light fading around the fuel cap that is also seen in the pics.  The paint is original and for some buyers add value, so I'll leave it up to the new owner on fixing or just re painting with the buyer's choice of color. Car was originally in southern Japan (salt free) and once delivered to North America, garaged during winters.  I believe these high resolution pictures to be quite accurate in representing the car and are consistent with the age and mileage of this car.

This Skyline is a grey market vehicle, meaning it was never intended to be driven in the United States.  The buyer will receive a clear PA title.  Although a title and registration can be obtained in most states, this car does not meet Federal Emissions or Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and is therefore recommended for export or off-road/track use only.   VIN # is HCR32258012

It is rather unlikely the car will be financed through traditional lending sources.  If seeking a car loan, or any loan for that matter, please ensure you are approved prior to bidding.  I will not accept finance problems as a way to back out of the winning bid.  

The car is currently located in metro- Detoit, MI, but will be shipped via truck to Carlisle, PA towards the end of auction.  Therefore, the car will be available for inspection in Carlisle.  Please contact me for exact dates.  Although titled, the car is not registered for US roads, so the winning bidder will need to keep that in mind when purchasing the car.  I'm not excited about delivering the car, but can do so via private truck/trailer if need be.  If you are thinking of having the car delivered, please contact me prior to bidding to discuss the details.  As the seller will not be the one delivering the car, it will need to be paid in full prior to leaving.  Closest airport to fly into is MDT and will provide free airport transportation to car.  Tickets are fairly cheap on priceline, and given the age of the vehicle, would recommend all interested bidders in coming out to have a look.

Payment terms: 1/2 of purchase price due within 3 days of the close of auction with the balance due within 14 days or at time of pick up.  Will accept bank to bank wire or cash (in person of course) only.  Paypal is required in order to bid but not accepted as a form of payment.  

eBay messages also come straight to my Smart phone, 
so I can respond very quickly.

Recharge Wrap-up: No Tesla Gigafactory deal with California, BMW i3 recalled

Thu, Sep 4 2014

Before the Nevada announcement was hinted at, a deal to incentivize a Tesla Gigafactory in California fell through. Tesla was looking for around $500 million in incentives, which the California Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development was willing to offer in tax breaks along with making the permit and environmental processes easier. According to Senator Ted Gaines, there still remained "a gap between what Tesla wanted and what California was willing to offer," the contents of which were undisclosed. California could still be chosen for another of Tesla's battery plants, should those ever materialize. Read more at The Desert Sun. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) will consider allowing a bit of compliance flexibility to its Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) regulations for some automakers. CARB will hold a hearing to discuss giving intermediate volume manufacturers (IVMs) - carmakers that do between 4,501 and 60,000 new vehicle sales in the state - some leniency catching up to the larger manufacturers when it comes to clean vehicle production. The ZEV regulation changes take into account the amount of revenue IVMs have available for developing the cars, particularly plug-in hybrids. Read more at Green Car Congress or see the notice from CARB here. Certain units of the BMW i3 are subject to an airbag recall. For cars built March 31, 2014, the passenger airbag inflator may have been assembled incorrectly, which could keep it from deploying when needed. Owners will be notified by BMW, and the problem will be fixed for free. The recall also affects certain 2014 Mini Cooper models. Learn more at the NHTSA website. The Renault-Nissan Alliance is providing 200 electric vehicles to telecommunications company Orange in France. The cars, which will include the Nissan Leaf, Nissan e-NV200, Renault ZOE and Renault Kangoo ZE, will be used mostly for carsharing. Through the program, Orange employees can book a car for work or personal travel using a smartphone. The Alliance will also help Orange install charging stations for the new cars. The addition of the EVs to the fleet will help Orange achieve its goal of reducing its carbon footprint by 20 percent by 2020. Read more in the press release, below. Jianghuai Automobile Company (JAC) is delivering its first 100 EVs to the US. The shipment is part of a larger order of 2,000 cars to be sold by GreenTech Automotive in the US market.

2022 New York Auto Show Roundup | All the reveals, reviews, pictures

Fri, Apr 15 2022

NEW YORK — In case you missed it, the New York Auto Show took place this year after being canceled in both 2020 and 2021 due to Covid. A lot of manufacturers showed up in force, but not everybody did. No matter, we were there, and we brought you news, photos and scoops from the floor throughout the show. All of our New York-related stories can be found at our central hub here, but if youÂ’d rather just get a small taste of everything in a quick and digestible format, keep scrolling. 2023 Kia Telluride and its new X-Pro trim Kia revealed the TellurideÂ’s first major refresh at New York, and it makes the three-row crossover a little bit more desirable without screwing up what we liked about it before. ThereÂ’s a new X-Line and X-Pro trim for someone who might want a little more off-road capability, and a number of tech improvements. Most notably, a newly-designed dash features new and bigger screens. 2023 Hyundai Palisade The TellurideÂ’s sister car from Hyundai was treated to a similar refresh. Like the Telluride, Hyundai gave the Palisade a slightly revised look, a new off-road trim (called XRT in the PalisadeÂ’s case), more tech inside and a new dash design with full-width air vents. If we had to choose, weÂ’re a little more impressed with the TellurideÂ’s refresh, as a number of us on staff actually prefer the pre-refresh Palisade styling over the new one. 2023 Jeep Wagoneer L and Grand Wagoneer L This one was inevitable. Jeep revealed the longer, roomier versions of its Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in New York, and theyÂ’re designated with an “L” at the end of their names. Total length grows by a foot, and the wheelbase goes up by 7 inches versus the standard Wagoneer models. Jeep has essentially allocated all this extra room to the cargo area, as it now offers a staggering 44.2 cubic-feet of space behind the third row. Besides the L, Jeep announced that its new Hurricane inline-six engine would find its first home in the Wagoneer. Efficiency gets a small boost, and power is more than sufficient at either 420 horsepower (standard output) or 510 horsepower (high-output version) from the twin-turbo I-6. Chrysler Airflow Graphite Concept The Stellantis party continues with Chrysler and its slightly revised Airflow. Re-styled for the New York market after initially debuting at CES in Las Vegas, the Airflow Concept gets new paint, changed accent colors, a slightly changed interior design and a new interpretation of the Chrysler logo.

Preserving automotive history costs big bucks

Wed, 29 Jan 2014



$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
