The blue supra and the black liner are both utterly devine.

That Black R34 IS Fab

[Steve_Evil]

I recognise the background in the Skyline shot, that would be the cowshed home of the MK Dons!

[tuttle]

Still quite partial to this '33.

Good thread, here's a few of my favourites:

Oooh..Z-cars with proper retro deep dish casserole alloys!

[Twincam16]

Take the design for the 1980s Tyrrel F1 car, send to Japan, to Dome, to tune for the road, get an Italian to design it, arm it with a ridiculous price tag and a production run you could count on one hand.

Aim at Modena, set to kill

I give you the Jiotto Caspita

Neil That black skyline is awsome! when I get bored of my current car a black R34 is going on the list.



anyone know what make wheels they are? look like speedline maybe?

Blue wheel nuts are a nice touch

Volk TE37

[knight]

With Nismo wheel nuts @ 80 quid a set

[Neil_H]

The Skyline was for sale last year, that's when I whipped the photo, the seller was after £35k. It has upgraded Brembos, they're the same kind as fitted to the Enzo apparently.

As mentioned the wheels are Volk TE-37s by Rays in bronze. I'm planning to get a set like that on my car later this year! Only 17s though, not 19s I think the nuts are also by Rays.
