𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀

• More accessible alternative to the GT-R, with many of the same features

𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄

Whether you’re familiar with the R32 from its success in Group A touring cars, its presence in video games or its appearances on the big screen, if you’ve always had your heart set on one but haven’t kept an eye looked at values for a while then you might be in for a shock. Values of the iconic GT-R version have been on a seemingly ever-upward trajectory since they became eligible for import to the US.

Fortunately, one doesn’t have to go to the range topper to secure access to the highly-tuneable and fabulous-sounding RB straight six, developed-for-motorsport ATTESA four-wheel drive system or those distinctive rear lights. And the good news is that the GTS4 that fits all these criteria is considerably more accessible than its larger-engined sibling.

That’s just what we have here, in two door coupe form, and although there are some minor cosmetic nods to the GT-R and a few (reversible) performance enhancements, the RB20DET engine internals and ECU remain untouched. This makes it a blank canvas for your own tuning journey, or an ideal collector’s car if you wanted to keep it stock.

Imported to the UK in 2022, it’s had two owners in the UK and is in great condition. During its time in the UK, its seen comprehensive maintenance and is ready to be enjoyed in whatever way the next owner sees fit; for show, drifting, other motorsport or as a fast road car, the choice could be yours…

With much of the same hardware as the GT-R, albeit a smaller and less powerful engine, the GTS4 is arguably the next best thing. It exudes similar levels of JDM cool and the 2 litre engine can be fairly straightforwardly be tuned to similar outputs as a stock GT-R motor. This example is in fine fettle and offers its next owner a wealth of options to enjoy it.
