No unless you wanna got to cailf.... then you would have to wait for a few months to find on for sale. I live in Colorado Springs and i have seen more Lamborghinis and *******s for sale then i have seen Skylines. You could build a replica i have seen an R33 my favorite model however if you get your hands on a Legand or sliva and get your hands on some real Skyline lights you could mold them on to the car. But however If it surpasses 10k dont do it buy a real one.why are repilcas so expensive?!

www.bonsaicars.com/" target="_blank">http://www.bonsaicars.com/Making a kit of this car is worthless on a Legend, and the Silvia still isn't a Skyline. It sounds like you'd like to buy a real one, so go to the link in this post.

Thanks for the link there are lots of people who are going to want to look at that. A friend of mine seen the Skyline and RX7 from 2fast2furious in person and he said they looked a little smaller to be a real Skyline like the wheel base didnt match the orginal. I have got a few street race DvDs and the only one that i have seen was a horrble Skyline replica done on a Maxima god that was horrble some people in the import world can be ridiculous! with the Lamborghini doors on there civics and sometimes you dont even know what kind of car it is but thats why i like kitcars. If i was you i would buy an Infinti G35 why? thats a Skyline R35 in Japan and the only diffrence is the Skyline would have a body kit and diffrent tail lamps and all you would need is the Skyline badge saying it is a Skyline. and by adding a twin turbo system some people couldnt tell the diffrence if they knew what it was. why are repilcas so expensive?!

If you can wait a year or so..... the rumor is that the new skyline, Based on the G35 coupe, will be coming to America. The displacment is supposed to go down to 3.0, and I image that means boost! Can anyone verify this? I have read several articles but none say for sure if this is fact or fiction. I really hope it makes its way to our shores. Also it might be a good point to make, skylines are not street legal(you probably already know this0. You can buy as many as you want, but if it is not already on american soil, you might find your car has been seized at the shipyard. If all you want is the engine you can fit one directly into a 240sx, good luck trying to make it AWD though. Your rx8 is a 2.6, not a 1.3, now argue with me about hp per litre. Paul C |

skylines arnt street legal... unless...
u pay motorx to legalize it and pay out the @ss, something like $20-30,000 over porce of the car, they have to replace the glass, bumpers, speedo, and all that jazz. Motorx is the only company that is allowed to do this cuz they paid for all the testing and to wreck all the cars they tested.and i think you can get a skyline here as a "show and track car" iv never heard of any one seizing a car for sure, but its possible. matt '96 Jaguar XJ6(burgundy)

Paul walker has a few Skylines and they look street legal to me with the roll cage and many other mods done to it. I have seen a normal R32 driving around in the springs no mods nothing done to it. All stock thats not including all the other cars that are illegal that i see driving like those Supras with a street blown engine making more than 1200! and its only made for the dragstrip. There are many cars that shouldnt be legal on the street but i see them all the time. The best place to see tons of illegal cars is at the street races. Almost every car there shouldnt be legal at all. I dont see how a skyline wouldnt be street legal.why are repilcas so expensive?!

they arnt street legal cuz they dont meet the USDOT regulations, they were built with a 5mph bumper USDOT requires a 10mph, and the glas isnt USDOT spec, so MOTORX R&D'd these news items and makes them, they look stock but just are safer, and then are able to be legalized, if u see one on the streets then its more then likely street legal, cuz it cant carry a US plate if its not legal and doesnt have liability insurance. also im not 100% sure, but i dont think they meet emmission standards, so MOTORX had to develop parts to replace also. thats y LEGAL skylines are so expensive, cuz its so hard to get them legal, and only one comapny has the thumbs up from the US govn't to do so, MOTORX.Matt '96 Jaguar XJ6(burgundy)
