I saw this silver R33 Skyline in a gas station about a 1/2 hour north of Peterborough last summer. When I approached the guy to tell him what a nice car it was, and ask how he got it in Canada he pretty much told me to fuck off… I snapped these pictures anyways…fuckin douche bag…lol ![http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff140/nollieK/Picture012.jpg](http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff140/nollieK/Picture012.jpg) ![http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff140/nollieK/Picture010.jpg](http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff140/nollieK/Picture010.jpg) ![http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff140/nollieK/Picture009.jpg](http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff140/nollieK/Picture009.jpg) ---

that is one sweet ride what a d-bag though if he didn’t want attention…especially from enthusaists…why buy an r33? are those dealer plates? can’t remember what colour they’re suppose to be… maybe the car isn’t his, and he’s trying to hide that fact by being a douche buy gawddamnit…that’s a clean ride ---

its illegal, the r33 GTR is not allowed for another 3 years but you can get a gtst R33 now, if you want to get one into the country there is ways of doing it but it invovles alot of paper work etc or you can illegally import it as he probably did by your story of him telling you to fuck off. ---

I wants his wheels. BTW I don’t believe those are Canadian plates. They have run out of 6 digit plates, we are well into 7 digits now. Edit: It almost looks like you can make out ‘Ontario’ on the top of the plate so I’m confused. It’s a possibility that they are dealer plates and dealer plates are yellow. ---

Old dealer plates were yellow, new issued ones are white with red lettering. They’re all still 6 digit plates. ---

I’m almost positive I saw something like this in some online classifieds or something. This was 6 months ago probably. ---

He has been trying to sell it down south for a little over eight months now if i do recall. Saw it on ebay last spring early summer. Definatley illegal I can even remember the write up on this car. All in all still a wicked ride but I wonder why the government is making it harder to import cars. Prime example here. I wonder what would happen if he got in an accident with this machine?? ---

if it wasnt for an ugly front bumper, ugly wing and ugly sunken wheels with huge dirty wheel gap i think that it could be a nice car. slap some nice 17x10 BBS’s with nice offset all around, get a non gay bumper (i think that one is oem but i hate it) and replace the wing with a less retarded one i think it would definitely turn some heads. ---

I’m assuming thats illegal, and all you need is a cop thats played Gran Turismo a few times to start scratching his head. You don’t exactly fly under the radar with a GT-R.
