Y32 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo

I am new here and i thought i would just touch base.
I work for The Skyline Shop in Abbotsford(Vancouver) BC Canada
We are the Largest Skyline dealership in Canada.
As many of you know once a car is 15yrs old it is legal for import into Canada
Well the Y32 is now available and a new division of The Skyline Shop Inc is born.

This is not Spam we are just exited about this new car.
If you have any questions please contact me
[email]Paul@theskylineshop.com[/email]
www.theskylineshop.com

You guys will be seeing alot more of me on here ;)
I will also do a full build up thread on this car in the very near future.


This first example was built by our shop in Japan.
1991 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo
Colour "BlackBerry"
It is equipped with the VG30DET engine
IMPUL cat back exhaust
JIC FLT-AS VIP Coil overs
18x10 Work VS wheels
Custom aero kit
Custom Fender widening
Leather Interior
We will be customizing this car further here in Canada, including interior work, more custom body work and a full 5.1 Audio system.

Please Enjoy

Re: Y32 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo

Yoink!

Loverly desktop backgrounds, thankyou!!

Great cars... I do have a bit of a bias towards them though. Had a few repairs along the way which arent cheap, but overall still happy. I have to admit i never thought much of that kit when i saw it before (isnt that like one of the ones that sell for 30,000yen on Yahoo?), but on this car it looks great. Low without being silly and not as 'racy' as i thought.

Anyway, be sure to keep us updated on your work... I'm not so interested in the engine mods, but either way keep posting updates!

Re: Y32 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo

LoL, my bad... I just assumed 'skylineshop' meant it was going to be all out power with a couple of nice exterior mods...

I agree its just a comfy car to drive... When its not in the shop :(
Got mine back today after 2 weeks at the mechanic's. I just felt like hugging it, but instead i treated her to some new chrome mirrors

What are the offsets on those wheels? and how much extra room did you get with the custom rear fenders?

Re: Y32 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo

Not sure what the offset is but i have found out they are KOENIG and not WORK wheels.
We got a TON more clearance our guys actuall streched the doors as well, they did an awsome job we are very very happy.

The Body kit is actually an ADMIRATION Type 2 kit
And retails for more like $2100 CAD

http://www.admiration.ne.jp/main.html

And after looking at there site
I will be buying more from them 8).


We also have a white Gloria GT landing on the 19th
And our Mechanic has an IMPUL Pearl white one landing at the end of the month

These cars are great
We just had our cut polished and waxed today
The thing looks like glass.

Re: Y32 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo

Would love to see some closeups of the rear fenders in particular.

Sorry for the mixup with the kit... You can buy the knock-offs on Yahoo very cheap tho, not sure on quality. IMO, the two sexiest kits for the Y32 Cedric are the Evolution Exclusive V3 (http://www.evolution.co.jp/exclusive/v3/y32/index.html) and the K-break V-Lux (http://www.k-break.com/vlux/y32cedglo.html <- Best for really low cars)... But as i said, i am really impressed with how the Admiration kit looks on your car!

My car got hit a few hours after i wrote that first reply to you and now i am on the lookout for a kit... I'll see how much my insurance covers ;)

Re: Y32 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo

The car will be registered soon we are just waiting on the inspection.

I can get the early y32's as well
as long as the car is 15yrs old to the month i can bring it in.


We are pretty happy with the kit, i was a little concerned when people started calling it a knock off because we sure didnt pay for a replica.

Re: Y32 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo

Do you guys only canada-register cars you bring in specifically, or what if one were to import a car into the US, and then bring it up there after the fact...in order to then bring it back down here? (Yah, it sounds backwards but I am curious about the going the canadian route.)

Re: Y32 Nissan Gloria Gran Turismo

I'm interested to hear their response.

I do know that many R32 Skylines are being imported to Canada legally, and then moved south of the border. Its then up to the new owner to figure out how to register it in the US. It sounds like some states are easier than others (eg Florida).

I've heard some are just keeping them insured under a Canadian address. This may not cover them in the event of an accident though.

I would love to get a 140 majesta if there is a loop hole to get it registered in the US.

If you guys are interested in getting the cars into the US please give the owner a call, he takes care of the importing side of things.
