Introducing: The Meanest Looking Custom Built Skyline R34 GTR 1/7th Scale Remote Control RC Car

Passion, It's the thing that drives us to achieve. The push we feel to dare to dream something, ideal, and then manifest that vision into reality. For anyone who's ever fallen head over heels into an engine bay, or body work, or getting your car track ready, YOU KNOW that feeling that drives you to customize and make things as you feel they should be. Your intuition is second to none.  RC Car Skyline GTR R34 Custom Built Remote Control Car This GTR is no different from any of the other incredible cars featured on this site ( just look around; there's red ones , blue ones , silver ones , white ones , black ones ) - except for one, small, detail. - It's 1/7th the size! You wouldn't be able to fit inside it, but it still rips around like a GTR should, and is a whole lot of fun to drive I'm sure, and the customization on this build is phenomenal.  Nissan Skyline GTR RC Car Rear End Spotted on the RC sub, user XJuggernaut101 shared their build story with us of ho...

Nissan Skyline For Sale

Yes, it's true. Another legendary Skyline is up for sale. This 1993 R32, Nissan Skyline GTS-T comes from Montreal, Canada - where the 15 year delay period opened up, some cars got in, registered and plated all before the government changed the law to 25 years - so you can't really have one of these UNLESS, it's one which has already been registered and plated in the province of Quebec which is being sold, then it's a simple transfer of ownership. As would be the case here, this was plated long before any of that fuzz.

NelsonMX built this car from the ground up, and did a damn good job of it too! I have personally been for a ride in this car a number of times and it is just an incredible machine. One of the best things is how clean the car is and the sound of that engine and turbo. This car was with us on our Skyline Track Day Video Shoot. We also ran a feature showing a full tour of the NelsonMX facilities, some of the beautiful work being done with Carbon Fiber and Vinyl @ NelsonMX.
Below is the advert for the sale, for anyone considering a Skyline (anywhere in the world) do not overlook this opportunity to snatch this up, you won't find anything more certain than this. He even detailed out a great checklist of everything you'll want to check when buying a car like this.

General issues with skylines;
Now i'm sure a lot of you are unaware with the issues involved with owning a Skyline. Maintenance wise, if they're built and maintained properly, they'll last forever. Otherwise, it's good to keep note of these issues when purchasing;

- Fuel pump - primes ok?
Is brand new

- Coil packs - misfires at high rpm?
Are new - .8 ohms (Over .10 ohms suffer from misfiring)

- Burning oil - Goo on the bumper is from turbo seals or rings (Blowby)
Rings and motor are refreshed with a current 10,000 km. Turbo is brand new. Does not burn one ML of oil, and there is 0 blow by. Blow by can be seen when a catch can fills up after long durations of use, usually hard abuse. I do not run a catch can because venting to atmosphere allows better flow without worrying about clogs in the lines, as well, it saves weight. There is ZERO blow by on this motor

- Bearings/bushings/steering slack - are there knocks and steering issues?
No, they're all brand new. All bushings have been replaced with OEM units

- Premature tire wear or alignment issues
Alignment was done in May 2011. All spec sheets will be provided with the car

- Rust
Most of these vehicles are beaten, tracked or drifted. This car has always been meticulously taken care of. There are no scratches, dents, or dings underneath, and there is not one spot of rust on the exterior, interior or underbody of this vehicle, including wheel wells.

- Glass - difficult to attain
Rear windshield is fine. Quarters are fine. Pass/driver windows are fine. Front windshield is new (Replaced last year) and has the built in antenna

- Idle hunting issues are common for R32's
This car has NO electronic idle control. NO AACV, NO IACV. This means the throttle at idle is controlled by the ECU warm up tables. The throttle body has been calibrated to allow enough air at startup to maintain a flawless idle of 900rpm. Once warmed up, it runs at 1100 rpm steady. NO idle hunting. NO stalling issues. NO sputtering. The TPS is zeroed off at this opening to allow full function of range (.48v to 3.99v)

- Brakes - need replacement?
Are brand new Hawk HPS Pads on blank Brembo rotors. Need zero work/maintenance. All 4 calipers were rebuilt by me personally and work as if they were new. All lines are stainless. Using ATE Superblue highquality brake fluid.

All sound deadening and interior has been removed, but all interior trim and seats ARE available.

Car weight - 1090KG with a full tank of gas - no cage.
