Nissan Skylines are quickly becoming some of the most sought-after collectibles imported from Japan. This one owner 1993 R32 GTS-T Type-M comes complete with a full service history. This is a proper sports coupe with its iconic styling, substantial drivetrain, and delightful driving experience. There is no question as to why this is a true Japanese Classic sports car of the 90s. Exterior styling for this R32 stays true to its original form and is the body is finished in a fresh coat Nissan's pretty Red Pearl Metallic (AH3). Accented by a set of factory rainguards, it's in good condition aside from some normal dings and chips associated with normal use. Notable repairs include a dent in the right quarter panel and door, and have been done very well. Recently serviced and legally imported this Type M is offered with a mere 148K verified and documented miles. Sporty, collectible, and a pleasure to drive this R32 Skyline is a true Japanese Classic.

Inside the cabin of the GTS-T coupe is in good condition overall and it seems to have been cared for in Japan in a prior life. The dash does suffer from the infamous dash bubble found on the driver's side cluster housing as well as above the passenger side glove box which is common to see in these. The good news is that no cracks are present and the bubble is smaller than many of these we retail. The seats are trimmed in a soft, gray durable cloth. They are supportive on long drives and lack any major rips, stains or tears. The door cards, headliner, and carpets are in fine shape but the plastics on the tops of the doors do show some accelerated wear from UV exposure. Other amenities include an adjustable steering column and power windows, locks, and mirrors. Even the power-folding function works which is rare. These all work as they should as allow for this to be a much better daily driver. Digital climate control is standard which currently blows cold a/c for the remaining months of Summer. We also wanted to note that the OEM shift boot and emergency brake boot show signs of age on the black leather but don't affect the functionality of either one. We even have the original owner's manual still in the glovebox. Overall this original interior is clean, spacious, and nicely equipped for a car of this age, and dare we even say comfortable.

The heartbeat of this platform is Nissan's 2.0L RB20DET turbo motor, which is fresh off an oil and filter service. This straight-six fires up easily thanks to a new 12v battery and our techs have installed a new engine air filter installed to help this six breath efficiently. Paired with the RB is a 5-speed manual transmission the engine is responsive and more refined than many of our sporty offerings. Power is sent to the rear wheels and the coupe accelerates impressively. The gearing is appropriate for US interstates and the gearbox rewards those who love to row through the gears. We performed a transmission fluid flush to save the next owner the expense. The brakes are responsive thanks to a set of new front brake pads we replaced here stateside. The nice thing about the near 50/50 weight distribution is upon hitting the brakes, the front end doesn't drive, and the whole car squats down for better balance. The stock suspension handles road imperfections with confidence and our shop has refreshed it with a set of newly installed HICAS arms. Four new tires have been installed at all corners to help keep the power on the road. These quiet down the ride nicely and should last for tens of thousands of miles to come.
