1998 R34 Skyline Coupe

SOLD

Stock #6252

Stock #6252Once forbidden fruit here in the states, and now a car show parking lot staple, Nissan's Skyline has certainly paid its dues, and some might say the R34 coupe is the best of the bunch! Our 1998 GTT is a fine unit, finished in Cloud White (QM1) with some slick OEM optional Altia aero. Spanning the front, sides and rear, the OEM plus aesthetic is strictly business, and the 120k miles on the clock indicate this one was pampered in a prior life as well. Save for some small paint imperfections, and a noted replacement of the right front fender. there's nearly nothing to complain about, and subtle privacy tint and a factory rear wing ties everything together. A legend from the tarmac to the big screen, we couldn't be happier with our first R34 coupe offering, and it goes without saying, this is one heck of a Japanese Classic to own!Completely redesigned for its 10th generation, the R34's cockpit is about as close to a modern commuter as you can find at our dealership. Durable materials, safety features, and a full slate of power amenities make this coupe easy to own, and the condition speaks for itself. Upholstered in a two tone sport mesh, the seats stand up to normal wear and tear like a champ and show no discernible defects. The matching door card upholstery is also in good nick, as are the carpets and headliner above. The dash houses dual SRS airbags, which came standard on this chassis, and the center stack has both digital climate control and premium OEM audio on tap for when you need it. Trudging into the spring and summer months, cold A/C is at the ready and is freshly serviced so you can enjoy the drive from day one, and an optional power moonroof also tilts and unfurls rapidly. The driver benefits from a tilt adjustable steering column, and power windows, power folding mirrors, and locks make daily use a walk in the park. Save for an inoperable OEM gauge pack and some wear to the hard plastics, the cabin is hard to critique as a whole. In fact, we even retained the factory carpet mats to help you feel good about your classic JDM investment!Bolstered with NEO VVL technology, and fresh off a comprehensive recent service, the RB25DET under the bonnet is the stuff of legends. We replaced the 12v battery to aid ignition, and flushed out all the old lubricant with fresh oil and a new filter. We also preemptively changed out the fuel pump and filter to keep your petrol flowing freely. We were intent on keeping all the oil internal, we changed the valve cover gasket up top and this RB is running right as rain now! The I-6 revs happily to redline and the factory slushbox was ditched in favor of a much more responsive manual transmission. Swapped with all new components, the five speed grabs gears with ease and power is thrown rearward with haste. The suspension feels planted overall, and the ride quality is comfortable and easy to control. The ABS brakes hold strong and the power steering is feather weight to boot. The last line of defense between you and the pavement, we wrapped the factory alloys in fresh all season rubber. Attractive, comfortable, and reliable, they'll deliver plenty of grip in all conditions for tens of thousands of miles to come!*California Residents: In order to register a Grey Market vehicle in the state of California then it will have to be made CARB compliant first.
