All Skylines were imports, they were never released in the UK. Early R32's (the boxy ones with silly square light between the two rear circular ones) were bought into Europe in very small numbers, but we had to make do with 200SX's. aka baby skylines.

I went for a test drive in an R34 GT-T (2.5l single turbo, rwd) before I bought the GTS, and almost got it. But I had a change of heart and went for something that had better bang-for-bucks capability.

Still, if I had the money, I'd love an R34 GT-R. All-dinging, dancing, 400bhp AWD monster with an amazing on-board computer system.

Think there's a 1,200bhp monster version floating around on eBay for the best part of £75k as we speak if anyone's interested and has more spare pennies than me, lol.

You really shouldn't do that, no plate is what you should have for going to SVA. In theory you can be pulled - though I you could probably talk your way out of a ticket.

Thats not technically true, I don't remember the numbers but I Middlehurst Nissan were the only official UK importer for the UK and they imported (something like) 20 R32 GTR's, 30 R33 GTR's and 40 R34 GTR's.

The GTS, GTST, GTS4 and GTT were never officially imported.

All jap grey imports do need an SVA/IVA test.
