Just wondering really. If say the skyline had been stripped. Is there anything on the Shell or Cage that would indicate it is your one.. something another skyline wouldnt have?

As a whole it maybe uselfull for the forum to know these unique bits, so everyone is on the look out. There are alot of r32's about, making urs known to people of its inperfections would maybe help us/you to find it easier. Instead of people acussin others with r32's, plus I may have come upon something but need a way of noticing its tell tail signs.

been quite impressed with other people generosity in the face of this....

Fee was offered a 220+bhp track prepped honda powered Elise to race.
An R32 GTR
A punto turbo - maybe a joke
And now this eve a guy is trying to lend me his R32 GTR.... its got a blown HG and he's banned. Sounds like he's lookign to get it fixed for free, but its not something i'd consider to be a cheap fix..... getting the shit thrashed out of the car on track :/

Would be a shame to miss out on TA because of some crook stealing your car

Im still keeping an Eye out, im in & around Edinburgh every week day & looking for anything skyline shaped.

Hope you find it, though as time goes on looks less likely

why trackers are a must. Its a shame you have to do it though but unfortunatly its a must. worst thing is i bet it all gets sold to somewho who will pay nothing for it for a bag of crack. Inless its been pinched to use thae parts on thier own motor

trackers are not the be all and end all...

Easily jammed, easily broken if found...

How do they run? Are they battery powered? as the car never really has/had battery power.

Considering it for the next car.... but its not something i want
