 This is one very special and highly collectable Nissan Skyline GTR, It is the LM Limited edition with the LM = Le Mans.
In 1996 Nissan Motor Co. Japan released only 98 of this model to the japanese market and only 14 VSPEC's... this being a VSPEC it is extremely rare!! (I have an email from Nissan Motor Co. Japan confirming the limited production numbers)
The LM Limited was built to commemorate Nissan entering 2 R33 GTR race cars in 1995 Le Mans 24hr where the number 22 car finished 10th overall, this was incredible considering it was essentialy running the same RB26 motor and going up against supercars of that era like the Mclaren F1 GTR.

Limited Edition factory fitted extras:

Championship Blue duco (code BT2)
Carbon Fibre Rear Wing Blade
N1 Front Brake Cooling Ducts
N1 Bonnet Lip
Commemorative GT-R Decals on C-Pillars

This particular example has been kept to its original OEM stock form and presents itself like a new car. I am a Meticulous owner and have only put 1700 km's on it in the time I've owned it starting it up once a week and I try to get out for a drive atleast once a month just to make sure everything is running smooth... It really does drive like a new car.
I have used the best oils and filters to maintain this vehicle, Royal Purple and Nismo Veruspeed Oil Filter and HKS panel air filter.
I am the first registered owner in Australia and it came from Nissan Sales Co. Fukui - Japan where they completed an engine overhaul at 82k changing all belts etc. (100k service)

I will throw in all the memorabilia I have collected including the original dealers catalogue, blank GTR key, official Nissan Licensed Models.

With not many examples left in their original form this car is highly collectable and  it needs to be seen to be appreciated, it's the cleanest R33 GTR going around!

Open to reasonable offers but in no rush to sell

I Would like to see this car go to an enthusiast who will preserve it's originality

It will only appreciate in Value $$$

I will assist in transportation to Melbourne Docks, The importation process is obviously up to the prospective buyer.

*Please take note I have listed it as a 1980 year model car due to the VIN not being detected through the US ebay... Its actually 1996 year of manufacture.

VIN - BCNR33023134

Please feel free to PM me your inquiries

Thank you for looking

YouTuber TJ Smith is your singing Lyft driver in Nissan Sentra ad

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

Perhaps you've seen Nissan's latest commercial, promoting the Sentra. It's a fairly simple little spot, showing the compact's driver blaring Billy Idol's Mony Mony, singing along and encouraging other motorists to join in.
We'd have been fine had it been left at that. It's a simple commercial that shows the car with a catchy tune and smiling people. Nissan couldn't leave well enough alone, though, and has come back with this. Starring TJ Smith - the driver from the original ad and an apparent YouTube celebrity famous for the kind of thing shown in the original commercial - the new ad expands on the old, with more people, and more Mony Mony. This time round, Smith is serving as a driver for the Lyft service, who just happens to break into song with his fares in the car.
Scroll down for the full video. If you've no idea what we're talking about, we've also included the original commercial.

Nissan Micra overtaken by bees in England

Mon, 19 May 2014

A 20,000-insect-strong colony of bees attempted to turn a Nissan Micra into their new hive on Friday. The invasion happened in the English town of Southsea, a suburb of Portsmouth, and is just one of a few unexpected bee swarms in the country in recent days.
The car belonged to a student, who alerted the local council. A beekeeper was called in to move the colony of European honey bees to a safer location, on the roof of a nearby church, where they can be tended to.
Scroll down for a video of the bees in full-on swarm mode on the back of the second-gen Micra.

2015 Nissan GT-R Nismo gets official

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Behold the 2014 Nissan GT-R as dressed by Nismo and inspired by the GT3-spec race car that competed in this year's Nürburgring 24-hour race. Called the "ultimate iteration of Nissan's GT-R supercar," power goes up by 55 horsepower to 600 hp with updates like high-flow, large diameter turbos, and torque is "over 480 pound-feet," which means it's risen by at least 35 lb-ft.
Helping to keep it right-way up and pointed in the right direction are a race-tuned suspension with a larger, hollow anti-roll bar, custom Bilstein DampTronic dampers and the use of high-rigidity bolts. Outside, a new aero package from the wider front carbon bumper to the carbon rear spoiler above a longer, tapered rear bumper creates an additional 220 pounds of downforce at 186 miles per hour compared to the standard GT-R. Rumors of a 'Ring time of 7:08 abound, we'll get the truth - and we assume some video - very soon.
The bodyshell construction uses adhesive to improve rigidity, and behind those windows are carbon fiber Recaro buckets - in Europe and Japan, at least - and an Alcantara-wrapped wheel. It goes on sale next year, but you can get to know more about it right now in the press release below.
