Not Quite eBay Find of the Day: Paul Walker's 2001 R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R

With the current frenzy of Nissan GT-R information and the extreme anticipation of the next Fast and Furious installment we bring you a combination of the two with Paul Walker's R34 Nissan Skyline GT-R V Spec II. While not quite an eBay auction, the car is listed for sale at duPontREGISTRY.com. It is one of only 12 R34 GT-Rs that were brought in by the now defunct Motorex. This car is federally legalized, so no need to worry about it getting impounded, but folks in California still lose out as it does not have the necessary CARB requirements for registration.
The cost of ownership comes in at a hefty $140,000. This price encompasses enough goodies to evoke wet dreams from many a JDM fanboi. It comes fitted with parts such as a complete RB26DETT Tomei engine, twin HKS GT2530 ball bearing turbochargers, HKS intercooler, HKS F-CON V Pro engine management and a bunch of other things mostly labeled HKS or Tomei.

I would need to put down a garbage bag on the seat the first few times I would drive the car because I would pee my pants. I've dreamed of a skyline since the first gran turismo game.

If you had said 240Z or 260Z, I might have stayed with you, but 300Z? you must be on drugs.
and this beats the silva. I would tie the silva with the R32 after the R34 and 260Z.

Hmm apparently Autoblog comments don't like it when you try and make a sideways heart.
Anyway you know I heart Paul Walker...

I would probably just bribe someone a bit to get ahead on the waiting list for a new Skyline. But that is just me being practical.
