The owner has listed Tommykaira R #357 on eBay. It's one of 400 total R33 Skyline GT-R-badged Tommykaira Rs, which were sold as complete vehicles through Tommykaira. This one doesn't sport the optional widebody kit that was available (and widely purchased, according to <em>Sport Compact Car</em>), making it even more of a rarity. It's fully federalized and recently laid down 401 AWHP at a dyno session. This Tommykaira Skyline is is the only one of its kind in the US, and it's a complete street banshee. There isn't one of us here at Autoblog who doesn't wish he had an extra $93K lying around. You can view the auction listing <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1997-Tommykaira-GT-R-Rarest-Skyline-in-US-350-240_W0QQitemZ140140405514QQihZ004QQcategoryZ6392QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem">here</a>, and if you'd like to read the original <em>Sport Compact Car</em> piece, <a href="http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/features/0502scc_skyline_tommykaira_r/index.html">click here</a>. (The owner reprinted the <em>SCC </em>article in the eBay listing to use as a vehicle description). If we had this car, we'd never have to play Gran Turismo again.<br /><br />Thanks to Johnnyichiban for the tip!<br /><br />[Source: eBay]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/07/26/ebay-find-of-the-day-tommykaira-r-357/">eBay Find of the Day: Tommykaira R #357</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Thu, 26 Jul 2007 16:58:00 EST.
