Have the waffles melted?!?!

Post by frozenwaffles »

Hi guys, well my time as an fto owner is up. Insuarnce have written off my car and its good night for my 1997 GPvR. she was awesome. my rebirth into the performance car market will however be in the form of another car. my love for ftos will never waiver as i still think they are the best looking car! but one thing the fto has given me is a greater appreciation for performance cars and as a result it time for TURBO, but practical and cost effective turbo. So a skyline it is, R33 GTST Series 3 to be precise...
So what does this mean for the waffles???
We personally i believe my knowledge of ftos grew very fast as my passion for the car was/is intense. i still think i can offer great advice and assistance to this club and continue in its comraderie. hopefully you guys wont shun me even though i will be a skyline owner...
plus since i havent been on a cruise yet, i would love to meet some of you i have yet to meet and enjoy the great day!

:lol: :lol: :lol: at the rate that FTO owner either getting a R33 as a 2nd car or just swapping to it, this site could be "Skyline! The ex FTO Ower Club" by end of next yr :twisted:

you found a Series 3 gtst r33? must be a rare model I have never heard of.

S1 R33s started in 94 until 95 and the S2 in 1996 to 98.

i always thought it was a concept car too.. well then what did I see 8O

I drove past it and people were crowded around it, i got a good glimpse of the back of it and it looked a lot like the R35 cos it was a car i'd never seen before and i thought it was a R35 on display there maybe... now i wanna no what it was :?

I guess khunjeng & Bennoz already pointed out, what you saw is a V35 GT350 Coupe, its also know in the U.S as the Infinity Q35 Coupe, its basically a 4 seats version of the 350z here. Just like 350z they comes in two form, standard & premium.

I was going to get one last yr, but i end up with something else.
