I suspect this car has other modifications

EXTERIOR:
Front bumper has 3 cracks. A little bit obvious, might become worse soon, see photos
Right rear fender minor dent
Rear bumper minor scratch
Paint looks nice, good polish and shiny, like new
Window rubbers good
Minor paint fade to door mirrors
Windows good
Headlights and tail lights good
GTR rear wing colour match is good
GTR front bumper add on part is slightly loose
Overall condition is pretty good, but front bumper has damage

INTERIOR:
Drivers seat slight wear marks
Aftermarket seatbelt, can be easily removed
Driver's door trim has scratches and wear in normal R33 place
Audio head unit removed
Handbrake boot has wear and is torn
Shift knob has wear and wrinkles, doesn't look nice
Roof trim has slight smoking mark but there is no smoking smell
Some wires loose under dashboard
Rear floor mats slight stains
Trunk trim slightly dirty

UNDERBODY:
Chassis rail has minor bend, not serious one
No rust
No leaks
Exhaust looks like aftermarket right from turbo back
Surface rust to Tein suspension
Kakimoto sticker on muffler is burned
Brake pads look like reasonably new
Jacking points slightly bent from careless jacking, but not very bad
Overall no problems

ENGINE AND MECHANICALS:
Timing belt has been changed at 93,000km in 2005
Starts ok
Idling ok
Water temp ok
Oil pressure ok
Accessories and electrics ok
Transmission feels good. Maybe short shifter
Fluids look ok, oil is new
Slight oil stain near front rocker cover near cam cover, not a problem
Wiring for HID headlights is a bit careless, lots of wires that should be cleaned up
Driving test done at 60kph, power is good, no problems. Feels like maybe bigger turbo, quite fast

OVERALL COMMENT:
Good condition car, aside from front bumper body is very good, no real problems
Interior condition nice, just needs some cleaning
One owner car and it has been maintained well
Ex-owner joined Skyline Club in Japan, then he got family so he changed car to van. Actually he didn't want to sell it so I have strong feeling car was well looked after
