Vehicle Description
In 1995, Nissan decided to make a return to Le Mans racing in the
GT1 class with the R33 GTR LM, with only one ever being produced.
The following year, Nissan decided to commemorate the car and their
return to Le Mans by producing 188 R33 GTR LM Limited editions. The
LM Limited received N1 front bumper ducts, N1 bonnet spoiler and a
N1 carbon rear wing as standard. The only color available was BT2
Championship Blue, which was also specific to the LM Limited, only
ever being used on the 188 cars produced. This 1996 Nissan Skyline
GT-R R33 LM Limited's 2.6-liter twin-turbo has been the recipient
of a few modifications from HKS, with a boost controller, turbo
timer, intakes and a Hi-Power cat-back exhaust. In addition to
those modifications, the footwork of the car has been altered with
R34 GTR front lower control arms and TEIN Flex Z coilovers. The car
has recently received a full fuel system service, spark plugs, oil
change with new filter and new HKS air filter elements. The engine
is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission feeding an
all-wheel-drive system. The engine bay has most of the original
plating in near-perfect condition, including having the throttle
linkage and the valve covers repainted in a Metallic Pink color as
a part of the HKS touches. Moving to the interior, a signature from
the owner of HKS can be found on the passenger-side sun visor,
along with the controls for the HKS turbo timer and boost
controller. The shift knob has also been replaced with a Pivot
Super quick knob. The factory climate control remains and functions
flawlessly. 118,082 actual kilometers (73,372 miles).
