Been painting my R33 Skyline

After removing the rear subframe and fuel tank to weld up the jacking points/subframe mount points I have been working on making it look nice, This is a landrover metallic red. Still got the front end bolt-ons to spray like doors, wings, bonnet, bumper etc.

I posted here because I am looking for a project car community and wondered if anyone knows of one or will be starting one :) Thanks.

i didn't know there were skylines in the UK. amazing

They are quite popular here and have been for years, Driving on the left makes us more readily buy up JDM stuff. You don't see them often on the roads but there are still plenty of club meets etc.

all the writing on the labels is in japanese though innit? no problems with that?

No problem, People have translated them all, I even have the Nissan workshop manual in English.

Do you have to wait a certain number of years before importing?

Not as far as I know, This car came over at about 5 years old in about 1999 or 2000, Somebody else owned it for a bit then I bought it in about 2004 IIRC. I don't think there are any such restrictions here in the UK. Hence the JDM scene we have, But I would have to check to be certain.
