Vintage Nissan "Kenmeri" (Ken and Mary) Skyline with a modern RB26 GT-R engine shoehorned into it.

The only R32 Skyline I've been in was a GTS and it didn't have an RB26...🙁

A buddy of mine built a a pretty well sorted RB26 and put it back in his R32 GT-R







He sold it a few years back though.

Heh no, I never drove it. I have a thing about driving other peoples cars. Even if it is something I REALLY want to drive.
Before the R32, he had a Lexus SC 300 with a 1JZ swap which I did end up driving, only because I was forced to lol.
But it was only moving it in the parking lot..

A video of it shooting fireballs lol:

And another picture of the R32 I found on Flickr when looking for the picture of the SC

I'm a diehard Porsche guy but there is no way I would ever choose any other car over an F40.
That is my grail car.
If overnight, I became super duper wealthy, that would be the first car I buy hands down.

Good to see some 'actual' automotive pornography - so many mundane, unattractive and uninteresting cars lately. I see it as quite disrespectful to a thread originator when the intended theme is completely disregarded. Grrrrrr.

Well why don't you show us some "'actual'" porn then, instead of just complaining about the lack of what you consider to be porn, in your opinion....

Hope these meet your standards..... They're Japanese so possibly they won't😉
