Talking So...as i was driving, i came across....

The skyline owner was a nice guy, saw me and gave me a thumbs up. He told me that he had his car for about 4 months and that it took motorex a year to convert.

The van on the other hand....

yeah... I saw him pass me up on the san mateo bridge. It was weird seeing a guy pass me on the left and that is sitting in the right side seat. Fortunately he had a fasttrak pass, or paying the toll would have been a pain (reaching across the left "shotgun" seat)

Cool Odyssey. I know most Odyssey owners that have cool vans but have never seen this one.
May I ask what freeway/area you spotted this van ?

I saw that odyssey heading 101 north. I forget exactly where but it may have been near San Mateo.

I was going to take a picture...someone owns a gunmetal r32 or r33 ( i don't know enough about them to know which but i know it wasn't the r34 cause that's a widebody) and he parks it on ocean street in san francisco. he has a bunch of carbon fiber parts on the car like a lip, car has no wing which is just total sleeper and i didn't realize it was a skyline at first and thought it was just some dude with a nice bodykit but it's real deal right hand drive. it's a real looker but total sleeper and you have to know the car to realize it's a powerhouse.
