spotted this parked infront of my work place
is this a real r33 or a just really niced mod 240sx, did anyone else see this car on the road today? i figured since it had not license plate so it seems kinda worthy for a post.

Looks real, but couple things are fishy. 1. The side markers aren't the same as all the JDM R33 GTR's I've seen, this car's markers are huge and flush I think. Real JDM GTR markers look like JDM subaru markers, little orange markers sticking off the body. 2. The car doesn't have the correct OEM badges, except for what appears to be one GTR badge on the passenger's side. 3. The spoiler is not an oem GTR spoiler, and frankly I dun like it 
.
My guess, is that either someone with too much money owns an R33 from Motorex's short list, and wants to run an ugly rear spoiler, front grille, and front bumper, OR.....someone has an R33 Skyline GT-S or GT-T, and put a couple small GTR badges on it to make people think he is driving a "Godzilla".

I saw that guy crossing the bay bridge yesterday around 10am. I hadn't noticed him until I heard his bov. I don't know if it was a coincidence or not but there was a modded g35 and 350z a couple cars behind him.

Looks real to me, but I agree its probably a GT-S or GT-T with some GT-R add-ons. I think the closest Skyline replica I remember would be that Bomex widebody S14 with the R34 headlights and taillights.
