Last Friday (17/6) I took a flight from Stockholm to Gothenburg and was picked up by a member of www.skyline.se in a black Nissan Skyline R33 GTS.

We drove off to the center of Gothenburg near Ullevi and waited for something devine to happen.

And there it was!
turning round the corner was a black S15 Spec-R..... My black S15 :D

A chatted a bit with Kent Terry of Jap-City and Jens who will get the car registered here in Sweden, and the whole time I looked like this :D

Had a 470km drive home in partly heavy rain and took it really easey.

I've been driving the car the whole weekend now and it does turn alot of heads, being the 2:nd S15 in Sweden.

It drives wonderfully and has a very linear power curve. You just press the gas pedal and it flies away :)

I want to thank everybody on this forum for help and support.
And especially Kieran and Greg for letting me borrow the parts for the ESVA.

I'm now officially very happy :D

Got no new pics yet. Maybe later (have no camera).

best regards
Paul of Sweden

Kieran,
OK. I'll have a look at the boost meter later and try to work it out. :)

Nicely,
I don't think we have any Fjords in Sweden :confused:
Norway has plenty of them though. :D

I took some pics yesterday evening. But they turned out like a bucket of poo. :hurl:
It was in a garage with the flash on. Not really worth taking up space on the internet ;)

If the weather is fine tomorrow there may be a little meet with some Skyliners. Could take some piccies then or let someone else take some and put them here. I'm not to good with a camera :wack:

YakoZan, You were on the ferry with me mate! I jumped off at KristianSand. I couldn't beleive my eyes when I saw a Mint Spec-R in the lane to the left of me going on the ferry, I had to have a closer look ;) First one I've ever seen up close. I was the Burgundy S13, Packed to the maX! Don't know if you saw me thou.

That wasn't me. :wave:
It was Kent Terry of Jap-City who helped me get the car registered in the UK.
He also brought the car over to Sweden. Great guy :thumbs:

I was in Gothenburg waiting to pick it up. :nod:
