This 1972 Nissan Skyline 2000 GT was recently imported to the US after being purchased by the seller from a longtime Japanese collector and enthusiast. It has been modified in GT-R style with fender flares, badges, front and rear spoilers, and RS Watanabe alloy wheels. Power comes from a built 2.0-liter L20 inline-six that is equipped with triple Mikuni carburetors and mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Other modifications include coilover suspension with monoball top mounts, a stainless exhaust, and a clutch-type limited-slip differential. A service was recently performed as detailed below, and the seller has added approximately 500 kilometers during his ownership. Described to run and drive well, this Skyline is now being offered in California with a few Japanese inspection reports and a clear South Dakota title.

The car has received an exterior repaint, and the base of rear window appears to have a rust bubble touched up. A few paint chips are are also noted on one side of the rear window base, and the interior of the trunk is pictured in the gallery below with the spare removed.

Coilovers and monoball top mounts have been added along with 15″ RS Watanabe wheels, measuring 8 and 10.5″ in width. Advan tires are mounted, and the seller notes a inverted dent on hood from an impact with the strut tower bar.

The right-hand drive interior has been modified with a GT-R sport steering wheel and shift knob. The power windows and the stock radio work, but the rear quarter windows are slow to open towards the bottom of their travel.

A one-piece driver’s bucket seat has been added as can be seen above, and the odometer is said to currently show 69,500 kilometers (~43k miles), about 500 of which have been added by the seller over the last few months.

The 2.0-liter L20 inline-six features forged high compression pistons, triple Mikuni sidedrafts, an equal length header, and stainless exhaust. A clutch type limited-slip differential has also been added, and the car was recently serviced with fresh fluids and new spark plugs. The motor is built with increased compression 10.5:1, and is said to run well on pump gas.

Additional photos of the underside are included in the gallery below, showing the floors, spare tire well, and exhaust. An undercoating has been applied according to the seller, and included documentation consists of a few Japanese annual inspection reports.
