As a crisp young German boy who managed to get his license for a way too expensive price, I was scrolling through a car resale app with a homie of mine. After a while, he found a Skyline GT-T import for a crisp 11,000 euros (my budget is 15k, which is why he told me about it). I instantly told him no, arguing that the thing has way too many horsepower for a beginner and probably has more rust than a deserted car in the desert. He came back saying I might never find another Skyline for such a price and that, if there is major rust, it would be an easy fix, and to just imagine the flex I could do when “rolling up to a homie’s crib with a right handed Skyline.” I’m no expert on Skylines so I wanted to ask the experts on this subreddit whether my homie is right and it’s not that deep and it would be a great ride or whether I’m right and it’s way too expensive and risky. For more context its a R34 GT-T 4 door Automatik RB25DET NEO 280hp 2.5L

Tried searching online but the companies I usually buy from, terrafirm, and z1 have none in stock

I didn't know this was possible.

I've been using an archived version of the R32 VIN decoder page on Archive.org since the original GTR Registry went down several years ago. URL below:

• https://web.archive.org/web/2/https://gtr-registry.com/

That is until today. I wanted to decode the VIN for a wrecked R32 GTR I saw on Copart (which is sad enough) but now I find the error message "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine" and there is no apparent workaround.

Without a backup archive on archive.is or archive.ph, the whole website is entirely gone.

Did anybody save anything from GTR Registry?
