Nissan is Japan's premium performance brand — the one that defined the 90s JDM canon. RB26DETT (Skyline GT-R R32/R33/R34), S20 (Hakosuka), VQ35DE (Fairlady Z33) and VR38DETT (R35) are benchmarks — proven at the Nürburgring, in Super GT, and in the hands of tuners like Nismo, Top Secret, HKS and Mine's.
USS Tokyo and USS Yokohama surface 80–120 GT-R variants a week. The prize — R34 V-Spec II Nür (final run 2002/2003, 1,003 units) — commands hammer prices from ¥18M (~£92k) to ¥45M (~£230k). An R32 GT-R in solid shape (grade 4+, original paint) is currently ¥5M–¥9M (~£25k–£46k hammer).
What we do exceptionally well. Our Yokohama inspector visits every Nissan we seriously bid on — specialising in matching-numbers verification (a +20% value lift on RB26), original Bayside Blue (TV2) paint authentication, and tuning history. We also know what to look for on the auction sheet: "U1" in mileage means a reset odometer, "X" in exterior grade is a welded roof, and "エンジン異音" (abnormal engine noise) disqualifies most of our offers.
