Last month you may remember I wrote about a visit to Abbey Motorsport outside London in the UK. What I didn't include in that story was photographs of what was sitting in their yard out back. Abbey are regarded as one of the best GT-R and Skyline tuners in Europe so it's a fair assumption that you can guess what this yard is mostly filled with.
With the exception of this mint Sierra RS Cosworth that had just been sold having sat inside a container for some years, the yard is home to a variety of Nissans.
Check out this R32 GT-R which is owned by a pensioner if my memory serves me correct. Big power, stripped interior and lots of spec.
Tidy R33 GT-R on Do Luck wheels.
Nippon Challenge 350Z with lots of Carbon bits …
… with an evil looking R33 GT-R parked beside it.
This R34 GT-R was detailed with lots of Nismo parts including Nismo wheels and a Nismo sway bar behind the front seats.
This R32 GT-R was running over 600HP …
The only good looking R33 Skyline, the GT-R.
Abbey Motorsport boss Tony Gillam's daily driver, an R31 Skyline.
I think it's fair to say the R34 GT-R in Bayside Blue is still the ultimate JDM car for many of us.
A WIP Pulsar GTI-R beside another R34 GT-R on Enkei wheels.
Although it may not be the most explosive story we've ever run, I hope it's at least visually stimulating enough to kill a few moments that you should of spent working / studying / doing something productive !

agreed, blue R34 is the ultimate JDM dream machine.
skyline paradise
I wish GT-R's were allowed in the US...
:O amazing!
every car is super shiny back they all sit in a gravel yard
It's like aTop Secret but in UK.
that parking lot is packing some heat
what I would do to get my hands on that Cosworth.... also that GTI-R.
jealousism is running through my body
please more coverage of z33's please!
Consider those moments I should be working officially killed! Thanks for that Paddy!
As a Nissan fan I totally dig that yard!!
The Cosy can stay too.
Wow I'm in heaven!! I love that Bayside Blue.
i like, this sort of story appeals to me quite a bit actually!
ThIs looks nice I like
please, wallpaper!!!
Sway bars don't go behind seats. And I know this is Speedhunters, but do you bother proofreading your articles? Your grammar is generally atrocious.
Sorry for hating. Good feature otherwise.
This is Crazy like this is what i want for xmas
So sick!
I should correct you that the R33 does look good in their lower forms too.
"The only good looking R33 - the GTR"
Ignorance is bliss hey? *ROLLS EYES*
are they all dead?!
the Pulsar is my favorite hatch ever.
its too bad they didnt keep it alive for 5 more years and brought it to the states, we would have gobbled that shit up like raver kids eat ecstasy
wow indeedy! they look like toy cars in a big toy backyard...to me.....!
I want one..make that more than one!
I'm gonna build a tent next to the yard.
Black nissan on 6&7 photo is best =)
The first pic would make an awesome wallpaper.
on this square you can sit 24h
Dam that R34 GT-R on Enkei's is sick, would looooove to see a feature! those rims will never get old!
Garage-D make the best drift skylines
Um I think you mean torsional brace not sway bar. Awesome, awesome, awesome gallery though.
Yes I agree, the R33 sedan does look rather nice... Especially if its my one ;P
That GTiR look just like my buddy's that we were working on earlier today. Man do I love those cars.
We took it to Bonneville right after he got it too. What a blast. Pics on my homepage if anyone is curious.
I love Skylines!
It's a shame the R35 looks like a futuristic turd.
Its legal to import a r34 gtr into canada in 2014 im already saving my money.

paddy is a dick, get a real job.
Nice to see a good mix of Skylines. Looks like the daily R31 Skyline is a limited Autech tuned one. Visually noticeable as they came in the gold metallic colour with the BBS RS wheels.
Man i'm not a JDM kinda guy but, HOLY CRAP!
Someone referenced this post to answer question "Do you think that Heaven is gonna be the Ultimate Paradise?"...
