Giving Zilla A Breath: Maya Gann-Bociek's 1987 Nissan Skyline

Vehicle Features Adam Gordon

Here’s one you don’t see every day! There’s something so retro-cool about the R31 Skyline that predated the “Godzilla” models we all know and love. Being such a rare platform, some people may never lay eyes on one of these, let alone one with an RB25DET engine swapped in! It was hard not to love this thing.

Maya won the Editor's Choice award at PASMAG's Tuning 365 Show at Formula DRIFT: St. Louis and received a print feature in PASMAG #168. Click Here to order.
