ok lets clear some stuff up here

1991 Winning Limited.

a lot of 1000 car built to commerate the winning of La Mans. All Winning Limted car where baised off of the GT-R car ( steel turbo hood and rear seats. ) They only came in 1 color Shade Green ( GU ) the same as the Infini where painted. They had normal seats. They did come with a MOMO Steering wheel like the Infini but the horn button was just a MOMO logo. They had BBS wheel like the Infini 16 X 7 but with the BBS logo center cap. no abs, and the same strut tower bar as the Infinis had. It has the speed sensitive steering like on the GT-R ( 1990 and 1991 Infini IV had a different power steering pump )

Infini ( I - IV ) are based off of the GT-X


I will post more later.

looks like they added a body kit, roll bar and painted this car red.


here is a 1991 Winning Limited that was for sale a few months ago. Its hard to tell if the car in the auction was really a winning limited. sometime the auction places try to increase the bidding by calling car winning limited or Infini when they are just nornal cars.

THAT IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!

Word up because I hate seeing people get ripped off.

The car might be JDM, but it is nothing more than a TII with rims and this body kit.
here

The only reason I know is because I am thinking of getting the kit.

Use this knowlege and the fact that the rims aren't matched to knock the price down considerably.

Have fun!

Looks nice, but not a fan of the mismatched rims.
I could see how people joked about the CDN/USD dollar a few years ago, but when it's 90 cents american to a canadian dollar, it's hardly passable as funny.

What will be funny is when the US dollar drops even more so that it's the other way around...

thanks a lot for your help there 87gtr. I doubt that this is a winning ltd car now. And even if it was, why would they change the color?

PS: I'm not eyeing that GTX ninjasound, I have my eyes on another beauty.

You are right on some things but not all. The WL was 1000 cars made but only 500 are in Shade Green and the other 500 are Blazing Red. Also they did not come with a Steel hood, It is aluminum. Also came with the same High flow exhaust system the infini came with stock.
