In the heart of Thailand's JDM car culture lies a tale of passion and perseverance. Once a haven for modifying dream rides, a sudden ban on used car imports sent shockwaves through the scene, catapulting prices sky-high. But fear not, for where there's a will, there's a way - enter Sky Garage. Led by the enigmatic Mr. Kit and his team, they've mastered the art of transforming humble R34 gtts into indistinguishable GTRs, a feat that would make even the most seasoned petrolhead do a double-take.

As the ban reshaped the landscape, Thailand's JDM enthusiasts refused to be deterred. With meticulous craftsmanship and a dash of creativity, Sky Gallery and its counterparts breathed new life into iconic rides, preserving the spirit of the scene against all odds. The allure of the legendary GTRs proved irresistible, driving a frenzy of conversions and restorations that showcased Thailand's unwavering dedication to the automotive craft.

Amidst the chaos, a glimmer of hope emerged - a plan to restore BNRs from distant shores, ensuring that the legacy of these iconic machines lives on. Sky Gallery's meticulous approach, coupled with Thailand's unique blend of resourcefulness and skill, paints a picture of a community united by a shared love for all things automotive. From the last remaining GTTs to the roaring GTRs, each car tells a story of resilience, ingenuity, and an unwavering commitment to the pursuit of automotive excellence. Thailand's JDM scene stands as a testament to the unbreakable bond between man and machine, a bond that transcends borders and defies the odds.
