Working upwards of 80 hours a week to be able to provide for his family means that David doesnвЂ™t have too much spare time on his hands, but once that kit had arrived he sacrificed sleep in order to get it fitted as soon as possible. It wasnвЂ™t easy to get the new kit in the US so early on, but after finding a dealer willing to import it quickly and at decent cost, it wasnвЂ™t long before he was down at the docks picking up a big box that had arrived from TRA Kyoto, Japan. Seeing how the kit had a more performance-oriented style and almost mimicked the lines of his favorite R35 вЂ“ the GT3 race car version of the car вЂ“ David knew then and there that he had to have it.

Instead, he wanted to stay more true to the GT-RвЂ™s lines and character.Д¬all it good timing, but around the same time Miura-san over at Rocket Bunny released his very own wide body kit, which debuted first on the Trust D1 GT-R at this yearвЂ™s Tokyo Auto Salon. David did initially look at the Liberty Walk Works conversion, but felt it made the car look too bulbous. He wanted to go wilder, but at the same time not follow what others were already doing with the R35. It was about a year ago that he finally managed to get his hands on one, and the need to turn it into something totally unique to him began straight away.ДЄ set of wheels, adjustable suspension and a few carbon accents for the exterior did the job at the beginning, but then the bug really bit hard. Having a child in his sophomore year in high school forced David to take on the sort of responsibility that most people donвЂ™t usually have to deal with until later in life, but this is one man that knows what he wants and isnвЂ™t scared to go out there and get it.Дespite having gone through an interesting selection of cars that have included an Integra Type R, an E46 M3 and an Evo X, itвЂ™s a GT-R that heвЂ™s always really longed for. HeвЂ™s also the father of an 8-year-old boy, which has a big bearing on this storyВ considering the fact that heвЂ™s only 22 himself. Because as we all know, owning and tuning a new-gen R35 can be a rather expensive hobby вЂ“ a proverbial money pit if you will.В But in fact, David has worked very hard to get his hands on вЂ“ and modify вЂ“ his GT-R dream machine. Looking at these images from Larry, many people will just assume that David is a rich guy who has dumped a ton of money into his car. The cars themselves are great, of course, but a hunk of metal with shiny wheels wouldnвЂ™t be quite as special if it didnвЂ™t have an equally interesting story attached to it.ДЄnd the story behind David UyвЂ™s Nissan GT-R is one of the more special ones IвЂ™ve come across. ItвЂ™s this that has always made this work so interesting to me. It may be because of cars at the end of the day, but these people always bring their personal stories to the table вЂ“ how they have come to own and build a specific car, or what has led them to be in the position they are in. In this profession IвЂ™m constantly meeting people. ItвЂ™s something IвЂ™ve always thought was common sense. I give people the benefit of the doubt, and I never judge based on appearances or hearsay. Interpret this as you will, but at least in the course of my own life this is one rule I have tried to stick to.

You know what a big lesson in life is? Never make assumptions.
