Hello everybody...Waited 25 years for this day!

Hello everybody...Waited 25 years for this day!
I finally got my Nissan GTIR back home in Pennsylvania, USA.
Waited 25 years for the day I'd finally be able to own one of these cool cars.
I hope I enjoy the next 25 years driving it!
There have been very few things in my life that I have ever had to wait so long for.
More than half my life I've waited to be able to own one of these cars.
I hope all the reviews and enthusiasm I've seen over the years was worth the wait!

Of course, they didn't make it easy at the border.....6+ hours and a bunch of money I didn't expect to spend  :-(

Car specs:
Nothing too special. A Black GTIR with 179km.
Looks pretty much stock and untouched other than normal wear and tear for the year.
Needs lots of TLC, but am eager to start hunting for OEM replacement parts.

Here are a few photos.

Welcome! These cars are worth the wait! I bet there's not many people
Over there with a pulsar!!??

Welcome to the forum ....are you going to be keeping it as stock as possible ....

I would like to keep it as stock as possible.
There are a bunch of items that need attention.....first will have to be the Speedo - it jumps around as much as the tach!!!!

Welcome and good luck. Always people on here to advise and help out if your stuck for parts make a list and we can help. Where did you get the car from ?

Welcome!

I turn 25 next month so thats a crazy wait! My whole life lol.

Hi and welcome, think I only waited 14 years for mine and I thought that was long...

Welcome to the forum mate. I probably waited 14 years to get mine because I fell in love with them at about 10 years old but couldn't afford to buy and insure my own until I was 24
It will turn some head in the USA! I'd love to have one over there because it wouldn't be like anything else you see on the road. It will definitely surprise a few muscle car owners
