Small Nissan 3rd generation ‘Skyline’? Actually A B110 ‘Sunny Sedan’

One of our goals is to display the car at the SEMA Show

“We started by making a Minisuka, but now we want people from all walks of life to drive it, so we plan to sell it as a base car as it is. In particular, we want young people with a sense of fun to buy it as a fashion item, so we plan to keep the price down to around 2.0 to 2.3 million yen after passing the documentary inspection and with a three-year vehicle inspection. However, it is only a base model and a car that is more than 50 years old. Maintenance inspections and customization are your responsibility. Our job is only to provide the materials. It’s no fun just to have an old Sunny as a mini-skid kit, so we take the stance of providing it as one of the materials to make it more enjoyable.”

In addition to the response from visitors at the Osaka Auto Messe, the company has already received many inquiries and has been talking to people in various fields, from the daily driver of a real Hakosuka owner to a base vehicle for drifting. It has also been decided to produce a GT-R version based on the B110 two-door sedan, as well as a four-door version. When completed, they are planning to exhibit it at the SEMA SHOW, the customized car trade fair in the USA. Minisuka could become a common keyword not only in Japan but also worldwide.

“My dream is to make Sunny the Mini of Japan. The total production volume is selling better than the Mini. And it would be interesting if more of this kind of customization would be popular all over the world. I think the Sunny is the best mass-market car in the world, so let’s just drive it the way we like it, without any troublesome particulars!　That’s what I feel.”
