As they only made it in RHD it was never sold in Europe, so there is
no CoC. As far as I know other than a very few GT-R34's no Skylines
since the Datsun 240K Type C110 (and I'm not sure if those aren't
private imports too) have been sold in Europe.
For the UK low volume cars are imported on a SVA (Single vehicle
approval). It's not transferable, it only applies to the importer
that brings the car in. I think they can bring in about 50 cars all
to exactly the same spec before having to re-apply but as it's hard to
get the spec to match exactly each importer has to put every car
though the test.
Late GT-R34 was sold in the UK only and not anywhere else in Europe.
RHD only again. Only 6 Nissan dealers were allowed to sell it, the
other Nissan dealers wouldn't even tell anyone it existed, let alone
where to get one. Even after I told them I wanted something to
replace a 200SX turbo and they had offered a 3.0 V6 QX (Maxima) and I
was walking out the door telling them it was no sale. As makers
Nissan could certify the spec was the same so they could bring batches
of 50 in on low volume SVA but I believe they only sold 6 in the UK in
the last year it was on sale.
Cars under 10 years old have to be stock models so mods have to be
removed before the test but can be refitted after. But it incurs cost
of buying the correct bits, fitting them and removing them again Over
10 years old and there is no SVA test, anything goes, just a MOT
condition test to check it's road worthy.

If you are importing one to Europe you may have to get one though the
UK SVA or if over 10 years old just the MOT and then register it in
the UK. Then under EU law I think it will be legally possible to
re-register it in any other EU country but you should get advice on if
a UK SVA is acceptable. Link below says it is OK in the Netherlands
and everywhere else in Europe.
SVA test also applies to low volume UK makers and kit cars.

You should be able avoid the "Q" plate as that for cars of unknown
age. You just need to prove the year of manufacture.

Thanks for your advice, my skyline is registered in UK now, and its model
bnr-32, -92..and i get it in finland next week. so, no SVA, just MOT.
I think there is lots of problems to get that car registered in finland, i
hope that UK registration helps things here finland.
Thanks, Jani
