Nissan Skyline GT-R Overview

Nissan Skyline GT-R is a sports car based on Nissan Skyline range (a line of sports cars, compact cars and compact executive cars). The car will be a wonderful memory for many people who used to play Gran Turismo on the Playstation from the late 1990s to early 2000s. It was also one of the most favourite road-going racing cars amongst car enthusiasts and gamers alike thanks to its imposing presence and incredible performance.

There are 5 generations of Nissan Skyline GT-R. The first generation was launched from 1969 to 1972 under the model code KPGC10, and become a legendary sports car in local Japanese market. In 1973, the world was introduced the second generation, under the model code KPGC110 but unfortunately this generation was not a success as the first generation. And after a notable absence of 16 years, Nissan brought back the Skyline GT-R with more interesting things in the third generation in the year 1989, under the name BNR32 (‘R32”) Skyline GT-R. The third generation won a lot of car racing competitions like the Australian Touring Car Championship, JTCC Group A series championship.

After the success of R32, the fourth generation (R33) was released in 1995, featured the same power output and engine layout as the R32; besides Nissan gave to the R33 a lot of improvement in every department. And at that time, it was impressive that the R33 was the fastest car production lapping the Nurburgring, posting a record of 00:08:01. In 1999, the fifth generation was released under the name R34 with a huge improvement,  making the car as a strong competitor to other expensive European supercars of the days.

Nissan Skyline GT-R became an outstanding product of Nissan that showcases many advanced technologies such as the Super-HICAS 4-wheel steering and the ATTESA E-TS AWD. Today, the Skyline GT-R is well-known for circuit track, drag racing, time attack and events held by tuning magazines. In 2002, Nissan decided to stop producing the Skyline GT-R and replaced by the R35 Nissan GT-R (an all-new vehicles based on the V36 Skyline). Though the two cars look different, they are manufactured in the same factory and share similar design features.

Generations Of Nissan Skyline G-TR

1. First Generation (1969 - 1972)

The first generation, known by the name PGC10, was introduced in February 1969. Originally, it was a 4-door sedan that later released as a coupe in March 1971. Nissan gave the first Skyline GTR generation a 2.0L DOHC S20 Inline-6 engine which produces 119 kW (160 bhp; 162 PS) at 7,000 rpm and 176 Nm (130 Ibft) at 5,600 rpm.

The car has added minor aerodynamic parts and rode on a semi-trailing ring arm suspension.

Unfortunately, this generation was not a successful generation of Skyline GT-R. There were only 197 cars built by the end of its short production run. A gasoline crisis happened in the early 1970s which dried out any demand for high-performance sports cars was the main reason responsible for the limited sales of the second generation.

The valve covers of the R34 were painted  glossy red (color code X1020 or Cherry Red Effect) instead of black in previous models. A 5.8’ LCD multifunction is equipped for the R34, which illustrates 7 different live readings of engine and vehicle such as oil and water temperature, turbocharger pressure (1.2 bar max).
