This Is Great News
Nissan Is Restarting Official Production Of Skyline Spares
No need to pinch yourself; we assure you this is real. Nissan is about to start making high-quality spare parts for a whole load of its classic fast cars, to help owners keep them on the road
No need to pinch yourself; we assure you this is real. Nissan is about to start making high-quality spare parts for a whole load of its classic fast cars, to help owners keep them on the road
It’s time for die-hard JDM fans to get excited, because
Nissan is launching a Heritage Parts Programme to supply genuine,
Nissan-made OE-spec components for its classic performance cars.
The new venture, which will be part of the company’s motorsport division, Nismo, will open its accounts by making spares for the R32 Skyline GT-R, but other models will be covered as well as time goes on. We expect that to include the R33 and R34, plus the various generations of Fairlady Z, the best-known of which was otherwise known as the 300ZX.
The new scheme should bring a halt to the problem of classic Nissans being repaired with sub-standard parts that could ultimately cause more damage and lead the cars to be scrapped. Nissan wants to keep these old machines on the road, and will supply the parts to make it possible.

The Unicorn Of The GTR Family
This pristine white R32 GT-R V-Spec II N1 is one of the most collectible of the GT-R family, with only 48 ever leaving the production line for homologation purposes in this specification. With the ‘rare’ and ‘pedigree’ boxes ticked we know this car is certifiably investment grade. The other thing on the savvy prospector’s mind is mileage, so we must enquire just how many kilometres are showing on the R32’s odometer.
The grand total of… 10. I travel further on my daily commute! And as for the price, well if you have to ask, you can’t afford it (for the record I did ask, and received laughter in response). The collectors are out there, and they are paying big dollars to secure these incredibly rare vehicles.

This Thing Runs What?
JUN II: A 7-Second, Street-Driven GT-R
Built by Croydon Racing Developments in Sydney, Australia, JUN II is the culmination of years of development. It began as a hard-tuned street car called JUN, but in 2012 things got serious and three year’s worth of re-engineering followed. The goal was to push the RB engine and the BNR32 Skyline GT-R as a whole beyond what had ever been done before at CRD, and its achievements to date speak volumes. Not only has the car run a 7.89-second quarter-mile, it retains street trim and is regularly driven on the road.

This Is My Favorite Generation Of The GT-R
The Undeniable Attraction Of An R32 GT-R
And the R32 especially, being the first of the second generation GT-Rs, delivers this by the bucketful.
You can do what you please with these cars – keep them stock and enjoy them as they were offered back in the day, or extract a bit more performance to take full advantage of the RB26 and the all-wheel drive underpinnings.

Skyline GTR's & All Of Their Glory On Display
Nissan's Skyline GT-R display is every Gran Turismo player's fantasy
Nissan put together this incredibly impressive display to show alongside the facelifted 2017 GT-R (the only car in this group not to wear the Skyline badge). The vehicles selected are immaculate, starting with the 1969. It's absolutely lovely. So is the far rarer second-generation car, a 1973. Nissan only built 197 of these beauties, compared to the nearly 2,000 first-gen GT-Rs.
The Playstation generation will be most excited about the R32, R33, and R34 on display. With the R32, we have two huge GT-R firsts – it was the first time Nissan applied all-wheel drive and a twin-turbo, six-cylinder engine to its high-performance package. That formula would stick through to today's car. The car shown here is a 1989 model, which is the first year for the third-gen car.
It's followed by a gorgeous 1995 R33. It's a looker, this, but not nearly as pretty as the R34, which builds on the look pioneered here. The R34 in question is the rare M-Spec Nür model, named for the Nürburgring and powered by an upgraded version of the RB26 engine. It's not the V-Spec II Nür from 2002, but it's still a rare, highly sought after piece from the JDM's performance glory days. Finally, representing the non-Skyline GT-R generation, we have the prototype for the R35 GT-R Nismo from 2013. Enjoy the camouflage and that frankly ludicrous wing.
