A Few Fun Facts about about the skyline: 1. Australia was the only country where the R32 GTR was officially exported to by Nissan. 2. The R31 Nissan Skyline wagon as designed in Australia( there was also a 4 cylinder version of the sedan/wagon called the Pintara). 3. There was a “sports” version of the R31 Skyline called the silhouette & Silhouette GTS for the series2 version, which were produced up until 1989. The Victorian Police also used some of thease as Highway Patrol Cars.

Great video as always :)

Love the All-Wheel-Drive system, It was one of the first sports car with an all-wheel-drive system. It was very ahead of its time with that

I've owned a 1989 HCR32 since 2006. Thanks for mentioning it in the video.

So many inaccuracies. Rb20 is not twin turbo. How is 160HP pitiful in 1969-70 with a high revving 6 cylinder 2L? There were also GTS-4, R32's with CA18DE etc etc. R33 GTR also has 276 HP listed not over 300. RB26 in the R34 was also not foreign, basically the same motor from 10 years before with a few changes to the turbo's, oil management etc. So not lightyears ahead. Also finally because ceebs watching the rest. Godzilla nickname was given in 1989 by Wheels Magazine and that was before they were even built to race in Australia. So no it wasn't based on it's exploits

Illian Santiago tignan mo sa 7:15 yung plaka ng kotse sa atin yan.

Certain years were designed by a freelance designer. He also worked on both Mazda MX6 generations. Compare the back window pillar of first gen MX6 to the Skyline. There are alot of design similarities. As for the MX6 first gen engine it was a 12 valve 2.2 liter 4 cylinder and was turbocharged in the GT version. The GT had some good options as well. 4 wheel steering, 3 way adjustable suspension, ABS ect. The 5 speed transmission can handle some decent power. My brother has a 626 GT 1988 5 speed, 3way suspension. It's the four door version with the same turbo 2.2 liter. He has beat some Corvettes, a M5, supercharged Mercedes. It can burn rubber at 55 mph in third gear with its stock clutch. Also what makes the engine even better is an earlier version of the VRIS system. It gives the engine an extra boost at 4K rpm. If you can get past that it's FWD, then it's a good option. Just don't ruin the VRIS system with an aftermarket intake!

the fact that a tissue box on wheels(the R34) can churn out those kinds of numbers and speeds in comparison to similar HP ratings on other much more aerodynamic cars says all it needs to! that thing defies the laws of physics!

Too bad we will never have a 400r 😭

Part 2. The R33 Skyline was introduced in August 1993. Slightly heavier than the R32, it was available in coupe and sedan body configurations. The R33 was the safest of the models with a rating of 3.8 out of 5.5 accordingly; the airbag system and internal crash bars made this vehicle significantly safer than previous models. All models now used a six cylinder engine. Nissan took the unusual step of down-grading the GTS model to have only the RB20E, while the twin-cam of the R32 GTS was discontinued. The 2.0 L turbo RB20DET GTS-t was also discontinued and was replaced with the GTS-25t which was equipped with the larger RB25DET and featured HICAS as standard in all GTS-25t sub-models except the Type G. Some models came equipped with a new version of the HICAS 4-wheel steering system called Super HICAS. This computer controlled system was first used on the R32 GT-R. Super HICAS used electric actuators to steer the rear, as opposed to the hydraulic HICAS. This generation was no longer considered a "compact" As an option, an active limited slip differential was available instead of the standard viscous LSD. This new unit locked the rear differential if it detected that traction was lost by one of the wheels. A light on the dash also lit up if the LSD engaged. Active LSD came standard on all V-Spec R33 GT-R Skylines and was also available on some ECR33 GTS-25t models; these can be identified by the A-LSD and SLIP lights on the tachometer. The RB25DE and RB25DET engines also became equipped with NVCS (variable inlet cam phasing). NVCS equipped RB series engine have a bulge on the front of the cam cover. To celebrate their 40th anniversary, Nissan introduced a very rare 4-door GT-R. Two versions of the 4-door GT-R were available from Nissan's subsidiaries: the first was produced by Autech, and the second was a joint Autech/Nismo project. A Nissan Laurel C34 based wagon was released in September 1996, called the Stagea. It is widely regarded as a compatriot of the Skyline, rather than the Laurel it was based on, owing to drivetrain configurations-Commonly AWD using ATTESA ET-S. A common modification on the Stagea is to fit it with an R34 skyline front, in effect making an R34-lookalike wagon. A manual transmission was only available on the RS-Four and RS-Four V models. There was also an Autech tuned Stagea, the 260RS; released with full GT-R running gear, including an RB26DETT engine and manual transmission, a unique body kit, 17" BBS style alloys, and GT-R instrumentation. The previous R32 model was a well proven build but the R32 wasn't without faults and suffered with uplift and balance issues. Along with that, Nissan was as other Japanese companies were under strict restrictions on power gains. So Nissan had to combat all these areas so the sophisticated strength Programme was made. Nissan increased the width by about one inch on the R33 to the R32 and made it about 4 inches longer. This gave the R33 a longer wheelbase overall and lower stance mixed with new technology now from the computer aerodynamic age. Each line on the R33 was intended to give the car ultimate aerodynamics with wider gaps in the bumper and angles of air movement which allowed better cooling, in addition to the fuel tank lifted; the battery moved to the boot/trunk. Rigidity points were added mixed with improvements on the Attessa and Hicas all now offered the R33 with the best aerodynamics, balance, and handling. Nissan engineers also found other ways to reduce weight, even by a few grams. This includes: Hollowing out the side door beams. Using high tensile steel on body panels. Reduction in sound deadening materials. Super HICAS becoming electric. Hollowing out of rear stabilizer bar. Use of high tensile springs front and rear. Shrinking the ABS actuator. Light aluminum wheels with higher rigidity The front and rear axles were made of aluminum (as in the BNR32) but also so were engine mount insulators and brackets New plastics were used for : fuel tank, head lamps, super high strength "PP" bumpers, air cleaner, changing the headlining material, changing material of rear spoiler. All this put together meant we saw an improved time against the R32 of 21 seconds faster around the nurburgring and 23 seconds faster in V spec trim. Still making the R33 the fastest skyline around the nurburgring. The BCNR33 GT-R version also had the same RB26DETT engine that the BNR32 was equipped with, although torque had been improved, due to changes in the turbo compressor aerodynamics, turbo dump pipe, and intercooler. The turbo core changed from a sleeve bearing to a ball bearing, but the turbine itself remained ceramic, except on N1 turbos (steel turbine, sleeve bearing). From the R33 onward, all GT-Rs received Brembo brakes. In 1995 the GT-R received an improved version of the RB26DETT, the ATTESA-ETS four-wheel-drive system, and Super HICAS 4-wheel steering. A limited edition model was created in 1996, called the NISMO 400R, that produced 400 hp (298 kW) from a road-tuned version of Nissan's Le Mans engine. A stronger six-speed Getrag gearbox was used. In May 1998, the HR34, ER34, ENR34, and BNR34 marked the introduction of the more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly RB25DET NEO engine. The RB20E engine was discontinued in the R34 base model (GT), and the RB20DE, after last being used in the R32 Skyline, was reintroduced in the updated NEO guise. The R34 GT, powered by the RB20DE NEO and coupled with a five-speed gearbox, became the most fuel-efficient straight-six Skyline to date (of any shape). The 4-speed automatic transmission available on some models was retained, and was upgraded with tiptronic-style manual controls.The 25GT-T coupe variant (often abbreviated as GT-T) was sold in Singapore, New Zealand and Hong Kong from 1998 to 2000 respectively. They were the only three countries besides Japan that sold the R34 25GT-T model Skylines new. All Japanese Nissan Prince Store locations that sold the Skyline were renamed Nissan Red Stage. Nissan introduced two new models for the base vehicle, the 25GT-X and the 25GT-V. The 25GT-X was only available as a sedan and had optional extras over the 25GT and 25GT-T such as tinted rear windows and pop-up LCD display that replaced the triple cluster on the turbo models. The 25GT-V was a naturally-aspirated variation that came standard with the upgraded 4-piston front and 2-piston rear Sumitomo calipers and 17" wheels only found on the turbo models. In August of 2000, the R34 received a facelift which changed the front bumper to a new, sleek design and Xenon headlights were optional across the entire range. For the interior, pedals were changed from rubber to aluminium and the steering wheel and gear shift knob were now made of genuine leather. The center console and dials now had an iridium-silver appearance.Optional extras for the R34 included exterior aero which consists of redesigned front and rear bumpers, side skirts and a wrap-around spoiler on the rear which was only available for the coupe. Optional tuning NISMO parts for the R34 included shock absorbers, exhaust system, intercooler, sway bars, oil cooler, and limited slip differential.

You can get cheap c10s, in japan. They will take a lot of work to restore and shipping is mildly tricky but you can get them. If you wanna go super cheap you can buy shells over there and use the often swapped out L24 and trans from a 240z as they will fit in nicely.

Fucking Hype to come home from work and see a video from The 303!

Please do a video on the Nissan stagea, I'm so tempted on getting this car within the next 3 months imported.

I'm voting for the NSX for next video. Actually the R34 series actually had a fairly decent motorsport career in the Japanese Grand Touring Car (JGTC until 2004, Super GT since 2005) races. In fact, Xanavi Nismo ran the JGTC in the R34 back in the early 2000s until they replaced it with the Z33 in 2004, and the R35 in 2008. Some of the more notable sponsors of the R34s in the JGTC includes: Calsonic Motul Penzoil Nismo Loctite Zexel Penzoil Zexel Ok so I may have cheated by looking it up on Gran Turismo 4, but I did look up the actual cars on google and they did run the JGTC GT500 alongside other Japanese heavyweights like the Supra and NSX.

Do skyline have active differential and torque vectoring??

If you have the r30 skyline gtr from hot wheels, why the Front Bumper of the r30 is different? Is Based of the customized already R30 skyline gtr and then they maked it to 1/64 scale for the collectors of the gtr diecast cars.

About the Stagea... it's not based on the same chassis as the Skyline, it's based on the C35 Laurel platform. What it shares with the Skyline are the drivetrain, which the awd Stageas share with the R33 GTR for the series 1 Stagea and a hodge podge of R33/R34 GTR parts for the awd series 2. Manual models also came with a R33 GTR gearbox. Engine-wise, the Autech 260rs version is equipped with the RB26DETT from the GTR and the RS4-V and RS4-S models came with the same RB25DET Neo found in the R34 GT-T (as well as its N/A equivalent in non-turbo models).

GT-R is really well-known at the Super GT (or Japanese Grand Touring Championship) In the 90's is the iconic Calsonic Skyline and in all 29 races from 1990 to 1993. and then another iconic Skyline is the R33 with a yellow paint and a big Pennzoil logo in 1998. it grabbed attention by winning its first round of the season in Suzuka Circuit. in Round 3 in Sendai. the R33 Pennzoil is ready for action. the number 23 took win and went to claim the Championship in that year. the R33 is powered by a highly tuned version of the original RB26DETT which used in the road going version. which been borrowed and used in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. and then in 1999. the Pennzoil GT-R struggled by that season and didn't win that time. but still collect a few points. and in 2000. another Skyline the Calsonic Skyline. the number 12 Skyline was driven by Kazuyoshi Hoshino and Satoshi Motoyama, the same pair who brought the company glory in Group A races. they won six races and placed 2nd of the 1996 season and its last JGTC win for Hoshino. it once reputed to be the fastest driver in Japan. who retired from racing in 2002. and in 2008. GT-R returned to the Super GT scene. the number 23 Xanavi Nismo GT-R made 1st place overall in 2008 Super GT season driven by Satoshi Motoyama and Benoit Treluyer which already mentioned. the GT-R in Super GT made remarkable history throughout. so far Nissan out clashed the rivals of Honda and Toyota/Lexus. the GT-R is great looking car

I know that orange Hakosuka! 佐世保 plates! That thing was rad with a custom built engine in it!

There are many incorrect info and a bit of biased info on the Skyline GT-R and the sub variants. The S20 engine which appeared in the Skyline GT-R KPGC10 is more of a racing engine What makes it rare and unique is that the engine was pretty powerful at 160bhp in the 1960s to 1970s era where most cars of that time produce around 100bhp or less and had only 3 speed or 4 speed gearboxes. The GT-R had the S20 and a 5 speed gearbox. The sedan racked up 33 victories in less than two years, and the coupé stretched this to 50 through 1972. The C10 raced against many cars including the Toyota Corona 1600GT (RT55), Isuzu Bellett GTR, Mazda Familia (R100) & Capella (RX-2) - even Porsche. In late 1971 the new Mazda RX-3 became the GT-R's main rival. The GT-R managed a few more victories before the RX-3 ended the GT-R's winning streak. The S20 has 4 valves per cylinder, three webber carbs and dual overhead cams so it has the 432 config and this was used on the special version of the 240Z/S30 called the Fairlady Z432/Z432R. The C110 Skyline was better known as the "Ken & Mary" or "Kenmeri" (ケンメリ) Skyline, stemming from the advertisement campaign in Japan at the time which featured a young couple (Ken and Mary) who relaxed and enjoyed the countryside in Ken and Mary's Skyline (ケンとメリーのスカイライン). The ads were highly successful and perhaps as a result the C110 was sold in very large numbers in Japan. The GT-R variant retains the same S20 racing engine as the KPGC10 brother. The succeeding C210/211 and GC210/211 of 1977 continued to split the Skyline range into basic and six-cylinder models, the latter with a longer wheelbase and front end. This line continued through 1981. A rare variant would be the wagon version, which had a unique styling treatment behind the rear doors, of a much smaller window than usual between the C and D pillars. The Skyline received an internal and external facelift in late 1978, which led to a change of the model code from 210 to 211. This was also when the Skyline first appeared in several European export markets, such as Germany. The GT-EX replaced the discontinued GT-R with a turbocharged engine, the L20ET. As installed in the recently renewed Nissan Cedric/Gloria, this had been the first turbo engine to power a Japanese production vehicle. One notable aspect of the turbo versions was that they were not inter-cooled and there was no form of blow off valve, only an emergency pressure release valve. As usual with Japanese cars of this period, there were four- or five-speed manuals and a three-speed automatic, with a column-shifted three-speed manual available on lower end cars and vans. R30 series released in August 1981, was built on a C31 Laurel platform. Unlike preceding generations, four- and six-cylinder versions now shared a front end of the same length. The R30 was available as a two-door hardtop coupe, a four-door sedan, a five-door hatchback (available only in the R30 generation), or a four-door station wagon. In all, there were 26 variations of the R30 Skyline available. The DR30 RS-X Turbo Skyline, got another nickname called the "Iron Mask" for its distinctive front end treatment. And this Skyline was one of the few models which use the FJ20ET producing 205bhp which is a 4 cylinder engine which powered the S12 Silvia RSX. The DR30 achieved success in Australian touring car racing during the mid-1980s. The factory backed Peter Jackson Nissan Team made its Group A debut in the opening round of the 1986 Australian Touring Car Championship, and over the 10 round series, lead driver George Fury would win four of the rounds and it was only unreliability in the first two rounds that cost Fury the title, finishing only 5 points behind the Volvo 240T of Robbie Francevic. The R31 Skyline of 1986 was a natural evolution on the R30 shape, and also this one was loosely based on the Laurel platform (C32). The design was slightly larger and squarer than previous Skylines. It was available as a Sedan, Hardtop sedan, Coupé and station wagon. Affectionately known as the "Seventhsu" or simply "7th Sukairain" by owners, due to it being the 7th-generation Skyline. The R31 Skyline introduced many new technologies and features. The HR31 was the first Skyline to be equipped with the new RB-series of engines. The HR31 RB engines are often referred to as "Red Top" engines because of the red cam covers. The RB20DET denotes RB = Inline 6, In fact RB does not mean Race Bred. the 20 means the engine has a displacement of 2L. The D stands for DOHC or Dual Overhead cams. The E indicates the individual engine ports are electronically fuel-injected. The single T indicates the engine has a single turbo. Only the TT indicates the engine has twin turbos. All models before the R32 are only RWD based. Only the GT-R series from the BNR32 onward are rear biased AWD The R32 Skyline debuted in 1989. It was available as either a 2-door coupe or 4-door hardtop sedan, all other bodystyles were dropped. The R32 featured several versions of the RB-series straight-6 engines, which had improved heads (the twelve port inlet was gone) and used the ECCS (Electronically Concentrated Control System) injection system. This includes the RB20, RB25 and RB26. Most models had HICAS four-wheel steering, with the rear wheels being hydraulically linked to the front steering. The 2.5-litre GTS-25 became one of the first Japanese production cars to feature a 5-speed automatic transmission. The GTS-t came in standard and Type M configurations, with the Type M having larger five-stud 16-inch wheels, four piston front callipers and twin piston rears plus other minor differences. ABS was optional (except for the GT-R and GTS-4), mechanical LSD was standard on the GTR and viscous LSD was standard on all turbo models and optional on all but the GXi. Nissan also produced 100 Australian models of the R32. In addition, there was a 4WD version of the GTS-t Type M, called the GTS-4. The R32 GT-R was first produced in 1988 including prototype cars. The first six Nismos were built in 1989. The other 554 NISMO GT-Rs were all built in 1990 and were all Gunmetal Grey in color. The RB26DETT engine actually produced ~320 PS, but it was unstated due to the Japanese car makers' "gentlemen's agreement" not to exceed 280 PS (276 hp). The engine was designed for ~500 hp in racing trim, and then muzzled by the exhaust, boost restriction, and ECU. After this increase the car would put out ~310 hp (~230 kW) and could do 0-100 km/h in 4.7 seconds and quarter mile in 12.8 seconds. The GT-R had a significantly larger intercooler, larger brakes, and aluminium front guards and bonnet. Other distinguishing features include flared front and rear wheel arches. More supportive seats were fitted, and the turbo boost gauge and digital clock were removed from inside the instrument cluster. The clock was replaced with a torque meter that indicated how much torque was being delivered to the front wheels (0%-50%). Oil temp, voltage, and turbo boost gauges were fitted just above the climate control. The R32 GT-R dominated Japanese Touring Car Championship (JTCC), winning 29 races from 29 starts, taking the series title every year from 1989 to 1993. It took 50 races from 50 starts from 1991 to 1997 (latterly R33) in the N1 Super Taikyu. The R32 GT-R was introduced into the Australian Touring Car Championship in 1990 and promptly ended the reign of the previously all-conquering Ford Sierra Cosworth, winning Bathurst 1000 classic in 1991 and 1992. This success led to the Australian motoring press nicknaming the car Godzilla due to it being a "monster from Japan". As Australia was the first export market for the car the name quickly spread. Such was the GT-R's dominance that it was a significant factor in the demise of Group A Touring Car racing, the formula being scrapped soon after. JTCC was similarly blighted by the R32 GT-R, and splintered soon after, leading to the switch to the Supertouring category and also indirectly to the GT500 category of today. When originally designed, the homologation rulebook mandated 16-inch wheels, so that's what the GT-R got. This limited the size of the brakes, and the four-piston calipers used by Nissan were not competitive. After the rules changed to allow 17-inch wheels, the GT-R V-spec (for Victory) emerged in February 1993 wearing 17" BBS mesh wheels (225/50/17) covering larger Brembo calipers. The clutch actuation changed from a push to a pull system and the car had a standard mechanical rear differential (the electronic rear differential did not show up until the R33 V-Spec). A year later, the V-Spec II appeared with a new sticker and wider tires (245/45 17). The Nismo Skyline GT-R is a limited (500 street, 60 racing) version of Nissan Skyline with Nissan RB engine with twin steel turbochargers rated 280 PS (206 kW; 276 hp) at 6,800 rpm and 353 N⋅m (260 lb⋅ft) at 4,400 rpm, all-wheel steering, electronically controlled all-wheel drive.

Regarding post-R34 Skylines, after the G35 and G37 (which were really more luxury Zs than Skylines anyway), Infiniti came out with the Q50 which is a MUCH more proper successor to the non-GTR Skylines, with the Eau Rouge being the GTS-R equivalent.

Well actually the Skyline was the road going version of the GTR and the c10 was based on the Prince they recently purchased. However the rest of the video was quite informative. Also the r33 GTR was the most succesful of the 3 R series GTR's while the name GODZILLA was given to the r32 GTR by Wheels magazine after it dominated Australia's racing scene in the late 80s early 90s

The king of Japan!

the R34 has been my dream car for a while now, and it will be for a long time

The car of my dreams.

Part 3 Skyline GT-R M·spec The M·spec is a version of Nissan Skyline GT-R with ripple control shock absorbers, M·spec-specific leather seat (front/rear seat, with front seat heater), 3-spoke leather wrapped steering wheel, and choice of four body colours (including Silica Breath (RPM/multi flex colour)). Skyline GT-R M·spec Nür, V·spec II Nür (2002) The M·spec Nür and V·spec II Nür are limited (1000 units) versions of Nissan Skyline GT-R with Super Taikyu N1 spec engine, for Japanese market. It included 300 km/h speedometer, 3d grade name emblem, and addition body colour option (millennium jade (metallic)). The GT-R NISMO Z-tune was the final version of the R34 which had a bored and stroked RB26 called the RB28DETT producing 500 BHP from the factory but that was limited. The actual power was said to be 600bhp with the rev limit set higher. Only 20 Units were made.

I got the Renault 5 GT Turbo and the Suzuki cappuccino. Maybe one of those?

The joke about the g35 made my day 😂😂

omfg... I was crying when I saw the R34..... Such a beauty.... I WANT IT AND I WANT IT NOW!!!!!!!!

what is the animation at the start??

7:15 I've seen that GTR in the Philippines

You should make a Fairlady Z video. From the 240 to the 370.

Great video man!!!... wish the music wasn't as loud tho.. :/

That Fairlady Z with the skyline though

A few mistakes, for example the R32 came out in 89 not 87. Also, the RB20DET was single turbo, hence the single T. The RB26DETT was twin turbo hence the TT. Also you didn’t mention any of the special models of the R32, R33, and R34 plus you should have gone more in-depth with the R32 racing history. Other than that, great video and keep up the great work. I own an R32 GTR with a built RB26 and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Life goal is to own one of every GTR including the very hard to find Hakosuka and Kenmeri GTRs. Now I know this isn’t Japanese related but I would love to see a Ford RS video talking about all of the RS models (RS200, Sierra RS Cosworth, Sierra RS500 Cosworth, Fiesta RS Turbo, Escort RS Cosworth, Focus RS (2002, 2009, 2016) and the Focus RS500) because I’ve always had an interest in them. Up to you. Hope everyone has a great day!

The R32 is the only godzilla, it earned that name because of racing history

When are u doin the datsun pickups

I was going to nit pick about the 35 and how only the 32 earned the nick name "Godzilla", but you touched on it so ill aplaud you for that. However... no mention of prince?

Can we also talk about the fact that the C210 basically was the green light for the modern Skyline shaping? (well, until the R35 happened)

*BACK ON THE ROCKA INTENSIFIES*

The r34 was in the jgtc 300 and 500 and other series for years....it has a pretty long racing history

I've seen a couple R32's go for 25k-35k around Lakewood and Brighton area

A few stats off but good model coverage!!

can someone tell me whats the intro music?

One of, if not, the best jdm

If you makw a hoody out of this thumbnail too, could you make the skyline Bayside blue? I think its the most well known colour and would fit better

The RB20DET isn't twin turbocharged.

Hey the R34 also competed in the JGTC (Super GT's former name)

What is the song in the beginning

Recently, a tuner tested an rb26 and it produced 1794 horsepower.

R32,33,34 are awesome man RB26 is awesome!!!!
