From 1969 through the early 1970's, at the Japanese Touring Car Race,
the Skyline GT-R achieved an unbelievable streak of fifty victories in
a row. Sixteen years later, its successful name was passed on to the
R32 type, which was developed as a base machine for Group-A races. To
take full advantage of its powerful 2.6l, 6-cylinder, twin turbo
engine, it was equipped with a 4-WD system, which provided unrivalled
race performance. 1995 saw the larger body and refined mechanics of the
R33.
In 1999, the technology cultivated over a long racing history was
unsparing poured into the new R34 type, developed with "ultimate
driving pleasure" in mind. The R34 features a smaller body and a
sturdier structure, with ample consideration given to its aerodynamics.
The adjustable two-level rear spoiler as well as a front and rear
diffuser (V-spec), regulate the flow of air under the chassis,
heightening control. The R34's impressive speed is accounted for by a
modification in valve timing and turbo-charging of the GETRAG 6-speed
transmission controlled engine.
Further refinements have been adopted such as an electronically
controlled front/rear power distribution 4WD system and a multi-link
suspension. Undergoing extensive testing in Japan, its driving
performance was further improved in Germany, on the Nurburgring.
Unrivalled speed and control have made the R34 version of the GT-R
Nissan's, if not Japan's, new index of quality.
