Product Overview

Nissan Skyline GT-R Mk5 (chassis code R34) is a mid-size sports car in production from 1998 to 2002. It was powered by the iconic RB26DETT bi-turbo inline-6 engine that displaced 2.6 liters paired to a 6-speed Getrag manual transmission. AWD is standard.
An evolution of the superb R32 GT-R and the marginally different R33, the R34 was less elegant but more brutal in its power delivery. It is perfectly balanced and handles superbly.
Utility-minded owners will likely need to keep an alternative for hauling things around, as the tiny cargo space is almost surely insufficient.
