Global motorsports communications manager The next round of the SUPER GT will be held at AUTOPOLIS on October 24. In the GT300 class, five Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3s competed and, despite carrying a mammoth “success weight” of 81kg, the #56 Realize Nissan Automobile Technical College GT-R (Kiyoto Fujinami / Joao Paulo de Oliveira), displayed a valiant performance to leap from a 10th place qualifying position to finish on the podium in third place. The #24 GT-R finished 6th, and the #23 GT-R seventh to round out a solid start to the second half of the season for the Nissans. This was the first win in the GT500 class for both Hiramine and Matsushita and the second consecutive win for the GT-R following the podium sweep at the previous round held at Suzuka. Driver Kazuki Hiramine steadily maintained his lead before taking his first win of the season. Towards the end of the race the #12 GT-R widened the gap with the rest of the field as it headed towards the checkered flag at a steady pace. When the race restarted in lap 55 the #12 GT-R was now running in first place with a margin of less than two seconds over the chasing competition. Then in lap 46, the race leader was handed a drive-through penalty while on lap 47, another car caught fire exiting the final corner, which brought out the safety car. Unfortunately, in lap 37, the #3 GT-R was forced to retire due to minor engine trouble. It was shortly after that the race took a tumultuous turn.

The new 2000 gas regulation forced Nissan to end production of the GT-r in August 2002, however the glory of this ultimate sports car lives on.Another Winning weekend for the GT-R GT500 □ Marketed as the last GT-R to equip a straight 6 engine, all 1000 were sold-out in one day, attesting to its incredible popularity. Combining the impressive specifications of both the V-spec II and the M-spec, 1000 units of the "Nur" were produced in all. In February 2002, Nissan released a limited edition car called "Nur", named after the Nurburgring circuit, and equipped with an N1 racing specification engine.

The V-spec II also features the previous improvements of the V-spec: front/rear diffusers and 18-inch tires, brake discs with Brembo calipers, and a 6-speed transmission. So what could be more logical than to complete the Streetfighter range with a Nissan GT-R (R34) sporting this iconic. This now legendary blue livery can still be found today on some of the racing cars entered by Nissan in official competitions. Both inside and outside surfaces of the hood were designed using RTM, a new construction method yeilding smooth surfaces. In the early 90’s, the JGTC was dominated by Nissan and its R32 in Calsonic colours. The carbon pattern of the hood would stand out even when painted the same color as the car body. The most drastic alteration was the replacement of the aluminum hood with a new carbon hood featuring a NACA duct. This new evolution was called the V-spec II. In October 2000, the Skyline underwent minor changes such as the addition of large rear brakes to upgrade performance further. Originally designated as R32, the car was termed R33 in 1995 and R34 in 1999.

Taking full advantage of its powerful 2.6l, 6-cylinder, twin turbo engine, it was equipped with a 4WD system. The Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32), released in 1989, was developed as a base machine for Group-A races.
