The Nissan Skyline GT-R R34, produced from 1999 to 2002, is one of the most iconic Japanese sports cars ever made and a true JDM legend. Powered by the RB26DETT 2.6L twin-turbo inline-six, it produced 280 hp officially (though real output was often higher). Paired with the ATTESA E-TS all-wheel-drive system and the Super-HICAS rear-wheel steering, the R34 delivered razor-sharp handling and incredible grip, making it a beast on both road and track.
What makes the R34 truly special is its balance—raw performance wrapped in a sleek, muscular body with the signature round taillights. Inside, it featured the famous multi-function display on the dashboard, giving drivers real-time engine data—a racing-inspired touch far ahead of its time.
Thanks to its appearances in Fast & Furious, video games, and countless tuning projects, the R34 became a cultural icon, with some clean examples now valued as highly as modern supercars. It remains one of the most beloved and respected cars in the GT-R bloodline.
