Sales market: Japan. Right steering
8 months after the start of the serial release of the new, the 10th generation of the Skyline base car, in January 1999, the model of the Skyline GT-R series R34 (BNR34) debuts. Already traditionally the lineup It is divided into machines of the usual configuration and the V-SPEC modification machine. The new model was equipped with an RB26DETT engine with an enlarged torque and a 6-speed manual gearbox from the company GetRag. Even the standard car was characterized by increased body rigidity and had a running quality no worse than the car for the previous modification R33 GT-R V-SPEC. On the new R34 V-SPEC machine, the same "Attesa E-TS Pro" system was standing, and in addition, its suspension passed a special adjustment. It turned out a car, just created in order to deliver the maximum of riding pleasure. Needless to say, in the sales ranking, she ranked one of the top rows. In August 2000, occurs partial replacement A model range, after which a black color began to prevail in the interior. In May 2001, the model range was replenished with a car new configuration M-spec, whose shock absorbers were equipped with a device that allows you to get rid of fine vibration, and the salon was supplemented with leather seats.4.7 / 5 ( 4 votes)
Do you know how it happens? You are heading the Japanese autoconecern Nissan, let's get GT-R and do not even plan any enchanting sales. You also do not expect that the car will someday be popular abroad. But in 1989, Nissan Skyline was considered the fastest on the planet Japanese car. In 1998, the world saw Nissan Skyline R34. The machine has repeatedly lit in the series "Fast and Furious" film and marked the yield of the tenth generation.
A total of 13 generations of this car were released. The current version of the V37 is sold under the name Infinity Q50 in countries such as Russia, North America, South Korea And Taiwan. Last generation Manufactured under the title Nissan GT-R And it was shown in 2016. All.
History of car
Skyline is one of the oldest types of Japanese cars - this brand has already been operating for more than fifty years and the abundance of cars produced under the nameplate " Skyline." The release of this vehicle was launched in 1955, when the Skyline ALSI-1 model was released. The car was created in Prince Motor Company. This company was created in 1952 by the car company Tama, which, in turn, was founded by Tachikawa Aviation Company.
The last company was engaged in the production of fighters for the Second World War, and in 1952 he began to produce electric cars Tama. In honor of the emperor of Japan, Hirohito, Tama decided to rename in Prince Motor Company. The company began to produce cars of gasoline slope instead of electrocars.
Prince was able to use the power unit designed by employees of the Fuji Precision Industries division created by Nakajima aviation company. When 1954 came, the company decided to unite (Prince Motor Company and Fuji Precision Industries).
It is noteworthy that in 1966 the Government of Japan recommended that large companies that can compete in the international market and counteract foreign manufacturers to be introduced into the local car market. As a result, Nissan was united with Prince, as well as Toyota connected with Hino and Daihatsu.
It turns out that from the 67th year, Prince production was sold under the Nissan or Datsun brand. Despite this, the Prince department still functions in the Nissan division and is responsible for Skyline's stylistics.
Interestingly, Nissan Skyline in the Japanese literally means the heavenly line, horizon.
Skyline Alsi (I generation 1957-1963)
Alsi-1 series. Such machines were made in 1957 and 1958 in the body of Sedan and Wagon. Used the Prince brand and on Japanese standards the model was a luxurious machine. A total of 33,759 vehicles sold. The car possessed frankly "pro-American" design and equipped with 1.5-liter (1,482 cubic centimeters) of the GA-30 power plant, which produced 60 horsepower (44 kW).
The number of revolutions reached 4,400 revolutions per minute. Weighing model of about 1,300 kilograms, and maximum speed It was at the level of 140 kilometers per hour. In a constructive plan, Nissan Skyline I generation was quite simple, for example, the dependence suspension of the DION type was stood behind, where it was connecting rear wheels Light beam and still fixed gear gear.
When 1958 came, the car decided to update (ALSI-2), and it turned out in agreement with the newest American fashion 4 headlights of the headlight and the GA-4 power plant, where there was an OHV valve mechanism. The volume slightly increased to 1,484 cubic centimeters, but the capacity increased to 70 horse forces (52 kW).
The ALSI-2 series was almost the same as the debut version, except for another nameplate on the hood and the only big horizontal type crossbar on the grille. In addition, since 1962, the coupe and convertible, which received the name BLRA-3 began to collect the coupe and convertible.
The car had an Italian stylish design from Giovanni Michelotti and 1.9-liter 96-strong (72 kW) Power Aggregate GB-30. Produced in just a couple of years 60 such models. All wines a huge cost (almost 2 times more expensive than the serial version of Skylain). Together with other reasons, the release of cars decided to stop, so the bet was decided to do on the next series S 50-E, which received a more modest price tag.
Skyline S50 (II generation 1963-1968)
Prince Skyline S50-E was released in 1963 and was produced until 1968 in the body of Sedan (S50) and wagon (W50). The novelty possessed a new four-cylinder "engine" G1, with a volume of 1,484 cubic centimeters and 70 horsepower. If you compare the vehicle with your progenitor, then the car possessed a more angular shape.
The second generation of Nissan Skyline has four round overall headlights, which became the "branded" designation of Skyline, remaining unchanged for many families up to the version R34. This version It has a couple of large round stop signals and a couple of swivel lights smaller.
Nissan Skyline II generation walked in two versions - a three-stage gearbox and a more sporty four-stage transmission. The last option got sports seats to once again Allocate your own character, and the option with a 3-speed box equipped with seats only ahead. When 1967 came, the C50 series was replaced with a series of C57, equipped with the latest force aggregate G15.
It received a volume of 1,483 cm³, four cylinders and 88 horsepower. This motor was the most powerful in Japan at that time. In total, sold about 114,238 cars. In 1964, Prince decides to create a Skyline GT racing machine that will receive a 6-cylinder Motor G-7 from Gloria S40. As a result, the base of the wheels increased by 200 millimeters, and also organized a special attachment for the six-cylinder "engine".
Initially, there were only a modest number of these machines for participation in the GT Competitions, which became very popular. The company's management decided to launch a vehicle into a serial issue. As a result, the final model gave the beginning of the S54 series and got the name Skyline 2000GT.
She was released in two versions. GT-A was equipped with a G7 engine where there was a single carburetor with a capacity of 105 "horses". The GT-B version was already with the three carburetors of 40DCoe-18 Weber, a 5-speed gearbox with more closer gear ratios, 99-liter fuel tank, full set of tools, differential increased friction, amplifier brake system and a power unit with high compression.
Both versions possessed front disc brakes with 2-piston calipers and rear alloy drum brakes. Cars that have been released later took air flow through ventilation with ball inventories of a small window that have been added to the dashboard. For competitions used only the GT-B model.
The result of the racing was as follows: "Japanese" was able to complete the race on the 2nd place, almost overtaking the victorious model of Porsche 904GTS, which was almost full racing machine. Such a result simply could not help but surprise, taking into account the fact that the Japanese model was represented by a four-door sedan. The C54 model was released until 1968, so it served as the foundation for the appearance of the legendary Skyline.
Skyline C10 (III generation 1968-1972)
Models of the 1500 series, which replaced C50 in the summer (July) of 1968, were produced until 1972. Vehicles were produced in two body versions - a 4-door sedan and station wagon. They had a power plant G15 from C57. The same machine, but the G18 motor was sold under the index of 1800. Such cars were more applied the elements of Prince and were the latest Skyline, produced under the Prince brand. All other versions of Skyline have renamed Nissan Skyline.
Skyline 2000GT (GC10 Series). Exactly, like all other options for derivative series C10, GC10 (G-installed in GT), mainly designed by Prince employees, despite the fact that these cars had already had its name Nissan Skyline 2000GT. Vehicle Presented in 1968 (2 months after the line 1,500) and initially produced in 2 versions - 4-door sedan (GC10) and 5-door hatchback.
After 1970, began to produce and coupe (KGC10). The car was almost the same as the last version of S54 GT-A, which was equipped with a six-cylinder engine instead of the previous four-cylinder. The two thousandth version had a L20 power unit, which received a volume of 1,998 cm ³ and 105 horsepower.
SKYLINE 2000GT-R (PGC-10 line).Already in 1968, the company submitted to the public a new 1 500 series and the version is comparable with the past GT-A (GC10 series). However, the public was waiting for a replacement for GT-B. I had to wait almost a year when it appeared new model - In 1969, GT-R was released.
It is new-minced car Nissan. Skyline GT-R was ready to write world history.
New Skyline 2000GT-R received the S20 power unit with a working volume of 1,998 cm³, which issued 160 "horses", which was comparable to Porsche 911 (the German was also produced in those times). This power plant was almost the same as the GR8 for the racing version of Nissan R380, which was able to win the third Japanese GP in 1966, ahead of Porsche Carrera 6.
Since the model was intended for racing routes, Phc10 was a light model that did not have a heater and radio, however, from the outside was similar to any other four-door sedan. Two years have passed and the option of the GT-R coupe was introduced in March 1971. Thanks to a shortened wheelbase and less weight, managed to improve maneuverability, if compared with a 4-door version.
The novelty continued the racing pedigree past versions and reached 33 victories for one and a half years of participation in races, which continued 50 victories of KPGC-10. In 1972, the release of these cars decided to stop.
Skyline C110 (IV generation 1972-1977)
There was a pair of main versions - 1600GT and 1800GT. Two versions had derived engines G15, G16 (1.6L) and G 18 (1.8L), respectively. In total, Nissan Skyline C110 sold in the amount of 539,727 cars, which is quite a few. The third version was named 2000GT-X and compared with C10 2000GT.
Such a car had an improved version of the L20 power plant, producing 130 horsepower instead of 109 past. The most powerful machine from the list was 2000 GT-R, which possessed the unchanging version of the "engine" S20 with a capacity of 160 "hooves".
Like the predecessor, the car could go in the body coupe and a four-door sedan. In total, 197 copies were made, which were considered the last, which carried the letters GT-R for more than decades. It is noteworthy that they did not apply for sports races.
Skyline C210 (V generation 1977-1981)
Over the entire production period, 539,727 cars managed to sell. Abroad, as before, was sold under the Datsun brand. Like the third generation Nissan Skyline, the C210 series was released in 4 versions. It is worth noting that due to the fuel crisis and more strict requirements of emissions, the GT-R version was removed from the release and instead of the top option appeared model Skyline 2000GT-ES (KGC211).
The vehicle appeared in the spring (April) of 1980 and had a new turbo version of L20, called L20ET, which allowed to produce 140 horsepower. Such a power unit lost in GT-R power, however, in the role of contrast to the C20, was able to comply with emission standards and gave the start of the new stage of the Skyline's story - the first motor with turbocharging.
The standard modifications assigned the name 1600ti and 1800ti, which received L16 and L18 motors, respectively, instead of the past power units of the divisions "G". Old model 2000GT-X "Lost" X, and received the name of 2000GT, which possessed the L20 constant engine with a capacity of 130 "horses".
SkyLine R30 (VI Generation 1981-1985)
In 1981, the public was introduced by Nissan Skyline R30, which was built on the C31 Laurel platform. The new sixth generation of Nissan Skyline led to the company's new policy. "Six" was significantly different from past cars produced, the car became easier, more and returned to sports competitions.
All auto models, in addition to the wagon, possessed the rear round lanterns, which served as a distinctive element of Skyline. The top versions of the Skyline R30 could be configured on the stiffness of the suspension, and during the movement. Until the end of the 20th century, all other Skyline families received the designation R3X.
It was Nissan Skyline R30 that became the first mass production car in Japan with a custom suspension while driving.
New versions came out in August 1981 and had five different models. Their appearance was angular. Many specialists say that the company stepped back to the sports past Skyline. Such models have new engines, instead of the previously installed L16. These were six-cylinder Motors 2000GT and 2800GT.
Following how the Japanese company decided not to produce GT-R, the skype line did not possess any DOHC motor (the motor with 2 camshafts installed at the top). When the oil crisis ended, turbocharged "cars", however, DOHC has not yet been used.
Especially for this it was decided to release RS Skyline in October 1981. The car could buy a sedan and coupe in the body. It was installed on it two two-liter fj0e engines, which developed 150 horsepower. The power plant was designed specifically for competitions. In 1983, the "engine" was able to improve by installing the turbine.
As a result, the power unit was called FJ20ET (T- speaks of the installed turbine), issuing 190 horse forces. A little later, it was upgraded to 205 "mares" by introducing an intercooler. This model has become known as RS-X or TURBO C. It was not only the most powerful version Skyline for those times, but also the most successful racing machine.
SkyLine R31 (VII generation 1985-1989)
Due to the fact that the R30 line was very popular, the leadership of the Japanese company decided to leave the appearance of almost such as last generation, therefore the R31 series was similar to R30. The vehicle debuted only in the four-door body. Due to the prevalence of exquisite cars and Skyline began to have an expensive finish, and it seemed to have missed the "sports" inspiration.
The full-time car for those times was considered 1800L, which used the four-cylinder sa 18 motor, 1.8 liters. Such a "engine" developed 100 horsepower. However, R31 also introduced a new motor seven - RB20 power settings installed in Passage GT.
Separately, it is possible to highlight RB20DET, which is a two-liter six-cylinder row turbocharged DOHC motor, which develops 180 "hooves" from 6,400 revolutions per minute. It was a debut in a huge family of RB26DETT motors. They were equipped with later GT-R and other Skyline models up to the R34 line.
GTS coupe.Buyers were tuned to the version of the R31 coupe until the GTS surprised the demo chairs in May 1986. This double vehicle had a RB20DET motor from Passage GT. When 1988 came this car was renamed GTS-X and received an upgraded version of RB20DET, which gave 190 horsepower.
Among important functions in the novelty, you can select the HICAS installation (rear wheel grilling system), which was first installed in Skyline for the first time. Such electronics still applies on top machines of the current Skyline. Thanks to such a system, the controllability of the car is significantly improved.
The most common from the GTS version is called GTS-R, specially created for competitions. Power in 180 "hooves" in the basic performance, though not children's toys, however, still lost 205 "horses" RS-X R30. Based on this, management decided to release the GTS-R Skyline R31 in 1987 with the RB20DET engine, which provided 210 horsepower.
This happened to achieve thanks to the turbochargers and graduate manifiers. Japanese specialists in addition adjusted the motor, and a large number of other parts of the car were tuning, which provided GTS-R to a more sporty character. Such vehicles released a limited number - 200 copies.
SkyLine R32 (VIII generation 1989-1993)
With the onset of 1989, the Skyline R32 series has been updated. All of its numerous representatives received improved sports qualities and accurately tuned running. The car was produced in the body sedan and double coupe. In addition, for the first time the Japanese decided to produce the All-wheel drive version of GT-R.
The old line of power plants decided to remove from the release, so it turns out that the machines have a two-liter ordinary six-cylinder 155-strong RB20DE engine. More "sports" versions, such as GTS-T had an RB20DET power unit, which was placed under the hood GTS-R31, however, it had an increased power to 212 "horses".
Later, modifications with a 2.5 liter 180-strong DOHC RB25DE appeared. After the latest version of GT-R released, the new model Skyline GT-R appeared in 1989. For obvious reasons, many expected from the novelties very much because of the beautiful heritage, which was all in memory. However, this car turned out to be the worst of all GT-R.
In those days, it was considered very difficult to repeat the achievement of PGC10's on the track until the model of the new Skyline R32 GT-R, which quickly earned the nickname godzilla. Novelty Skyline GT-R went only in the form of a 2-seater coupe and used a whole list of high technologies designed to improve the smoothness of the course.
It was in GT-R who decided to apply the ATTESA system controlling the all-wheel drive system of the car. Attesa taught to transmit torque from the rear wheels to the front in those moments when necessary. Thanks to this, it was possible to "drift", which was quite difficult to do with AWD.
After that, Introduced new version The proprietary system of grilling the rear wheels is Super-Hicas, which allowed this machine to be one of the best, if not the best in the world. "Japanese" possessed not only excellent control characteristics, but also had one of the most advanced motors - RB25DETT, which received a volume of 2.6 liters, DOHC, a double turbine and 280 "horses".
Such a power plant was a purely racing motor produced only for the competition, due to the Japanese conditions to contain the maximum power of 280 horsepower. If we talk for upgraded options, then their power could reach 1,300 horse forces. It is worth noting that even the basic machines reached a mark of 60 miles per hour only in 4.8 seconds, which is comparable to Ferrari 355.
The novelty was not positioned for street competitions. It was developed for the regulations of the Japanese "group A" of racing requirements. Racing is the place where GT-R was at the height. Many drivers were able to win a large number of races, because of which this class decided to cancel, since no one wanted to compete with the leading version of Nissan.
Skyline R33 (IX generation 1993-1998)
R33Skyline.GT-R.R33 line was quite similar to the last model - R32. The "machine" was a sports, although its dimensions and mass rose a little and it became not so agile. The increased mass was compensated by a power unit - a new 2.5-liter RB25 with 6 cylinders, which developed 190 "horses".
The engine was installed in GTS 4 and GTS25. For GTS25T, there was a more powerful RB25DET that has already issued 255 horsepower. The hard luggage lay on R33's, after he was presented in 1995. The last version was quite successful (almost invincible), and no one believed that new GT-R Could change the line of R32 for the better.
It may be surprised, but the new R33 Skyline GT-R machine exceeded the last model almost in almost all parameters, despite the weight gain. Under the hood, a 280-strong RB26DETT engine was installed, which possessed a wider range of torque values \u200b\u200bdesigned to make the motor more flexible. In addition, the novelty was equipped with upgraded ATtesa-ETS and Super-Hicas systems.
Nismo 400.R.and GT-R.LM.. NISMO is a division of Nissan Motorsports, which is responsible for cars, specialized for the Last "Group A" class races - JGTC (All Japan Grand Touring Car Championship) - National Racing Competitions of Japan. Due to the fact that the power of motors in the country was limited to a mark of 280 horsepower, the most accurate adjustment of the power plant was required for victory, as it was very difficult to win differently.
Nissan Skyline GT-R LM GT1 Japanese specialists produce in the winter (February) of 1996 version 400R, which represents the machine produced in a limited quantity (only 99 cars). Skyline participated in the 24-hour endurance competitions of the GT1 class "Le Mans" in 1955 and 1996. It turns out that Nissan represented GT-R LM and 400R as "road" models of racing machines.
For their ability, the improved version of the "engine" RB26DETT was answered. The LM model was completed with a 305-strong engine, and 400r - 400-strong. It is a pity, but only one GT-R LM machine was built to participate in competitions. To date, this vehicle is located in the museum. In addition to all, 400r possessed an increased RB26Dett engine with a volume of almost 3 liters - RBX-GT2.
There was a pair of turbines and 400 horsepower at 6,800 revolutions per minute. Podcast power could not not affect the car exterior. You can note the presence of large wheels and wider spoilers, wheeled arches, lower landing. All this made it possible to improve their appearance, if we compare the "machines" with a rather unbroken standard GT-R.
Four-door GT-R AUCHH. "Autech" is a branch of Nissan, who specializes in tuning machines. This car Represented the four-door version of GT-R33, which was released by a limited series specifically to the 40-year celebration of Nissan Skyline.
Auto got all the basic systems of GT-P and the armchair of the bucket type. It turns out that it was the same GT-R, only more practical. Nismo also produced a tuned car GT-R AUCHH, equipped with a spoiler from Nismo 400R and a 380-strong engine. Such a novelty was very attractive during her debut on Tokyo Motor Show.
SkyLine R34 (X generation 1998-2000)
Some people, the R33 line seemed too massive, and many of them believed that P32 was the best skyline. Given these wishes, the Japanese company decided to release a new Nissan Skyline R34. The new line is more oriented with representatives of P32 than on their immediate predecessor. As a result, created a car that turned out to be more sporting than the model of the R33 line.
Exterior SkyLine GTR R34
The exterior of the vehicle is simply excellent, there is aggressiveness, which had to do with many car enthusiasts. The front of the car has a relief hood, aggressive narrow halogen optics and a small radiator grille between the headlights. Front bumper It turned out great and aerodynamic.
He has a black lip, small air intakes and individual rotation signals. The frontal resistance coefficient of Nissan Skyline in the body of the coupe was 0.38. V-SPEC racing cars could be distinguished at a lower landing (height road Suit was lower).
The side part has a bit bloated wheel arches and a back mad arched, which looks a little non-standard. Introduced a slight stepper at the bottom and in the middle, however, in the middle part it represents a simple line. In 2000, the V-SPEC 2 model began to produce, which was distinguished by the hood made of carbon fiber, which was easier than the aluminum hood for the past version.
The rear has four halogen round headlights. In addition, you can notice a small lid luggage compartment With a massive spoiler. The lid of the trunk received a small retrying of the stop signal. The large embossed forage bumper was installed large rear running lights, and the exhaust system is located under the modest diffuser.
Generally appearance Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 has become more stringent, bright and youth. Previously, the Japanese was released only in the body version of the coupe, and now sedans began to appear, which differed from past models only by branded round rear lamps.
Interior Skyline R34.
The internal decoration of the Nissan Skyline R34 car looks like a truly sporty. For example, there are forging of sports type, perfectly cope with the holding of the driver and the passenger in turn. Free space in the front is more or less enough, but there is definitely not worth the high level of amenities.
It is necessary to tune in to a rigid driving manner. The car has five landing places, so 3 people are placed behind, but again the free space there is a bit. Before the owner appears a semi-sports three-spoke steering wheel.
The dashboard according to current trends is simple and has large analog speedometer sensors, power unit revolutions, fuel level and motor temperature. The first thing that rushes into the eye inside the salon Nissan Skyline - the display diagonal exactly 5.8 inches. Looking at the monitor, you can see information about the current engine temperature, oil condition and intercooler.
Versions V-SPEC allow you to display the schedule of longitudinal and transverse accelerations and the temperature regime of the intercooler. On the central console you can see the "poor" in modern parameters. At the top there is a regular radio, which no longer falls on most machines, and below the climate control unit, which was created like a radio tape recorder.
Below is the department for smallers, ashtray and cigarette lighter. The tunnel has a large transmission selector, a small box for small things and a properly supplied parking brake handbrake. Salon Nissan Skyline P34 has a simple dark upholstery and hard plastic, differs in modesty and a little asceticism.
Released cars at a later time have already had a leather interior and multiple additional optionswhere you can include the NISMO dashboard and the Sparco Champion Limited Edition steering wheel with a quick removal mechanism.
Specifications Nissan Skyline R34
Fans were able to love the RB26DETT power plant, which at a pressure pressure of 1 bar, develops 280 horsepower and 392 Nm of rotating efforts. The volume of the turbocharged RB26DETT system was 2.6 liters. Since 2002, Japanese specialists have demonstrated the version of NUR4. The word NUR serves as a reduction from Nürburgring - such a car can accelerate to a mark of 300 kilometers per hour.
It is worth noting that only 1,000 models of such a plan have been made. In addition to excellent speakers, Skyline is highlighted by tensile for the road fabric. Vehicle is like with rear wheel driveand with fully drive.
The all-wheel drive technology ATTESA E-TS in a regular position transmits 75 percent of the torque on the rear wheels, however, when slipping or demolished, the central differential is blocked and the torque efforts are separated between the axes in the 50/50 ratio. With the help of a special HICAS system, in emergency modes The rear wheels are rotated on a small angle, which significantly increases the rate of passage of aggregates.
Despite the fact that the Skyline line itself is associated with truly hurricane motors, there are models with more modest characteristics. For example, the same RB2ode boasts a volume of two liters and 155 hp.
The transmission role for Nissan Skyline R34 is the four-stage automatic and six-speed mechanical box Getrag. The Skyline SkyLine Nismo Z-Tune is considered to be SkyLine from Basic Skyline. The model has a 2.8-liter 500-strong power unit with a torque of 540 nm at 5,200 revolutions per minute.
Niso workers assured that this power plant without difficulties can develop 630 "horses", however, then it would have to clean the exhaust system. The sound of the exhaust NISMO Z-TUNE fits into the standards for the sound of the exhaust system. A total of 20 copies.
When the car is gaining speed, the person simply pulls into the seat overload in 1.59g, and if they dramatically slow down, the driver is reached up to the windshield with a strengthem in 2G. Based on this, it follows that it is simply necessary to fasten on such a machine. Ahead in Nismo installed 365-millimeter brake discs, and the brake pads to the brake disc pressed with six brake cylinders.
The first hundred is achieved in 4.9 seconds, and the maximum speed at 250 kilometers per hour. Stylish, light and compact machine Nissan Skyline GTR R34 can give odds even recognized leaders in his niche. Even the most topical "machine" has a number of advantages, among which you can select four-wheel drive, a six-speed mechanical gearbox GETRAG gesture, a six-cylinder Motor Twin Turbo, which gives 327 horse forces with limiting torque in 4,400 revolutions per minute.
In addition, there is an independent multilink suspension, a tougher chassis. I would like to note that the modification of 1999, which was a regular model of which GT-R, with a 2.6-liter 322-strong RB26DETT motor, which has a twin-turbo supercharger, was recognized as the most popular in this lineup.
Skyline V35 (XI generation 2000-2007)
The next generation, V35, was represented in the summer of 2000 and was the first to have created after the merger of two companies - Nissan and. As the basis, a new model used the FM platform as Nissan 350Z. Changes in comparison with the previous family were very serious - instead of the rb-shaped power units, V-shaped VQs were installed.
In addition, no car possessed turbocharged, no longer produced a version of GT-R. All cars went with the drive to the rear wheels, and the version in the body sedan had a four-wheel drive. It was Nissan Skyline V35 Coupe who was the first car of the Skyline series, which was in the formal procedure for the United States of America.
It is important to mention that in the US, a similar model was sold under a slightly different name - Infiniti G35. But other differences, in addition to the name and emblems, it was simply no - these were two identical cars.
Exterior Skyline V35
From the outside, the exterior of fresh Skyline, obviously differed. Initially, Japanese specialists decided to change the design of the headlights. As a result, the front optics repeats the front arches lines and goes back to the body racks. Changes touched and bumper, which has become more streamlined.
Together with the bumper, the radiator lattice was changed, which became wider and now decorated with chrome. It is difficult not to notice that the appearance of Nissan Skyline V35 now did not differ sporting and aggressiveness. Rather, it is a more elegant and luxurious car. The car, after a while looks good to today. Separately, you can highlight the version of the coupe.
Interior Skyline V35
The interior decoration is more close to the business class, so call it aggressive and sports, exactly as the exterior will not work. The interior decided to paint into calm dark tones, where there is a pleasant decoration "under aluminum". Before the driver appears a three-spoke steering wheel having adjustments.

At the change of the car in the Body R35, it came, who lost in the name of the Skyline console, as well as the sedan version. Name SKYLAN is now on domestic market In Japan, they call Infiniti Series G.
Sales market: Japan. Right steering
The tenth generation of Skyline (Body of the R34 series), which appeared in May 1998, came out with the delay of the expected period for one year, slightly violating the usual model of model change. The developers of the new model continued the course to support the image of Skyline as a car, without which it is impossible to know the joy of movement. The size of the next generation was reduced, the car received the wheelbase of the intermediate between the R33 and R32 series - 2665 mm. New Skyline showed its magnificence as a rear-wheel drive sports sedan. Due to the body, the stiffness of which was not equal, the turbine row 6-cylinder engine with an intercooler, DOHC, etc. The running characteristics were brought to perfection. According to the high-speed road, the car rushes, keeping full calm; On the mountain road, the driver will be able to feel all the charm of the movement of this car. But not only the suspension is deserved separate attention - the appearance of the car, as in the former generations, is inherent in the luxury and rapid recognizable appearance.
As the GT class, Skyline must match the idea of \u200b\u200bcomfortable movement on public roads - not only in terms of driving qualities, but also in part of internal amenities. In the new generation, the salon has become even more convenient and luxurious. The interior, as appropriate, is made in the sporting spirit, very expressive space in front of the driver: the instrument shield is distinguished by large sizes of the tachometer and speedometer, a voltmeter, oil temperature sensor, pressure gauge are located in the center of the panel. Sports three-spoke steering wheel - with leather braid. In the equipping of top versions, it includes: xenon headlights, leather interior, full electric car, hatch, remote key. The standard for the 25GT-x Turbo version was 2din-magnetol with a CD player and AM / FM tuner with eight speakers of the audio system, which takes into account all the salon nuances and creates a surround sound space that ensures a complete feeling of reality. In 2000, restyling was held, and after a year, in 2001, the 11th generation of Skyline appeared. The model "lived" is only 3 years.
In the tenth generation Skyline, as well as in the previous one, the engines of 2-2.5 liters are used. In the modification of the 25GT-x Turbo equipped with a turbine engine, a capacity of 280 hp was achieved, which was a surprise for many. This motor (RB25DET), equipped with a NVCS timing phase change system, also issues a decent torque - 334 nm at 3200 rpm, providing good fuel savings and high sensitivity of the accelerator, forcing the incredible sensations from acceleration. The more modest atmospheric RB25DE (NVCS) issues 200 hp And 255 Nm of torque, which, of course, is incomparably less, but in general, too, good for the car weighing one and a half tons. For a purely urban ride, a two-liter RB20DE motor is fits, the same equipped with a NVCS system, with a capacity of 155 hp (186НМ / 4400 rpm). By the way, this generation was the last to be used by traditional row "six".
Unlike the rear-wheel drive versions, the modification of the Skyline "GT Four" and "GT-X Four" have a drive to all four wheels, traditionally retaining the previous approach - the front wheels are connected when the rear is slipped. In addition to the 5-speed manual transmission, the complete demand was used with a 4-speed "machine" with a mode that gives the possibility of switching velocities manually. Nissan Skyline suspension is completely independent, multilinkovaya. Together with a body with high rigidity, an excellent embodiment of the idea of \u200b\u200ba car that creates the "best driving pleasures" is ensured. Noise isolation is just ideal, and the new release system provides even greater acoustic comfort.
In the new generation, the manufacturer demonstrated a more advanced approach to Skyline security, having marked over the experience of the previous generation, whose separate modifications were lack of appropriate equipment. Now all modifications are standardly equipped with front airbags (lateral - option), aBS system and emergency braking system, safety belts with pretensioners and load limiters. Also, standard equipment includes stiffness amplifiers in the doors, attachment of the children's chair. For expensive complete sets, an anti-slip system was proposed standard.
Nissan Skyline R34 series has absorbed all modern technological achievements, ensuring a place on the pedestal legendary machines. On the market, this generation is presented in a rather diverse, with a wide range of prices, often offered inexpensive "cuts" for spare parts or as donors for the "spinning" folk craftsmen who have loved this model for excellent tuning opportunities.
Read completelyCurrently, the Nissan Skyline car is synonymous with speed, drive, adrenaline and power. It is amazing that when for the first time the Japanese creators released this model to the market, they did not even suspect what kind of success awaits her. Today, Nissan Skyline GT-R is a real icon, dozens bend to it, but what is there, hundreds of thousands of car enthusiasts around the world, and, it should be recognized, this respect is quite justified.
Despite the fact that official dealers Today is offered 11. generation Nissan. Skyline GT-R, in our today's review, I want to talk about the tenth generation of this sport car, because it deserves it for many reasons.
Before proceeding to a conversation about the technical component of the coupe, you need to lay a few words about its appearance. In particular, dimensions should be reported (4600x1785x1360 mm), clearance (140 mm), wheeled base (2665 mm), cutting mass (1560 kg) and tire size (245/40 R18). It will not be superfluous that this model is available exclusively with a full drive. With such data, we should expect a lot from the car, because we will not torment you long waiting and go to the story that it hides under the hood of this car.
Engine
Undoubtedly, Nissan Skyline is associated with most powerful motors, which is absolutely correct. GT-R R34 is aggregated by a 2.5 liter engine, which is able to give up to 280 hp. The engine is located longitudinally, cylinders - in a row.
Transmission
With "Tabun" 280 goals can cope only mechanical transmission. Nissan prepared a six-speed mechanics for Skyline GT-R R34.
Torkemose
Front brakes SkyLine GT-R R34 - disk, ventilated, rear - disc.
Dynamics
Well, finally we got to the most tasty. It is time to talk about what this "gun is capable", and run ahead want to tell that it is capable of much.
The maximum speed of Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 is 250 km / h. In order for this semi-trial Machine to get acused until hundreds, you will need only 4.9 seconds (by the way, the record today is 2.1 seconds, but this is with the power of Kara in more than 1000 hp). Agree, impressive!
Fuel consumption
Now you should talk about the appetite of this sport coupe. Of course, to expect that the car is charged in a similar way pleases the moderate fuel consumption, expressing soft language, somewhat naive. Nevertheless, Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 is not so voracious, how could it seem during the acquaintance with its dynamic characteristics. So, in the city on a hundred kilometers a coupe, about 16 liters of AI 95 consumes. On the track appetite is moderate, but still hard drive will eat less than 9 liters.
Naturally, for such a "income" manufacturers prepared the appropriate fuel tankIt will accommodate up to 65 liters of fuel.
Purchase Nissan Skyline GT-R34 is not cheap. Depending on its age, configuration and condition, the price of it can reach up to several tens of thousands of dollars. However, before you decide on the purchase, it will not be superfluous that this car is not created for measured family travels for the city. The coupe was created for those who do not accept restrictions, those who want to take everything and immediately, those for whom the speed and thirst for adrenaline are the main values \u200b\u200bin life.
Prove who on the track is the king, demonstrate to the surrounding its advantage, make the girls go crazy, and the coupe from Nissan will be your faithful companion, it will not let you down even in the most difficult moment, and aggressive, but at the same time such The submissive growl of his engine will become music of your life ...
