This Nissan Skyline GT-R has a modified 2.6-liter twin-turbo six-cylinder from an R34
An extensively modified 1990 Nissan Skyline GT-R is looking for a new home in the United States and while it¡¯s not cheap, it could prove to be a worthwhile investment.
The GT-R in question was imported into the United States and purchased by the seller in 2016. It retains the original right-hand drive layout and has been driven roughly 103,000 km (~64,000 miles) since new. For those in the market for an R32 Skyline that¡¯s bone stock, this is not the car for you.
Starting with the exterior, the Nissan is finished in Gun Gray Metallic and has Greddy rear fender skirts and a Nismo N1-style front bumper cover. It is also rocking 18-inch Advan GT Racing wheels with Nankang Sportnex AR-1 tires.
The serious modifications then start under the skin. They include new SPL Titanium Series front tension rods, Stance custom-valved ZR1 coilovers, and GT Tech upper control arms. The Bring a Trailer listing also notes the car is rocking aftermarket brake ducts, new brake lines, and EBC front and rear rotors. The ABS system and the four-wheel steering system have also been removed to add to the raw driving experience.
Then there¡¯s the engine. It is a 2.6-liter RB26DETT sourced from an R34-generation model and modified with 86.5 mm pistons, Tomei Poncams camshafts, ACL bearings, ARP main bearing and cylinder head studs, new turbochargers, and a HKS intercooler. Plenty of other changes have been done to the engine and dyno sheets reveal that it pumps out over 500 hp and 400 lb-ft (542 Nm) of torque.
Handling all of this power is a new five-speed manual transmission rocking a Nismo Super Coppermix twin-plate clutch. The GT-R also has new ATS Hybrid Carbon front and rear limited-slip differentials and a Tomei exhaust.
If we were to dream up a modified R32 Skyline GT-R, it would probably look just like this. What do you think of it?
