First Nissan Skyline 1969

The C10 series of 1968, which began its development under Prince at the company's Ogikubo R&D centre in the suburbs of Tokyo, was marketed with a Nissan badge. By the time the C10 went on sale, the Prince nameplate had been completely phased out on cars and trucks. The dealer network selling the cars became thePrince channel of Nissan, and the marketing group stayed at the Prince headquarters in Mita instead of moving to Nissan's headquarters in Ginza. The C10 Skyline was launched with Prince's 1.5 L OHC G15 I4 like the S57. A 1.8 L G18 version was also available. A station wagon variant, known previously as the Prince Skyway, was offered with this generation. A hardtop coupé was introduced in October 1970.

The brake- and tail-lights were modified to square units, but now included dual units for both the left and right side of the vehicle. As the Skyline was now a Nissan product, it was repositioned above the Bluebird as a more sport-oriented sedan and coupe, while

968Oct the GC10 2000GT received a 2.0 L (1998 cc) L20 I6 engine like the Nissan Cedric instead of a Prince G-7 engine. The chassis was already designed to receive a straight six, to avoid the S54 extension problem. 105 hp (78 kW) was available from this new engine, in 1970 Nissan production Skyline 2000GT Automatic, in October 1970 Nissan introduced 2 Door Coupe.

GT-R[edit]

Nissan Skyline KGC10 GT-X (L20 engine)

The first GT-R Skyline appeared in February 1969.[11] Called the PGC-10 (KPGC-10 for later coupé version) internally and Hakosuka (ハコスカ) by fans. Hako (ハコ) means Box in Japanese, and suka（スカ） is short for Skyline (スカイライン; Sukairain). It used the 2.0 L (1998 cc) S20 I6. This new DOHC engine (which was designed by the former Prince engineers) produced 160 hp (118 kW, 180 N m), and was similar to the GR8 engine used in the Prince R380 racing car.

The GT-R began as a sedan, but a 2-door coupé version was debuted in October 1970 and introduced in March 1971. The cars were stripped of unnecessary equipment to be as light as possible for racing, and performed well at the track. The sedan racked up 33 victories in less than two years, and the coupé stretched this to 50 through 1972.

The C10 raced against many cars including the Toyota Corona 1600GT (RT55), Isuzu Bellett GTR, Mazda Familia (R100) & Capella (RX-2) – even Porsche. In late 1971 the new Mazda RX-3 became the GT-R's main rival. The GT-R managed a few more victories before the RX-3 ended the GT-R's winning streak.

2017 Nissan GT-R NISMO: Much Improved Interior

Official Photos and Info

After showing an updated version of the GT-R earlier this year, Nissan is now applying similar changes to the hard-core GT-R NISMO. There’s good news and bad news: The bad news is that there’s no more power than before, with the 3.8-liter twin-turbo V-6 making the same 600 horsepower. The good news is that the NISMO’s interior receives the same upgrades as the standard GT-R, a modernization that was long overdue for the aging R35 generation of Nissan’s performance flagship.

Although the NISMO version does without many of the standard GT-R’s more luxurious interior bits, the new cabin marks a significant improvement. Nissan has reduced the number of center-stack buttons from 27 to 11, and a new, larger 8.0-inch touchscreen can also be operated via a console-mounted control knob. Microsuede adorns the dash and the redesigned steering wheel, and the Recaro seats feature red microsuede inserts.


The GT-EX replaced the discontinued GT-R with a turbocharged engine, the L20ET. As installed in the recently renewed Nissan Cedric/Gloria, this had been the first turbo engine to power a Japanese production vehicle.[15] One notable aspect of the turbo versions was that they were not intercooled and there was no form of blowoff valve, only an emergency pressure release valve. As usual with Japanese cars of this period, there were four- or five-speed manuals and a three-speed automatic, with a column-shifted three-speed manual available on lower end cars and vans.[13]

The "T" designation on the L16T and L18T does not signify a turbocharger was included; it denotes that those engines came with twin carburetors. The L-series engines were all switched to the cross-flow Z-series in late 1978. The larger 2.4 litre inline-six was never offered in the domestic Japanese market; having been reserved for export. Export engines were rated in DIN horsepower, so while a Japanese-spec L24 promised 130 ponies, European market cars with the same engine only claimed 113 PS (83 kW). On the other hand, European buyers could also get the fuel injected L24E with 127 or 130 PS (93 or 96 kW) DIN, about on par with what the turbocharged GT-EX offered.[16][17] Originally marketed as the Datsun 240K-GT in Europe, the fuel injected version was sold as the Datsun Skyline in most markets where it was available. It has a claimed top speed of 186 km/h .

 Nissan GT-R 34 

In May 1998, the EN34, HR34, ER34 and BNR34 marked the introduction of the more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly RB25DET NEO engine. The RB20E engine was discontinued in the R34 base model (GT), and the RB20DE, after last being used in the R32 Skyline, was reintroduced in updated NEO guise. The R34 GT powered by the RB20DE NEO, coupled with a five-speed gearbox, became the most fuel-efficient straight-six Skyline to date (of any shape). " The 4-speed automatic transmission available on some models in the previous two shapes were discontinued. In its place, Nissan produced a 4-speed manumatic transmission for all of the automatic versions (Except the base 2.0L, which has a standard 5-speed gearbox). Only the 25GT-T coupe variant was sold in Singapore, New Zealand and Hong Kong from 1997 to 2000 respectively. They were the only three countries besides Japan that sold the R34 25GT-T model Skylines new. All Japanese Nissan Prince Store locations that sold the Skyline were renamed Nissan Red Stage.

The GT-R reappeared in 1999, with a revised chassis and other updates. The R34 turbos received a ball bearing core. The R34 N1 turbos had a metal exhaust wheel, and ball bearing center section. The turbo outlet pipes were changed from cast to formed metal outlets. The intercooler outlet side and rear turbo dump pipe had temperature probes fitted in the V-spec models. The biggest feature and most significant feature to the R34 GT-R that wasn't seen on any other model skyline was the display unit at the top of the dashboard. This display unit was very significant for the car at its time. This display showed many of the cars engine stats including boost pressure, oil temp, water temp and more. As a 1999 car this kind of technology was very rare and advanced at the time. The display was capable of showing the G-force that the car was under when driving and there was also a lap timer that could be started by a button that was located near the gear lever. There was a computer jack lead hidden underneath the left passenger side skirt that could be used to transfer driving data from the car to a laptop. This could only be done with a Japanese version of Windows and Japanese software, which today is very hard to come by. Other features such as the battery being located under the back seat of the car made more room available in the engine bay. The Nissan Skyline GT-R rivals are the Toyota Supra and the Mazda RX-7

Nissan Skyline was created as a family car as it was a four-door sedan, with a high load capacity and comprehensive safety equipment. Despite this, as time passed was given a sportier attribute because once it was released in its coupe and later the known GT-R.

With the watchword of inline engines equip and not V, a four-cylinder was used and then followed with the familiar six-cylinder arrangement, which was a great success. From 1974 model was available the GT-R name, which dominated local competitions of Japan.

In 1989, the Skyline underwent a great transformation began to equip the GT-R with RB26DETT, a DOHC six-cylinder inline engine with twin turbo with an output of 280 hp at 6,800 rpm. He owned four drive wheels, the HICAS system, which was steering angle to the rear wheels (4 wheel steering) next to the new ATTESA-ETS system, which generates an independent torque 4-wheel when it detects a loss of traction. This framework model a milestone in his time and was able to defeat such iconic cars as the Porsche 911, the Mazda RX-7 or the Toyota Supra. The model produced from 1989 to 1995 was called Skyline GT-R R32, later being created different improved versions (Vspec and Vspec II).

Such was the entrance of the R32 at that time that even the JGTC (Japanes Gran Turismo Championship) was created. Models like the Honda NSX, Mitsubishi GTO or Toyota Supra competed and still do in this championship. It was also used in competitions of Great Tourism Australia and New Zealand.

In 1996 the R33 GT-R model was introduced in the market, much longer than its predecessor and also equipped with an active LSD, one of the first to own it. Despite mechanically have the same potential as the R32 (also equipped the RB26DETT), measurements made it less competitive than its predecessor. This forced the technicians of Nissan to redesign the car for the release of the next version, the R34.
The GT-R R34 was sold in the Japanese market from 1999 to 2002, when it was completely stopped production. Continued outfitting the same RB26DETT of the previous 2 generations, but had built a stiffer to better withstand the torsion chassis had been improved brakes and suspensions and all the electronics had been redesigned, creating a ATTESA-ETS system and a completely new HICAS. Besides its equipment he had monitor on the dashboard with information on different parameters, such as the blowing pressure of the turbos, oil temperature gauge forces or G. During this period the model was improved and evolved several times, creating cars increasingly competitive. Below is a list of different models:
R34
R34 V Spec (victory specifications)
R34 V Spec II
R34 M Spec
R34 V Spec Nur (Nurburgring Nordschleife)
R34 Z-Tune

Even today the Skyline GT-R is the symbol of the success of Japanese engineering, to create a car capable of competing with other cars that can cost more than triple its price. It has also become one of the favorite by fans of cars high performance as removing restrictions engine and make some modifications it can deliver more than 800 hp (to fit the Japanese standard, the GT-R gelding came from the factory).

The Nissan GT-R 2016 also debuts new tires, with Y-spoke design and 20 ". Nissan ensures that have improved structural rigidity, and suspensions, to increase stability in quick turns overall speed cornering.

Shift paddles have moved from the steering column, which stood still and with sufficient size to operate them in the rotation, to move in solidarity with the new steering wheel, so that those changes gears in turn even more simple, comfortable.

As for the other section, the comfort, the Nissan GT-R 2016 would be presented with pingües improvements in the gearbox to provide a transition between softer marches, which yes we were throwing at fault, especially in low-speed maneuvering.

But the real improvements are none other than those that have been carried out to improve the quality of the interior, with new coatings and finishes with more details, which has long we had been demanding for justice in sports, that very powerful and resulting relative economic rivals, it remains a sport of more than 107,000 euros. It would appear that Nissan had heard our prayers, which we launched this year when tearing his testing a Nissan GT-R and Audi R8 in Ascari.
