1995 NISMO Skyline GT-R LM

Nissan stopped competing in the Le Mans after 1990, but NISMO took its place. Their Skyline-based GT car – NISMO GT-R LM – was entered for Le Mans in 1995 and 1996. In 1995, this No.22 car (H. Fukuyama/S. Kasuya) was 10th overall and 5th in its class. It was modified to 2WD (FR) drive, a better choice for heavy vehicles. And unlike the No.23 car, it was powered by a Group N specification engine.
