2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nür

Marking the end of the R34 GT-R was the 2002 Skyline Nür. The name stands for Nürburging, which is the track the car was initially tested on. It became available on the both the V-spec II and M-spec models.

An engine based on the N1 racing unit set the Nür apart from any other R34 Skylines. It used a specifically prepared block, pistons and connecting rods. Unrestricted, the N1 engine can push 450 BHP. To meet legal regulations, Nissan rated the car to 280 BHP.

1000 of these specially prepared skylines were offered, all of which were quickly pre-purchased.
