The leap from our 32 to our 33 was a major improvement for the R34. Who wasn't sleek like last time? The R34 is a blocky boy with angular cuts and aggressive features. Like a stillSmall divots on the fenders, direct air around the front wheels pull warm air out from the engine bay and cooling the brakes. As much as 100 degrees Fahrenheit that's a 53 centigrade. The air evacuation and new reworked front splitter work together to give the front end a lift coefficient of 0.1 which is basically nothing.

Under the hood, the turbo got a new ball bearing ceramic turbine, which decreased full-time and increased reliability. Our R34 engine also had more aggressive camshafts - even Powell baby! The new GTR was fitted with a 6-speed Getrag transmission, the all-wheel drive was better. The wheel steering was better, everything was better. And special editions had an even mo' better on top of that.

There was the V-spec, V-spec and 1B spec - he spec - Nervy spec, and 1M spec and M-spec Nur. And don't even get me started on the race cars. The R34 was a distillation of everything that made a GTR a GTR. So in 2001, Nissan unveiled the GTR concept, unlike the previous GTR models. This car would not be a souped-up Scotland, but its own thing entirely. The design team for this concept was led by Hiroshi Hasegawa who had worked on the Silvius 13 S14 and the R34.

The concept square shape and broad wheel arches were penned to look like the shoulders of a friggin' samurai. The taillights are definitely GTR, the only major deviation from the design if you think about it was the headlights which had a modern, more vertical Z-like look. The new GTR or R35 hit the market in 2007. No longer was the GTR powered by the RB26. It had done its task well, but it was time for something different, something new.

The BR35 de TT is an all-aluminum twin-turbocharged V6, every engine is assembled by hand in a clean room. And only the most experienced Nissan mechanics are allowed to work there. There's only four guys with 100 years of combined experience between them building the engines for every GTR and they deserve recognition.

I apologize. If I butcher your dam tsunami Aoyama Nobu Mitsuko zoo Izumi. She Lea and Takumi Kurosawa, thank you gentlemen for building this engine for us to enjoy. The VR38 initially made 480 horsepower that wasn't super powerful. But when has the GTR ever been about raw power? I'll give you a hint - never.

The VR was hooked up to an updated version of the Nissan Attessa system which prioritizes rear grip this time around. The combination of power and truly unbelievable all-wheel-drive grip made the GTR one of the hardest launching cars in history, achieving zero to 60 in a lightning-fast 3.2 seconds performance like that. Performance like that made the GTR a YouTube mainstay with thousands of videos showing off cars at blistering speed.

People say that it drives like a video game, like that's a negative. The only reason we know about GTRs is because of Gran Turismo 2. Of course, the ARK 35 drives like a video game and of course, there were special editions and racing versions like the 2008 Nismo GT500.

This car was so dominant that the Super GT League weighed it down with 100 kilogram ballast and it's still won the 2008 championship. It was the first car to achieve a championship with a weight penalty in a decade. The last team to do that was the Pennzoil team in '98 behind the wheel of a bright yellow R34 GTR.

I want to thank Kobe for putting up with all my crazy demands and never missing a deadline, and also developing the entire style of this show visually. Raghav for making the animations - all the other super-hard-working editors here don't. I want to thank Nolan, it likes positive thing. 100 episodes that's a century. Jessie you're my partner. Yes, I met you and my life changed. Eddie, you did the first one, use of the first few Nolan, you evolve this whole thing with me. You're my protege. I love you.

It was a big deal for NissanIt was a big deal for Japan to put that winning engine in a passenger car. Keep in mind that sports sedans like thisReally didn't exist back then unless you count the muscle cars that were at their peak in America at the timeBut those couldn't really handle the et are on the other handwellIt could with a hundred and sixty buff as can be horses and semi-trailing arm suspension the Skyline GTRWas an absolute maniac on the track. I racked up 49 dubsIt also earned itself a cute little nickname. It was boxy orJaco in Japanese.

The new car was a new level of new good they called itGreat starting in 1989The r32 GTR racecar was entered into the Japanese Touring CarChampionships group a the series it was designed to dominate a memberSo how did it go out of all 29 races and entered the r32?Yeah one uh-huhEvery okaySingle go on one of a whoano, IKnow, you know that blue Cal sonic car from Grand Turismo 4 f1 both in 1990 and 1994 JTCChampionship cementing it as the most famousr32 of all race cars in 1990 the r32 went over to the Nurburgring and ran in the 24-hour race andWon. It went to spa and won thereIt went to McCall and you guessed it it won there, tooBut the r32 's most impactful victories were still yet to comeGibson motorsport was a private racing team based in Australia and specialized in group a and Group C missins in1990 Gibson got their hands on a Nismo tuner32 race car unnecessary partsLike the air conditioning anti-lock brakes and rear windshield wiper were taken off homologation rulesmandated that Nissen built 500of these things for sale to the publicGibson was used to building the rear wheel drive r31 skyline and found that parts for the newAll-wheel drive car would be pay more expensive during the build process Gibson racked up a tab of over 1millionDollars with Nissen that's slightly lessThan I make for every episode of this show and they couldn't afford to do that every seasonSo Gibson decided they would just build missing parts themselves by the end of their run with the GTR a few years. LaterOnly the body front and rear cross members and the engine block were built by Ness and Gibson built everything elseThey also build the sickest guitarsGibson motorsport and the Nissen GTR won the ATCC group a championship in 19901991 and 1992 the absolutely crushing victories earned a nickname for those monstrousNYSSA's they were titans from the Land of the Rising Sun who smashed?anything in their path from then on the GTR would be known asThe gt-r achieved its last victory in Australia in the 1992 - II$1,000 after a controversial red flag finished the bright-redWinfield r32 sat in the winner's circle for the last time people were getting tired of seeingmissins win all the timeSo for the 1993 season the ATCC changed its rules heavily favoring the v8 powered FordsRegardless Naga nori Ito his team and Gibson motorsport had achievedNissan's goal of reclaiming the performance drone the r32 GTR was a great car. No doubtbut at this point in the storyIt shouldn't be a surprise that Nissen wanted the GTR to be even betterThe GTR team was now led by kozoWatanabeYo, there wasn't a better man for the jobRemember that Japanese Grand Prix back in the 60s?Well a young kozo was that the very first one and saw that old prince get defeated by the BritishAnd Italian race cars.
