It’s estimated that only 14 2001 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec IIs were imported into the U.S. and legalized by MotoRex before the operation was shut down. The U.S. government eventually pardoned and gave bond release to the 14 cars, so long as they were to be made NHTSA/DOT compliant. This particular Skyline was registered as a 1999 model when it was imported, but because of the NHTSA 25-year import law, most 2001 R34 Skyline GT-Rs won’t be eligible to enter the U.S. until 2026, making this NHTSA/EPA-compliant example very desirable and exceedingly rare. This right-hand drive car was driven about 18,000 miles by the late actor Paul Walker to promote various “Fast & Furious” movies.
Finished in Bayside Blue, it later received the black and gold accents it currently wears for several BF Goodrich ads in which it appeared. Of the 1,855 V-Spec II Skylines built, this is No. 672, featuring the RB26DETT twin-turbocharged 2.6L inline 6-cylinder engine with a plethora of performance parts such as NISMO carbon air inlet pipes, a GReddy radiator and intake manifold, a Garage Defend cooling panel and a Trust steel exhaust by GReddy. Nissan spent a great deal of time engineering and designing the Skyline, especially the RB26DETT engine, so it’s no surprise that this car retains the Nissan OEM airbox and independent throttle bodies.
Recently tuned up by Kenji Sumino at GReddy USA in 2022, the car channels power through a 6-speed manual transmission. The chassis has been built up to accommodate the power and sharpen the handling with Tein coilovers with electronically adjustable dampers, a lowered and stiffened suspension and Ray Volk Racing TE37 Saga Wheels with low-profile tires. With ATESSA all-wheel drive and HICAS all-wheel steering, the Skyline also has OEM Brembo steel brakes. The interior features bucket seats with patterned cloth upholstery, Sparco four-point harnesses and a 5.8-inch color LCD display with readouts for boost pressure, oil pressure and temperature displays.
