The rest were purchased by various garages and tuning companies. Only 38 of these were produced from the factory, with 12 of them going to Nismo for Super Taikyu racing. Nissan included a new R34 N1 engine with the car that featured N1 spec turbocharges and a N1 block. The N1 was a homologation special that was sold without air conditioning, audio equipment, the rear wiper, or the boot lining, however the ABS system remained. Like the R32 and R33 before it, the R34 GT-R was given the N1 treatment. This model stayed in production until October 2000, when it was replaced by the V.Spec II. Stiffer suspension was also included, along with a new front splitter, side splitters and a carbon fibre air diffuser. Compared to the standard GT-R the V.Spec had an upgraded ATTESA E-TS Pro system alongside an Active rear LSD. Nissan launched the V.Spec alongside the base R34 GT-R in 1999. Nismo displays were offered for an additional cost and included features like a G-Force meter, lap timer and an increase in the boost pressure measurement to 2 bar. Spec model added two extra features to the display: intake and exhaust gas temperatures.Originally, the display could show a total of seven different live readings, however this changed for later models. The 5.8-inch display could show information from oil and water temperature, to boost pressure and throttle position. While many cars today feature a display setup, the inclusion of the multifunction display on the R34 GT-R was a rarity for cars in 1999. The wheelbase was 2,665 mm and the total length was 4,600mm, with a width of 1,785 mm and a height of 1,360 mm.

It was a 2 door coupe with a front mounted engine, and a complex all-wheel drive system. Kozo Watanabe designed the R34 GT-R and it featured a similar layout to previous versions. Nissan painted the valve covers a cherry red as opposed to the black colour used in the R32 and R33. The R34 GT-R retained the much loved RB26DETT engine from its predecessors, the R32 and the R33. This was produced from January 1999 (when the first R34 GT-R’s rolled off the production line) to the end of production in 2002. The basic model of the R34 GT-R is simply called the ‘R34 GT-R’. Nissan’s R34 GT-R is one of the most iconic Japanese motor cars ever built, but did you know how many different versions of it there were? We’ve put together a list of all the versions of the car and we will give you a rundown of the history of R34 GT-R in the article below.
