nissan skyline r34

The tenth generation of the Nissan Skyline, produced from 1998 to 2000. Arguably one of the most recognizable iterations of the car.

This was the final Skyline generation to have a GT-R variant. The GT-R badge would again be put on hiatus until 2009, when Nissan released the Nissan GT-R as a dedicated supercar and successor to the Skyline GT-R line.

The R34 had several appearances in popular media. In several The Fast and The Furious films it is driven by Brian O'Connor, in Initial D it is driven by Hoshino Kozo, and in Wangan Midnight two R34s are driven by Yamamoto Kazuhiko and Goto Gen. It also remains a staple of many racing game rosters to this day, having also been the cover car for multiple Need for Speed games - namely Underground and Payback.
