Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R driven by Paul Walker is for sale

Some of the best Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R cars can only be found in Australia, but one special copy driven by actor Paul Walker is offered for sale. It is a V-Spec II model that has only 34,000 kilometers (21,242 miles) on the odometer and is associated with the movie “Fast and Furious.”

Walker was not the owner of the car, but the company MotoRex. The car is equipped with a carbon bonnet, rigid suspension, Volk rims, Trust exhaust system, Momo steering wheel, Nismo gear lever, Greedy cooler and Sparco four-point seat belts for the driver.

When it comes to powertrain, the Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R is powered by a 2.6-liter twin-turbo engine with, as advertised, 276 hp (206 kW) but it actually had over 330 hp (246 kW) when it left the factory. Power is transmitted to all four wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission with rear differential and limited traction.

Although the price has not been announced, but given the popularity of the model and the fact that it was driven by the deceased Paul Walker, it will definitely not be cheap.

Nissan GT-R R35 is ending its European journey

Nissan has officially announced that it will stop producing the GT-R R35 sports model for the European market by the end of this month. It all started in 2009 when the first Nissan GT-R was introduced, and now due to strict European norms on noise regulation in cities but also strict rules on exhaust emissions, the Nissan GT-R is ending its European journey.

The Nissan GT-R R35 is powered by a 3.8 L twin-turbocharged V6 engine whose power has, over time, grown from the original 487 hp (358 kW) in the 2009 model to 608 hp (447 kW) in the current model. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission with manual shifting mode. It reaches 62 mph in 2.9 seconds with a top speed of 196 mph (315 km / h).

And while the Japanese car company is still considering whether the new Nissan Z will sell in Europe at all, the awesome GT-R R35 will be remembered as one of the best super sports cars of all time.
