You'd be surprised if I told you, but at this point we're making it our policy not to divulge the technical specs.

I can't belive that a Nissan Skyline has never completed a full racing season in north america. I wish your crew the best of luck and can't wait to see the car in action.

Re: Re: 500 Horsepower 2001 Nissan Skyline GT-R N1 to Make Speed World Challenge Debut

So is this car the exact same model as the Falken GT-R?



It looks identical and the horsepower figures are the same. Course I got my information and picture from Gran Turismo 4... The Falken is a blast to drive!(virtually).

That Falken car pictured is the Nurburgring 24 hour car. The 24 hour car had a little different motor, and a widebody.

The AF car is a stock N1 motor and normal width fenders. In 2001 the AF car came in 2nd overall to the Falken car by 1 point.

Tetsuo Suzuki from Shift that came over for the test at Willow Springs, actually built and prepared both the Falken Super Taikyu car and the 24 hour Nurburgring car.
