Why it matters
The Z-tune is NISMO's ultimate R34 Skyline GT-R, created for the company's 20th anniversary after R34 production had already ended. Only 19 were built, two of them prototypes, which makes it among the rarest GT-R variants of any generation.
How rare is it?
Six separate kinds of rarity – never combined into one number.
Each kind of rarity is rated separately and never combined.
02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model productioncars built including two prototypes (20 planned) | 191 | Factory production | Independently researched |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
The Z-tune first appeared as a prototype at the NISMO Festival in Japan. Because R34 production had finished, NISMO built the customer cars in 2005 from low-mileage second-hand GT-Rs to mark its 20th anniversary. Each received the Z2-specification engine, an RB26DETT enlarged from 2568cc to 2771cc with new crankshaft, lighter pistons and rods and uprated IHI turbochargers, plus carbon-fibre panels, stiffened door frames, adjustable Sachs suspension and Brembo brakes. Twenty were planned and 19 completed; the price new was 16,900,000 yen.
