Factory Grades & Equipment
The Nissan Skyline BNR34 GT-R was produced in several factory specifications, ranging from the original GT-R to the performance-focused V-Spec and more comfort-oriented M-Spec. Although the versions share the RB26DETT twin-turbo engine and six-speed manual transmission, their suspension, aerodynamics, differential systems and interior equipment differ.
| Factory grade | Equipment and specifications | Main differences |
|---|---|---|
| GT-R Base | 2.6L RB26DETT twin-turbo, 280 PS, six-speed manual, ATTESA E-TS AWD, Brembo brakes and cloth sports seating | Original GT-R specification without the V-Spec’s active rear differential and additional performance aerodynamics |
| GT-R V-Spec | Base GT-R drivetrain with ATTESA E-TS Pro, active rear LSD, specifically tuned suspension and additional aerodynamic equipment | Greater emphasis on handling, rear-wheel torque control and aerodynamics |
| GT-R V-Spec II | V-Spec mechanical package, carbon-fibre bonnet with NACA duct and aluminium pedals | Carbon bonnet and revised sporting details distinguish it from the original V-Spec |
| GT-R M-Spec | V-Spec-derived performance equipment, Ripple Control dampers, more compliant suspension tuning and leather interior appointments | Comfort-oriented GT-R, with leather upholstery and a different suspension character |
| GT-R V-Spec II Nür | V-Spec II-based final edition with N1-derived engine enhancements, balanced engine components and gold engine cam cover | Limited final-production performance edition retaining the factory 280 PS rating |
| GT-R M-Spec Nür | M-Spec-based final edition combining its comfort-oriented suspension with the Nür engine enhancements and gold cam cover | Limited final-production edition combining M-Spec equipment with Nür mechanical upgrades |
All versions listed above were factory-rated at 280 PS. The Nür editions received special N1-derived engine components, but Nissan did not advertise a higher factory power rating. Interior equipment and factory options should be checked against the individual vehicle.
Australian Market Pricing
Due to strong worldwide demand and high prices in Japan, we generally recommend considering vehicles already available in Australia before importing an R34 GT-R. However, if you’re looking for a particular specification, colour or condition, we can help source suitable examples from Japan.
