For sale: Fully restored to new, 516hp Nissan Skyline R34 Z-tune

A Nissan GTR R34 is still one of the most desirable machines to come out of Japan, high up there with the NSX-R, R35 GTR, and other iconic Japanese machines. Sadly, they are aged and finding a used example in near perfect condition is close to impossible. Well almost impossible.

German tuner JAPO Motorsport is offering a near brand-new R34 GTR NISMO Z-tune for those willing to fork out the cash for it. The Essen-based tuner bought a stock 1999 GT-R and spent a lot of time and money tearing it apart and restoring it as close to the original as possible.

In putting it all back together, the tuner used original Z-tune parts (like the front skirts, mudguards and rear wheel housing) and original sil “KY0” paint which was exclusive to the Z-tune back then (only 20 Z-tune’s were made). Also part of the package art NISMO Z-tune five spoke wheels, Toyo semi-slick tires, alcantara leather upholstery, an updated multifunctional display, and a revised speedometer that now tops out at 320km/h.

The exterior is completely stock but the German tuner could not hold back from working on the internals. Power from the 2.5-liter straight six is now up thanks to GT RS turbochargers, a new intercooler, a racing suction/chamber kit, enhanced fuel injectors, and high performance spark plugs.

These mods contribute to the 516hp and 597Nm of torque that the new Z-tune now boasts. Just for the record, a standard R34 Skyline GTR churns out 327hp and 392Nm of torque while the standard Z-tune boasted 493hp and 540Nm of torque.

Other upgrades include a HKS clutch kit, an ARC strut bar, and StopTech brakes. There’s no indication of how much the entire restoration process costs but the restored GTR seen in the pictures here is available for sale for a princely sum of US$116,960.
