The Calsonic Skyline GT-R is one of the most iconic touring cars of all time. The R32, built to compete in Group A touring car series dominated most of the races it entered. Racing series Gran Turismo helped expose the Calsonic Skyline to western audiences with its blue and white livery.

XCAR visits Endless to see how they put their 1200 HP Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32) Together. The car retains a twin turbo set up while upping the displacement to 2.7 litres. The standard gearbox was swapped out in favor of a sequential box and completes a quarter-mile in 9 seconds flat.

Nissan releases a sweet video highlighting the Skyline legacy from the beginning. The first Skyline would make its debut 1964 at the Japan Grand Prix. Although the Skyline didn’t beat its rival Porsche 904, the car would spark the interest of many spectators.

Petrolicious travels to San Francisco on a dark and moody day to visit Ivan, an owner of not just one but beautiful Nissan Skylines. Ivan Jaramillo shows off his beloved C10 Hakosuka and a C110 Kenmari, as I’ve said before I don’t think anything can compare to the distinctive sound of cars from this generation.

It’s been awhile since we’ve seen anything from Depth of Speed, but it looks like Josh is back at it and gearing up his second season. In his latest video Josh visits JDM Legends yet again to spend some track time with their old school GT-R.

HoonTV recently did a great interview with Kevin San who owns a Nissan 2000 GT, also known as the Hakosuka.

Check out the video below and don’t forget to check out Kevin’s build thread on JDMST here.

Getting your used car ad noticed is tough especially when the market is full of cheap economical beaters & repo’d luxury cars. One Skyline owner decided to kick it up a notch and create this comical ad. Quoted below is the ad, just in case it disappears!

I’ve been meaning to post the entire Depth of Speed series but I have always found myself distracted by hundreds of other things. Once I saw this video I knew I had to share it. If you haven’t heard of Depth of Speed, it is a 10 part mini series that Josh Clason is filming to helps other understand the history, passion and love that people have for the automotive industry. In his latest video, Josh revisits JDM Legends and learns why they love classic JDM cars. Eric from JDM Legends really hits the nail on the head when he describes current cars, they lack the character and personality of older Japanese cars.
