That R390 reminds me of a biscuit that was too soggy and just kinda flattened out while in the oven.
The Skyline and Silvia are pretty cool. I love the R34s so much more than any other Nissan.

BTW, the cars are the NISMO 400R, NISMO 270R and R390 Road Version.
The NISMO cars got their name because of the power outputs after tuning.

Actually No!
You see with the way the Fia GT1 championship unfolded starting in 1994, the rulebook had many loop holes it.
The original and most famous allowed a "street porsche 962 (a Group C car) to race as a street modified car from Dauer.
Car Wins the race, gets banned, rules rewritten.
Next the Mclaren F1 dominated in '95 and many manufacturers: Porsche, Mercedes benz, Nissan and Toyota began to build cars to go under this gt1 class. As in the group 5 days of the 70's, the rules allowed for modifications on an extrme level that the fia didn't expect.
"""The new manufacturers built "homologation specials", racing-bred cars that took full advantage of the new rules, to build quasi-prototypes with very limited production runs of 25 cars. """"
Nissan really (Tom Walkinshaw Racing) and Toyota (TTE) read the rule book to an extent that for the '98 & '99 seasons they realized that they would actually only need to build a single production car in order to meet homologation regulations, ""thus allowing TTE to have a car that would never truly be sold to a customer, meaning that any driver luxuries could be left out."" this really helped with the ts020's gas tank being called a trunk (yes really).
Damn im tired... please rep me! :D

hold on...I don't think that is a 270r. The s14 270r was made with the zenki s14 which was in 94. There was a limited production of that car. There should be s15 270r which was a prototype and was never sold to public.
Correct me if you guys have any proof, but as far as i know, there is no kouki 270r.

everything i got from wiki has got quotation marks around it. besides that i study motorsports history so i know all that info already.
so to answer your question. Finding a quick fact of wiki is easier than going into my book collection and finding the page!
