The 2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec II - abbreviated as Nissan GT-R '02[2] or Nissan GT-R R34[3] - is an AWD sports car by Nissan featured in all series titles except Forza Motorsport 6: Apex.
It is rewarded in Forza Horizon 4 for reaching level 4 in the Horizon Life Street Scene series.
Synopsis
The V-Spec II is part of the GF-BNR34[4] (abbreviated as R34) series, the fifth and final generation of the Skyline GT-R. The R34 was first produced in 1999 to replace the R33 and ceased production in 2002. The V-Spec II was released in 2000 as a track-focused model.
Developed prior to Nissan's takeover by Renault in 1999, changes to the car were not as drastic compared to the transition from the R32 to the R33. The RB26DETT engine, now fitted with more durable ball bearing ceramic turbochargers, delivers 327 hp (244 kW) and 293 ft·lb (397 N·m) of torque with a boost pressure of 11.4 psi (0.78 bar), which make the R34 more powerful than its predecessors. The R34 also switched to a six-speed manual transmission that allows for closer gearing.[5]
The R34 has a shorter wheelbase and smaller front overhangs than the R33 but also slightly more weight up front. Its curb weight is 3395 lb (1540 kg) in Forza Motorsport and Forza Motorsport 2, which was changed to 3417 lb (1550 kg) in all newer titles, making it the heaviest model of the Skyline GT-R. In comparison with the R33, aerodynamics were further improved for the R34 through a front undertray and rear diffuser that produce more downforce.
