The R34 was shorter and had a smaller front overhang than its predecessors. It is powered by the same 2.6-liter, twin-turbocharged, inline-six RB26DETT engine, this time paired with a 6-speed Getrag manual transmission, with power delivered to all four wheels. Many special versions were produced, including the V·Spec, V·Spec II, V·Spec II Nür, M·Spec, as well as the R-Tune and Z-Tune. Production ended in 2002 after 11,578 units, and the R34 eventually gained cult status due to its prominence in popular culture.
