S20 Engine

23,611KM / 14,671 Miles (TMU)


The 1971 Nissan Skyline GT-R, also known as the Hakosuka (meaning "box skyline" in Japanese), is a legendary car that marked the beginning of a performance icon. Here's a closer look at what made this car special:

Engine and Performance:

•Under the hood sits the legendary S20 inline-six engine, displacing 2.0 liters and featuring DOHC (Double Overhead Camshaft) technology. This advanced design for the time produced a respectable 160 horsepower and 130 lb-ft of torque.

•Power was delivered to the rear wheels via a smooth-shifting 5-speed manual transmission, allowing for a thrilling driving experience.

•The suspension setup consisted of a semi-trailing arm strut system, which provided responsive handling for a car of its era.

Exterior Design:


•The Hakosuka's boxy design, while seemingly simple, was a hallmark of early Japanese performance cars.

•Four round headlights, a sloping roofline, and a muscular stance gave the car an aggressive and purposeful look.

•Early models lacked front and rear spoilers, but enthusiasts often added them for a more aerodynamic appearance.


Interior Design:

•The interior was functional and driver-focused, prioritizing performance over luxury.

•Bucket seats offered good support during spirited driving.

•A tachometer prominently positioned in the center of the instrument cluster emphasized the car's sporty nature.

•Amenities were minimal, focusing on providing the driver with necessary information and controls.


Legacy:

•The 1971 Skyline GT-R dominated Japanese Touring Car racing in the early 1970s.

•Its success on the track and its unique design cemented its place in automotive history as a pioneer of Japanese performance cars.

•Today, the Hakosuka is a highly sought-after collector's item, with well-maintained examples fetching significant sums.


Additional Notes:

•Due to its limited production run (less than 2,000 units), finding a 1971 Skyline GT-R for sale is a rare opportunity.

•Owning a Hakosuka is not just about acquiring a car; it's about owning a piece of automotive history.

I Drove EVERY Nissan GT-R : Donut Media Drives most of the GT-R, and some non GT-R

Donut Media drives a lot of GT-R, and some non GT-R

We did help out a little with this video. We imported or help import nearly all the cars Every owner had to be willing to let Nolan drive their vehicle on track. Some cars are really hard to find in Southern California, like a real Ken & Mary "Kenmeri" GT-R. With only 197 cars total made, they are rare in the world, more rare in the US.  The first GT-R was not a 2 door, it was actually a 4 door, the 2 door came later.  However for the video, 2nd GT-R to nearly the last GT-R doesn't sound as good. Plus it gives the Otaku something to argue about, and tell Donut Media how wrong they got it.  In a perfect world, you could just snap your fingers and every make, model, and type of GT-R would just pop up, show up to a track on a SNOWY day in Southern California.  Yes, I said snow. 

And yes its Hakussss-ka, not HA-KO-SUK- KA. 

Inside the Kenmeri GT-R clone we have for sale at Toprank Importers

Drove Brian's R32 GT-R on the BBS LM and A052 up to Willow Springs, it started snowing on the way there. 

Snow meant the Toyota jacket came out. This Midnight Purple II R34 came in under Show or Display. 

Yes, it was really snowing at Willow Springs. Here is a MP2 R34 in the snow

The Donut Media crew scrambling in the snow


R33 LM BT2 or championship blue. I am more of a red guy, but I really like this blue. It could have also been called Calsonic Blue. 

Kenmeri and Hakosuka. The Hakosuka is a S20, or GT-R. Very early car. Most people say there are 1971's but this car is a 1970. 


Rain, snow, ice, sleet at Willow Springs

It was cold, and wet out there. But overall a fun day of shooting






Thank you to Nissan for sponsoring today’s video. Click here https://bit.ly/DonutNissanAriya to learn more about the all-new Nissan Ariya. We gathered every generation of the Nissan GTR and today, Nolan is driving them all to find out which one is the best.

Skyline and Skyline GT-R Generation Chart. From S21 to V37. Including R34





Thanks for posting this Luke.   We have some fun with the following two pictures. There are so many people out there in the world, that think the only Skyline that ever existed was a silver/blue R34 GT-R in Fast and Furious 2. They have no idea that R32/R33/R34 are all a very similar car, all with RB26, all wheel drive, and 4 wheel steering.

R's Day USA 2018 at Autoclub Speedway


#bluecar at R's Day USA 2018
R's Day USA 2018 was on October 6, 2018 at Autoclub Speedway in Fontana, California. The last two years were at Laguna Seca, but this year the event was a little closer to home( NO NOISE RESTRICTIONS). The R32 Nissan Skyline GT-R that I drove at the event, is the same one I have drove for the last two events. 2016.  2017. Same car I drove at Hoonigan.

Changes from last time. Bluecar Prep

  • Nismo R-Tune (Ohlins Flag R) coilovers. I managed to find a used set for a decent price, and they were worth every penny
  • GK Tech adjustable upper control arms
  • Brake ducts (unknown maker,a Yahoo purchase)
  • Kudos Motorsport 1250cc long nose injectors
  • Nistune ECU
  • Alignment and ride height adjustment
  • Royal Purple 10-60 XRP



R's Day this year was part of a Speedventures event, we just made up our own run group. Its always good to see as many GT-R on track as there were here.  Plus the venue had room for plenty of vendors, along with a car show area. I just heard about those last two things, as I was with the car most of the day. The way I like it.
