What kind of car is the Nissan Skyline 300GT?
We tested in 300GT form, which means the mid-range 3.0L variety. In Japan, this was the 11th generation Skyline and a very controversial one, thanks to a wild departure from previous Skylines in looks, technology and feel. Here are our impressions of that car.
What’s the price of the new Nissan Skyline?
The new car is available in four versions: 300 GT, 250 GT, 250 GT-Four, and 250 Gte, with the 250GTe being the least expensive model and the 300GT marking the top of the line.
What kind of engine does the Nissan 300GT have?
The 3.0L VQ30DD V6 engine fitted to the 300GT is of the same family as the 3.5L found in the Nissan 350Z. As such it is an alloy blocked, alloy headed, double overhead cam design with 4 valves per cylinder, variable valve timing and direct injection. It produces 191kW of power at 6400rpm and 324Nm of torque at 3600rpm.
What kind of transmission does the Nissan Skyline have?
All engines are either mated to a five-speed (300 GT) with manumatic function or a four-speed automatic transmission, but a manual transmission is planned to come with the US introduction of the G35. Similar to previous generations, the V35 Skyline is available with both rear- and all-wheel-drive.
