The private seller offers for sale this 1998 Nissan Skyline 25GT Turbo, powered by a 2.5-litre turbocharged straight-six engine, paired with an automatic transmission. Finished in white and dressed in Altia aero styling with a rear wing, this right-hand drive coupé has covered 107451 km and comes with its booklets, documentation and maintenance invoices. It has recently undergone a major service with a new timing belt, auxiliary belts, water pump, thermostat, fuel filter and oil filter, all genuine Nissan OEM parts, while all oils, coolant and brake fluid have been renewed together with a complete new set of brake lines.
The chassis has been upgraded with a new TEIN coilover set, new JR Wheels with new wheel bolts and centring rings, and four new Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tyres. Braking is handled by new EBC Racing discs and pads, and the original front discs and pads, which have seen very little use, are supplied with the car. A new sports exhaust system including a new downpipe has been fitted, and apart from the exhaust, a dump valve and an Apexi open air filter, the engine is original. New LED tail lights have recently been fitted, with the original rear lights included in the sale. The bodywork has received a professional polish and, as can be expected at this age, shows a few small areas that need attention. Inside, the grey cloth interior is in good condition; the radio only needs to be reconnected.
The R34 generation of the Nissan Skyline arrived in 1998 and is widely regarded as the high point of the Skyline story, a model elevated to cult status by motorsport, tuning culture, video games and film. While the GT-R took the headlines, the 25GT Turbo was the heart of the range. It shares the R34’s taut, purposeful styling, its stiffened body shell and its iconic round tail lights, but uses a rear-wheel drive layout that many enthusiasts consider the purest expression of the Skyline’s character.
Power comes from the RB25DET NEO, a 2.5-litre straight-six with a single turbocharger and variable valve timing. Smooth, eager and renowned for its tuning potential, the RB engine is a cornerstone of the Skyline legend. With its thoughtful upgrades, recent maintenance and comprehensive paperwork, this 25GT Turbo offers an attractive way into R34 ownership, a model whose collector appeal continues to grow as it reaches classic age.
