Sit back and watch Nismo restore a Nissan Skyline GT-R R32… down to the last screw

Posted on

In the legendary Nismo factory in Omori (Japan), the motorsport specialists of the Japanese brand carry out a very special restoration process. Nismo’s most experienced technicians are responsible for return to its original state to some of Nissan’s most special cars, including the Skyline GT-R R32. A restoration process that we are shown on video, created with an attention to detail that we can only define as absolutely sick. And absolutely fascinating.

First of all, turn the sound off the video. The music is not worth it, and it turns the video into a crude promotional tool, and not a relaxing and slow video. Have you removed it? Good, we can continue. The restoration process of these GT-R R32 is exhaustive, to the point that all its technical components are rebuilt or replaced by new invoice components. The car body itself is repainted again, after passing through a galvanizing bath. Yes, just like when the car was built.

Thanks to Nissan having returned to producing parts from one of its most beloved classics – much of the blame lies with the legendary status of its sequential twin-turbo RB26DETT engine – the car’s interior and mechanics look just as good or better than when the car was released. It was new. Every car that passes by restoration of almost 380,000 euros It is subjected to a dyno test, and a circuit driving test. It is a very high price, but it is the price to pay for brand new a car that was discontinued in 1993.
