Its definitely surprising the Z-tune was not in the game considering how many Skyline GTRs there are in it. Its not even available as a standard car...

I saw this thread and tried to replicate the amazing Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34) Z-tune in GT5.

Following the information in the Nismo's web ( http://www.nismo.co.jp/Z-tune/contents_e.html ), i made the same (or closest) modifications that the real car has. My "replica" has the same power, but a little more torque than the real car. It's painted with the same color, Chrome Silver Metallic (KY0), and the rims are the closer ones.

I hope that you like it.
 
Meh, at the end it's just a front heavy, understeer prone skyline, you can always build your own Z-tune with a premium R34 in the dealership.

I made the exact same thing, except before this thread started. It's about as close as you will get to a Z tune
 
Ok so they only made 20 Z tunes... pretty exclusive but it was fairly recent & i bet all 20 can be located pretty easy.
If you want exclusive seriously the 400R is the 1 to get. They made 44 of them up to 1998. 13 yrs ago. It is without doubt THE most sought after Skyline. Ask anyone who knows a thing or 2 & they will say the same thing. And before i get flamed for dissing the z tune.....yes i did drive a skyline for 5 yrs & was an area rep for the owners club so was quite heavily involved in the skyline scene for a good few yrs.

1 for sale a couple of yrs ago http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/modules/stock/index.php?StockID=4840

You only really need to read the last few lines in the 1st paragraph describing the car.
 
I just got the Nismo GT-R-R-TUNE (R34) 99 from the UCD. Don't really like it. Anybody want to swap or is it quite a common car?

Once again, this thread is not about adding Skylines, its about why they have 20 odd models but not the Z tune. Read the original post

And what makes the Z-tune so special? Seem like just another odd model of the skyline pd happen not to have added...

In fact only 19 were made and I think that only 17 went on sale, so there are less than half Z-tunes than there are 400R´s and even if they could be easily located I don´t think the owners would just sell them , anyway I think that getting either will be a pain in the behind , besides the point here is why there are lots of normal skylines and the Z-tune isn´t in the game , not about which is the best between the Z and the 400R.
 
Ha, another comment from someone who doesn't know what they're talking about. Honsetly if you don't understand, its ok. Just post in another thread

Yes your right - another PD worker spending 6 months to make a premium Skyline Z tune when he could be doing a...

for example...

you can tune a Skyline to have very similar specs to the Z tune - specs and visual but you cannot do anything close to the one on the pic - I think its you that doesnt understand it and why do we post in the thread that we miss the point about? so that other might also miss it and find a better angle...

Dude, the thread is not about wanting them to go and model the Z tune now, but why they spent so long modelling so many similar models and not the best of them all. So we're on the same page here.

I would rather they spent half as long modelling the Z tune and maybe 2 or 3 others instead of 20. Then we could have other cars as well, like the car above (saw it at Goodwood Festival of Speed last year and it is amazing).

I would also like this 👍

And alas i didn't have a gtst when gt2 was out.
Think i had an escort rs turbo then if memory serves. Why is there no rs turbo lol.

Dont have a GTSt now either. I sold it a couple of yrs ago but i had it when GT4 was out & it wasn't in that & thought it might have been included in GT5 but noo the nearest in the R32 but thats only a 2.0 :(


And what is the good reason for there being no gtst chippy? Better be a good 1.

Well you have demonstrated your knowledge of skylines, you say the R32 Gts-t is only 2.0l , what do you think your R33 was? 5.0 v8? Unless you mean the R33 Gts-25t, im inclined to think you didn't own the said car :guilty:

Why no added chip availiable ? That would be the M-Spec part of the gts-t, but i guess you knew that one already my fellow gts-t owner :)
 
Um, actually he's right. The R33 was a 2.5 litre. Maybe you should go look under your bonnet :)

:drool: That one I dont know who tune it (Lotus itself?) or what are its specs but it looks really nice :drool:

And its the Hennessy Venom GT. It's based on the Lotus Elise but they chopped it up, lengthened it and stuffed a twin turbo v8 inside. Hennessy are offering it as a complete bespoke model.

Specs and videos can be found here:

Thank you CarreraGT :)

Yes i did own it. In fact i was an area rep for the owners club over here in the uk for a while & have lifetime membership for services to the club but damn i didn't know i had to be so anal & quote the model letter for bloody letter. Jees ok it was an R33 GTS25t M Spec

Just in case you still doubt...
