I think it was originally the personal street car of Signal Auto's owner, Kousuke Kida. There was a Super Street article way back from '99 or '00 where Kida-san took them out for a night of street racing. They said it was about 800 horsepower with the T88 they just installed. The author of the article said Kida-san would say "camera" and point out the windsheild asbthey were speeding down the expressway. He wqs pointing out the speed-enforcement cameras. It was later explained that above a certain speed, the cameras dont react fast enough to get a picture, which was something Kida-san delighted in.
I was stationed in Japan and met him and the car personally when he came to my friend's shop in Okinawa. They were great friends (my friend Tawata San and him).
I like the hook on the front, really shows the character of the car, knowing it’s been used, worn, filmed, edited out, and has so much attention the whole time. Feels like it needs more attention again
I saw it personally. The owner of Signal Auto (Kida San) and Tawata San of Blue Eye Body in Chatan, Okinawa were great friends. Tawata San used to do all the work on my Silvia S14.5 and in the early 2000's when Kida San was pushing his line of paints (Show Up), he brought the car to Okinawa. Tawata San called me down to the shop to me the owner of Signal as well as see the car. It was an incredible experience. The whole engine pay was chromed out. Kinda San told me in circuit trim it was 700 hp at the time with the sing turbo set up. The drag set up ( Zero Yon in Japanes car jargon...0 to 400 meters...quarter mile drag race), he claimed it made 1200hp. That sounds like nothing these days but back then that was insane. Definitely one of the car scene highlights of my life.
one of the most famous GTRs in the world, and I've only known about it just today because of this video, meanwhile Paul Walker's Skyline sitting in the corner laughing
Oh gosh. Am I getting old? How hyped he looked when he said that is is actually paint. No fu dude. Paint? Ok a car? In flipflop? Wow…never seen that. Except everywhere in mid 00s
Thanks to this R34 i Fall in love with R34 when i was Kid i was watching it on dbd drifting on tracks it was so awesome this R34 is for me most legendary R34 of all time
When i used to load the dyno at Forged Performance (before the infamous HKS R35 GTR incident was publicly dumped all over the internet) it came to us for tuning on January 10, 2013. I still have all the pictures. This thing had a sequential at the time, not sure if it still does. I wont lie, it was a bitch trying to get this car on the dyno for me. It is a sweet car to see in person.
"This might look like a wrap but its paint" Me, a child of the 90s: "you've never seen colour shifting paint before. Every car had that paint job in the late 90s"
Seen that car in magazines and in option videos. First time seeing it in person in fontana ca when signal auto was out there during a drift practice in early 2000.
Really bro? The Goat? Well if you absolutely love crazy R34s that much I'll do you a solid and direct you to Larry Chens recent feature he did whilst in Sydney Australia recently. If you honestly think this is the Goat, trust me dude your going to literally faint when you see the actual GOAT of R34s world wide "KNGR34" u can thank me later 😉
@joshbrookes6439 much appreciated. I love so many cars. But the rarest special one to me is the R34 because of the potential and it just looks so beefy aggressive. Amg. Skyline, m3 m5 , sti .
Imgaine buying this if it is ever up for sale. It is basically buying history and living in it as you drive it around. You can do a lot of things with a car this built and well put together even if there is flaws from all that Motorsports it experienced
The dumbest thing these racers do to mutilate these cars is the rwd swap to drift, taking out the ATTESA. It's basically the soul of the GTR and makes it what it is. Way ahead of it's time, the Germans are just now replicating it, BMW putting it in their M cars. Couple that with no HICAS, it's basically a Silvia.
That Skyline has a lot of stories to be told

This wasn't Kidas car, this was a second GTR solely built for competition Kidas car ended up in trinidad.
I saw this car in New York it was beautiful
The high octane highway clip will always be in my memories
what jdm kids think a stock r34 looks like:
fr💀
Pretty sure youre a kid
The fact that it's painted is just crazy
Mad respect for the painter
Reminds me of Mystichrome
I personally hate the r-34 but I mean this one looks cool ig. It has a great back story, I definitely like that.
same here i really hate the r34 its too trendy for me but his one...😮
Underated opinion here, i like it👍👍
Why do you hate it lol
Damn it's clean 🧼
That’s not the definition of clean
the opposite of clean
bro's hair changed completely from the start to to end of the video 💀

I went to a museum and saw the exact same car. I love it.❤
The kill switch on the outside is halarious😂
Trust me, it's a "must to do" for race cars, in case there's a crash and the driver were Unconscious, people outside can turn off the car👍
Said by a man that's never raced on a track
It’s not really funny. It’s a must have for race cars
Bro turned into eminem singing rap god in the intro
That car has seen almost every stage of life and finally gets to rest in a garage. Very nice
At full boost it goes boom.
Skyline my favorite dream car
I had this car printed and hang it on my room back in '06
I remember it raced titan racing supra on the street, great race regardless of winner. Nasty sounds
My dad had one of these years ago but couldn’t afford to keep it 😢

Some jdm fans would literally just bust on everything if they saw this irl 😂
It is a iconic piece of the community
If cars could tell stories I'd gladly listen to this one.
signal auto was the best drifter x has the sickest 180sx too in orange
Thanks to this R34 i Fall in love with R34 when i was Kid i was watching it on dbd drifting on tracks it was so awesome this R34 is for me most legendary R34 of all time
My favorite skyline build
I love the skylines so much
As a non American you're all in your infancy with skylines. This doesn't come close to the most insane, most important, best built one
Is that purple one from Tokyo drift when Shawn enter garage ? I was always curious about it
I believe it is!
paul walkers gtr is really famous too. I have seen the original one from the movie in Munich
This piece of history has a long story to tell the world

Signal Auto!!! Great memories seeing their beautiful cars on Super Street Magazine.
That nsx to the left caught my eye more
No ones gonna say anything about him saying "its been rear wheel drive swapped" 😂😂😂 bruh
Im so happy SIGNAL is getting it’s recognition
what if someone push that kill switch while you are not watching?
That car is the 🐐. Hands down. I see it in My dreams sometimes.

Try drifting competitively with awd then talk
I already knew it's the R34
That is so legendary. Where was it in fast and furious tho. I cant remember
I guess the 4th movie. But it wasn’t a GTR
tokyo drift, background car
Tokyo drift one of the scene at the meet it shows the motor
It is the nicest skyline ever but it would be very expensive now 😢
Seen that exact r34 up in Connecticut
8 seconds on a street radial back in early 2000’s is bonkers
I remember reading jdm car magazine by the casher while waiting for my mom doing groceries and in every magazine you will see this car
A car with many respectable owners 👌
Paint over stickers all day everyday!
I like that NSX next to it
that thing is dangerously close to the wall there..
If anyone is wondering the color it is nippon paints maziora
When u get that GTR in cpm: CAR EXTANGES EVERYWHERE😂
Sadly we now live in a day and age where they've become ridiculously expensive forcing most owners to leave theirs stock
Many stories to tell in that car
THE LEDGEND LIVES ON! ❤
This car at formula d Atlanta was the best
This car is a CLASSIC
Might have to make that in NFS..
Imagine if a biker friend were to decide to pull the equivalent of shutting off your friends bike with the GTR’s killswitch at a stop light 😂
That one car you just keep modding in the game
Ever since I saw a skyline I fell in loved with it my dream is to get the Nissan skyline r35
not the hand on the painttttt
GTRRRRRRRRRR❤ please do more JDM content dude….
Cool skyline😮
This car is the definition of Japanese motor sports and aftermarket modifications.

Which Fast and furious was it in though?
My god the wrap is gorgeous
are you serious right neow
I love you too
It is indeed 100% a wrap and not anything else
@@TheDuckyDeeit’s painted, in Maziora color by Nippon Paint. The iconic color shift.

What I want to see most is the NSX beside it, in my garage!

The Signal Auto R34 needs no introduction.
Makes 600hp with the motor off. Damn
That wrap tho 🤤
Not actually a wrap, it’s a paint job
he said it aint a wrap goofy
in japan most do paint because a big sticker is to easy
Looks like the spot in CT that has some top secret cars of Smokey
It is!
