Although this model was the sixth-generation to bear the GT-R name, it is no longer part of the Skyline line-up.

Production is conducted in a shared production line at Nissan's Tochigi plant in Japan.The R34 Skyline GT-R was introduced in 1998, and was available from 1998 to 2002. A technologically advanced display unit set the model apart, while it's RB26DETT twin-turbo I6 engine produced impressive horsepower.You have the 2.7 liter rb 26 dett.

Why was Skyline GTR banned
The model was illegal because it did not pass the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards set under the Imported Vehicle Safety Compliance Act of 1988. This left many Nissan fans of the model very sad for years.
Why is the R35 not Skyline : The previous Skyline GT-Rs used the same platform, chassis, etc as the regular Nissan Skyline coupé (the later versions of which are sold in the US as the Infiniti G35/G37). The current GT-R uses a unique platform not related to the Skyline/G35/G37, as well as unique bodywork, hence it's lost the Skyline name.
The R34 Skyline GT-R (1999-2002) offered numerous improvements including a new close-ratio Getrag six-speed manual gearbox, 18-inch wheels, and its slightly shorter (yet broader) body and bolder styling addresses criticism that the R33 model was too bulky. The Nissan GTR is undeniably powerful, but it falls short of the excellent fuel economy of the GR Supra. The 2021 GTR only earns an EPA-estimated 16 city/22 highway MPG. Even the available engine of the GR Supra is able to top the Nissan GTR; it earns an EPA-estimated 22 city/30 highway MPG.

Then taking a look over at the fastest 0 to 60 times achieved.The GT-R T-spec returns for the 2024 model year and builds upon the already capable Premium with many visual and mechanical enhancements, including GT-R NISMO carbon-ceramic brakes, a gold-painted version of the NISMO's RAYS® 20-inch forged wheels, NISMO-tuned Vehicle Dynamic Control and wider front fenders.But this car itself is going to be out in 2028. So still a little bit of time away. But it is fascinating because even this concept car has a few elements to it that will make it into production. Fortunately, the car is about to be made legal because it made it through the "25-year rule." Under this rule, the model can be imported to the U.S. for more than just a basic display. There's a crucial catch to this legality, though.
Why is the R34 illegal : The Nissan GT-R34 cannot meet the NHTSA Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards in the US therefore they are illegal. Another reason is the speed of this sports car. Being an all-wheel drive with an insane motor, police cars cannot keep up with the Nissan GT R34.

Originally Answered: Why is the Nissan GT-R R34 illegal in the US Under the vehicle importation guidelines, all motor vehicles less than 25 years old must comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards in order to be eligible for use in the United States. The Nissan Skyline R34 does not meet these standards. There are a few notably rare Nissan Skylines; the Z-tune, R400 and of course Brian O'Conner's electric blue R34 from 2 Fast 2 Furious. But there's only one truly rare-as-unicorn-plop Godzilla: the awesome R33 LM.The R32 and R33 Skylines have been US-legal for a while now, but the door only began to creak open to the R34-generation cars in 2023. Last year, the lesser-spec ER34, ENR34, and HR34 Skyline models started to become of age, as the earliest examples of those left the factory in 1998.
Is GT-R faster than Bugatti : The built GT-R absolutely destroyed the Chiron right off the starting line. It wasn't even close and it made the French supercar look so slow despite completing the sprint even quicker than before at 10.02 seconds. In fact, the tuned GT-R clocked in 8.94 seconds for the quarter-mile.
