In this thrilling Hagerty episode, we witness the creation of two jaw-dropping R34 GTRs, each worth a whopping $700,000. A dynamic duo of JDM enthusiasts commissions these beauties, one in classic white and the other in the iconic Bayside blue. The team takes us on a journey through the meticulous restoration process, from chassis reinforcement to the intricate paintwork that brings these legends to life. Garage Yoshida's expertise shines through as they transform base model R34s into automotive works of art.
As we delve deeper into the details, the team showcases the painstaking effort put into every aspect of these builds. From the recreation of the mine stripe to the custom dry carbon components inspired by racing heritage, no stone is left unturned in the pursuit of perfection. The video captures the essence of Japanese automotive craftsmanship at its finest, with a nod to the legendary Mines brand that has captured the hearts of JDM fanatics worldwide.
The performance aspect is not overlooked, with a focus on drivability and response rather than sheer power. The N1 RB block with a 2.8L HKS stroker kit delivers a conservative 650 horsepower, complemented by top-notch components like AP Racing brakes and custom Rays forged wheels. The interior is a testament to Mines' attention to detail, with custom touches enhancing both aesthetics and comfort. The collaborative design process between Mines and BBL results in a harmonious fusion of style and performance, culminating in a sunset shot against the majestic backdrop of Mount Fuji that is nothing short of automotive poetry in motion.
