Jay Leno celebrates "Skyline Day" with the legendary @LarryChenPhoto and a lineup of seven generations of the Nissan Skyline. These right-hand drive icons were never officially intended for the U.S. market, making this gathering of "forbidden fruit" a rare event. From the original 1971 "Hakosuka" GT-R to Larry’s personal, fully restored 1999 Bayside Blue R34, Jay explores why these cars evolved from unloved pedestrian vehicles in Japan to $500,000 collector items in the United States. In this episode, Jay and Larry explore: The Origins: The 1971 Hakosuka GT-R and why its 160hp S20 engine was double the price of a standard Nissan Z. The Kenmeri: A rare 1973 interpretation with a 700hp R33 RB engine swap. The Iron Mask (DR30): A super-rare RS version making 340hp from a 2.0L four-cylinder turbo. The R31 GTS: Featuring Nissan’s quirky 1987 "retracting" active aero spoiler. The Modern Era: A deep dive into the R32, R33, and R34 generations, including why Nissan couldn't legally sell them in America due to the twin-turbo/steering box layout. Larry’s R34: A $100,000 restoration by a husband-and-wife team in Nara, Japan, that features custom-stamped shock towers to fix the model's inherent rust issues. Experience the "Godzilla" legacy and see why Jay believes these hand-drawn designs are timeless sculptures of automotive history.
