Sega Saturn - Nissan Presents Over Drivin' GT-R Premium Pack
Title: Nissan Presents Over Drivin' GT-R Premium Pack / オーバードライビンGT-R
Developer: Pioneer Productions / Electronic Arts Canada
Publisher: Electronic Arts Victor
Release date: 20 December 1996
Catalogue No.: T-10615G
Genre: Racing
The Japanese localized Sega Saturn version of "Road & Track Presents the Need for Speed". This is basically The Need for Speed with all the cars changed to Nissan cars.
The shit thing is that you can't cause massive pile-ups or flip the car like you can in The Need for Speed. This makes Nissan Over Drivin' GT-R quite dull. One of the most fun aspects of Need for Speed on the Saturn was to see your car go hurling through the sky and then smash into the oncoming vehicles. Sadly all that's gone in the Japanese game thanks to the restrictions set by the licensing department within Nissan. If I was you then I'd pass on this Japanese version and get the western Need for Speed game. To the Japanese Nissan version's defense, I will say that it does have some pretty nice FMV. It's a shame the same can't be said about the car models used within the game.
The cars featured in this Nissan version are:
1969 Skyline GT-R PGC10
1973 Skyline GT-R KPGC110
1970 Fairlady Z 240ZG
1995 Skyline GT-R BCNR33
1989 Skyline GT-R BNR32
1989 Fairlady Z 300ZX
1996 180SX Type X S13
1996 Silvia K's S14
So yeah, very awesome Nissan cars for someone like me who is a Nissan fan, especially in terms of the Skyline, GT-R, and Fairlady (Nissan Z) models. This Premium Pack release also includes a free keyring.

GT-R GODZIILA
Based on the Nissan Skyline range, Nissan manufactures the GTR (Japanese GT-R, Hepburn: Nissan Sukairain GT-R) as a sports automobile in Japan. Nissan produced the first cars dubbed “Skyline GT-R” under the model number KPGC10 between 1969 and 1972, achieving success in Japanese touring car races. In 1973, a brief production run of second-generation automobiles bearing the model code KPGC110 succeeded this one. read more............

20th century
NISSAN MOTORSPORTS
1958-2000
70~
Taking on the challenge of overseas rallies.
On a safari
Active in Monte Carlo
The domestic racing world of the 170s was compared to the excitement of the 1960s.
The market has become somewhat sluggish. This was further exacerbated by the oil crisis caused by exhaust gas pollution, and the world fell into a mood of refraining from racing activities.
The 1970s began with a strategic plan, but it started in the Middle East at the end of 1973.
Participation in overseas rallies was emphasized as a works activity. 510 Bluebird SSS won the overall victory in the 8th year of the safari challenge. The Fairlady 240Z won the safari in the first year of the World Championship, and has consistently maintained top results ever since, moving on to the Bluebird 160J and 710/PA10 Violet.
In Japan, the Fuji GC system, which is dominated by private teams,
Races such as Leeds and Suzuka F2 Championship started.
After many twists and turns, they gradually become established.
Works drivers belonging to the manufacturer also
He was transferred to an event team and competed in big races.
Furthermore, GC and F2 races using pure racing cars are also available.
Although it was an undercard race for the race, the race for modified touring cars also gained popularity. Skyline GT-R (later Fairlady Z) competes with Mazda rotary cars
The "Super Touring" that I made, and the Sunny (in the early days Cherry too)/Toyota Starlet (initial Corolla)
Every race is amazing with Honda, Civic, etc.
``Minor Touring'' was a fierce battle. The Sunny 1200 Coupe (KB110), which became the main character of the latter, was originally a popular car, but with the birth of normal car (unmodified touring car) racing in Japan, it became popular with everyone at circuits throughout Japan. Loved. It is no exaggeration to say that without the KB110, the foundation for domestic racing could not have been built.
World racer at Fuji Speedway from 1970 to 1977
The F1GP match was held, and there was also a sense of excitement among the children.
``Car boom'' began, and cars gradually became popular.
Brightness has returned to the environment surrounding the world.
PIC CAPTIONS
A Datsun 240Z races through the snowy Monte Carlo Rally. Announced in the fall of 1969
The Fairlady Z appeared in various competitions as soon as the 1970s began. It is active not only in circuit races but also in international rallies. At the 1971 Monte Carlo Rally, it placed 5th overall despite being the first to race, and the following year, in 1972, this car of Aaltonen/Todt took 3rd place overall.
_____________________________________________
The 510 Bluebird SSS (Hermann/Schuller) achieved an impressive victory in the 17th year of the Safari Rally, which is run over the rough roads of vast East Africa. Despite the poor conditions of rain on the first day of the competition, which turned into a quagmire, Bluebird finished in 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 7th place overall, achieving complete domination with overall victory, class victory, and team victory.
_____________________________________________
The Skyline GT-R, which debuted at the JAF-GP in the spring of 1969, went on to win consecutive races, and in 1971, when the hardtop version (KPGC10) was introduced, its strength increased, giving no chance to the new Mazda Rotary team. Then, in March 1972, at Fuji in heavy rain, this No. 15, driven by Kunimitsu Takahashi, lapped the 2nd place and below and won an easy victory, giving the GT-R its 50th victory in total. This was an amazing record at the time.
_____________________________________________
In the late 1970s, the hottest race in Japan was the "Minor Touring" race held as the undercard of the Fuji GC Series. 1.3'' engine cars tuned to the limit, Sunny, Starlet, and Civic all competed together. KB110 Sunny is a masterpiece car that will remain in Japanese racing history.

The Nissan Skyline GT-R (Japanese: 日産・スカイラインGT-R, Hepburn: Nissan Sukairain GT-R) is a Japanese sports car based on the Nissan Skyline range. The first cars named "Skyline GT-R" were produced between 1969 and 1972 under the model code KPGC10, and were successful in Japanese touring car racing events. This model was followed by a brief production run of second-generation cars, under model code KPGC110, in 1973.
After a 16-year hiatus, the GT-R name was revived in 1989 as the BNR32 ("R32") Skyline GT-R. Group A specification versions of the R32 GT-R were used to win the Japanese Touring Car Championship for four years in a row. The R32 GT-R also had success in

Nissan Gtr
Introduction of a massive machine.
Nissan Gtr is one of the most popular production cars manufactured by Nissan. Between 1969 and 1974 and again between 1989 and 2002, Nissan introduced a high performance coupe version which created a massive impact on both roads and motorsport called skyline GTR. The GTR C10 was the first gtr to wear that legendary badge which opened the gate for a tremendous era in motorsport. The car was just brutally powerful and insanely attractive at that era ie. 1969 to 1974. Several car manufacturing companies faced tight competition at that time due to this C10. Manufacturers felt ultimate pressure in beating the GTR C10 especially in the design and 2 liter 160 bhp engine which was a brutal engine configuration at that time. Around 3,10,447 units of C10 were produced at that time. That was the birth of the supercar killer or Godzilla.
The most precious and important feature of the Gtr C10 was its engine unit which is 2.0 liter, DOHC, triple Mikuni-Solex Side-Draught, inline 6. During 1973, car manufacturers faced an oil crisis, that was the introduction of the second generation GTR which is GTR C110.
The Nissan GTR C110: A Look Back at the "Kenmeri" GT-R
The Nissan GT-R C110, commonly known as the "Kenmeri" GT-R, represents a noteworthy chapter in Nissan's GT-R series. Produced from 1971 to 1972, it followed the legendary C10 Skyline GT-R, marking the second generation of this esteemed lineup.
Design and Styling
The C110 GT-R was named after the "Kenmeri" family, featured in Nissan's marketing campaign for the car. This model had a more refined and slightly larger design compared to its predecessor, the C10. It boasted a more modern and aerodynamic shape, reflecting the styling trends of its time.
Engine and Performance
Under the hood, the C110 GT-R was equipped with the same 2.0-liter inline-six engine (S20) found in the C10. The S20 engine, derived from the Prince R8C used in the Prince R8 sports car, delivered robust performance, generating around 160 horsepower. This was a notable figure for its era, ensuring the GT-R's reputation for speed and agility.
Performance Features
The C110 GT-R was designed with performance in mind. It came with a sportier suspension and a manual transmission, enhancing its driving dynamics. These features contributed to its high-performance credentials and continued the GT-R tradition of exceptional handling and speed.
Limited Production
The production of the C110 GT-R was quite limited, with only about 197 units made. This rarity, combined with the model's brief production period, has made it a coveted collector's item today.
Legacy and Impact
Produced during a transitional phase for Nissan, the C110 GT-R was a successful model that contributed to the GT-R legacy. Although it was eventually succeeded by the more renowned R32 GT-R in the late 1980s, the C110's role in establishing the GT-R’s performance credentials is still recognized. It remains a classic vehicle cherished by enthusiasts and collectors for its historical significance and contribution to the GT-R lineage.
Nissan GT-R R32 and R33:
The Nissan GT-R R32 and R33 are important milestones in the history of Nissan’s high-performance cars. Each model brought unique features and improvements to the GT-R lineup. Here’s an overview of what made them stand out:

The vehicle’s sharp contours, broad stance, and distinctive front grille create a commanding road presence. Its aerodynamic design includes practical features like a rear diffuser and front splitter, which contribute to better stability at high speeds and efficient cooling.
Powertrain and Performance

Die-cast: Autoart 1973 Nissan Skyline GT-R
Skyline 2000 GT-R (KPGC110) a rare, racy hatchback … Just as the oil crisis was putting the kibosh on performance cars in the U.S. in 1973 it also was squishing a newly revised Nissan offering in Japan. The cool Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R, the second generation GT-R, was a performance oriented fastback that for all its styling looked like a surefire winner in both Japan and the U.S. market where…

soooo whipple, can you tell me more about what kinda cars the bleach characters would do cool poses with 👀👀
Friend, you are too kind. 🥺🥺🥺I've only thought about this with respect to my snow children so I'll just do them. I was initially thinking about this with respect to the, uhhhhhh, extremely necessary Fast and Furious AU where everyone's swords are instead cars:
KUCHIKI RUKIA // SODE NO SHIRAYUKI
1967 Toyota 2000GT
RWD | 2.0L inline 6 | 148HP | 137mph top speed
My first thought was a Toyota 86, because you don't necessarily drive it for raw power but it’s a fun, light, devilish little car. (I also assumed that Rukia would install a turbo and front-mounted intercooler on her 86, because why wouldn't she).
But ultimately, I wanted something a little more old-school, to also capture Rukia's old-school nature. So I landed on the Toyota 2000GT, the 86's ancestor. (In the course of seeking this car out, I learned that it's also the car driven by the Bond Girl in You Only Live Twice, so it also has that going for it.)
The resolution of these pics is very bad (the originals--it's not even Tumblr's fault, I just don't know how to use my phone, LOL), but the wheel spokes are meant to be in the pattern of her family crest. There's also a little rabbit stuffie hanging from the rearview mirror, because they are her favorite. <3 I also wanted to incorporate the Sode no Shirayuki's ribbons, and the fenders also reference Rukia's bankai form.
HITSUGAYA TOUSHIROU // HYOURINMARU
1973 Nissan Skyline GT-R
RWD | 2.0L inline 6 | 158HP | 121mph top speed
Since I'd already gone old-school for Rukia I decided to stay in that lane, and ended up choosing the Kenmeri Nissan Skyline for Hitsugaya. This car stands out to me because it has big American ponycar energy in ways I was not expecting from a Japanese car, and ponycar energy feels Hitsugaya-appropriate. Hyourinmaru can also fly, and his powers are atmospheric, so "Skyline" felt doubly appropriate. This one was also marketed with this odd commercial about a couple named Ken and Meri (hence "Kenmeri") and they drive around in the ~snow~ so even more bonus points there, haha.
Hitsugaya modded car!Hyourinmaru with an ice bodykit that includes fender flares that reference Hyourinmaru's dragon body and wheels based on the countdown flowers from his bankai. These additions feel a little OTT for a classic vs. like, the 90s/00s Fast and Furious decals-everywhere aesthetic, but I still think about this tastefully updated Charger from NAIAS 2019, so I’ll allow it.
Both the 2000GT and GT-R have limited-slip differentials, which I just think are neat but which also allow you to put down max power without breaking traction so you can corner like a tiny god.
Thank you for indulging me! <3
#I will say drawing these really hammered home for me how tiiiiiiny some Bleach characters are#when I was trying to figure out how tall the characters should be in relation to the cars I found that Hitsugaya is shorter than this car#it is not a tall car#Why does he still appear taller than this car if I spared a moment to look this up? Uhhhh...perspective?#kuchiki rukia#sode no shirayuki#hitsugaya toushirou#hyourinmaru#the bleach x fast and furious fusion we all need#trust me you need it you just don't know it#it's a bleach blog it's a cars blog it's sunflower mayuri#bleach#bleach anime#bleach manga#bleach AU

Candle meme: Banana Nut Bread, Chocolate Layer Cake, Mystic Moon?
Yankee Candle Asks
Banana Nut Bread: Describe something you find comforting
The smell of bonfires.
Chocolate Layer Cake: What is something you really want that is completely superficial? Why?
At some point in my life, I really would really love a cool car. (Not that a Subaru Outback with a bunch of travel bumper stickers isn't a certain kind of cool, I guess...)
And not some basic shit like a new Mustang, either. Like, a "cool to car people" cool car. (Or a new Challenger, which is still a Dodge but at least looks better than most of the other new American sports cars and gives you a lot of bang for your buck. Also, the supercharged ones are called Hellcats and I am a cat person...)
The dream would be a 1973 Nissan Skyline GTR, Ken and Mary edition, in cherry red. But since those are like, half-million dollar cars (that you then most likely have to ship to America, since they didn't sell them here), a more realistic dream would be a late 70s/early 80s Fairlady. Or an old Xterra, which is still pretty cool and much more practical. The new Z model that just came out looks very cool, too. (Can you tell I like Nissan??)
But...realistically, I am never, ever giving up that all wheel drive, and I love Subarus too much to quit them. So if I ever do actually get a cool car, it'll probably be a Subaru BRZ.
(Surprise!! I'm sort of a car person! Sorry lmao)
Mystic Moon: Favorite constellation?
This is a tough one! I would have to say Orion, since it's the first one I learned.
Thanks for the ask!
#independence1776#about me#ask meme#again sorry for coming out as a car person totally unprovoked lmao
