Description
The Nismo 270R represents one of the rarest and most sought after special editions ever built on the Nissan Silvia S14 platform, produced in 1994 to celebrate NISMO’s 10th anniversary. With production estimates ranging from just 30 to 50 examples depending on the source, the 270R occupies an entirely different collector tier from ordinary S14 variants, and every single unit built left the factory finished in black with distinctive “Nismo 270R” badging positioned above the rear wheels.
Powered by a turbocharged 2.0 litre SR20DET inline four, the 270R boosted output to its namesake 270 horsepower, a genuine increase over the standard S14’s 217 horsepower, paired with a heavy duty clutch, a Nismo 2-way limited slip differential, and comprehensive suspension and brake upgrades. Visually, the car stood apart with a vented bonnet housing a front mounted intercooler, the aggressive Nismo “Edge” aero body kit, and a stripped down, motorsport focused cabin featuring a lightweight steering wheel, a 300 km/h speedometer, and bespoke Nismo trimmed seats. When examples of this genuinely obscure JDM special do surface on the collector market today, they routinely command well over 100,000 dollars, reflecting the 270R’s status as one of Nissan’s most coveted factory tuned rarities.
Hot Wheels celebrates this ultra rare NISMO special as part of its Modern Classics range within the Car Culture series, an imported line known for its detailed, adult collector focused castings of celebrated Japanese classics. This casting features a gloss black finish, authentic NISMO side graphics, a rear wing, and tampo-printed headlights and badges, built with a complete Metal/Metal body and chassis for a heavy, realistic feel, and finished with genuine Real Riders rubber tires on 5-spoke JDM style wheels, capturing the 270R’s aggressive proportions at 1:64 scale.
