About the Nissan Skyline GT-R #22 M. Krumm / S. Motoyama Xanavi Nismo JGTC 2002 AUTOart 1:18

TL;DR: AUTOart's 1:18 diecast Nissan Skyline GT-R reproduces the #22 Xanavi Nismo entry from the 2002 JGTC season, driven by M. Krumm and S. Motoyama. Full sponsor livery and widened GT-class bodywork mark this as a factory-backed Japanese touring car racer rather than a road-going GT-R.

JGTC racing built its own culture around the Skyline GT-R's factory teams, and the Xanavi Nismo entries were among the most visible cars on the grid through the early 2000s.

AUTOart's Diecast Approach to a JGTC Livery

JGTC-class Skylines carried far wider bodywork than a standard road GT-R, with flared fenders, deep front air dams, and large rear wings needed to manage the aerodynamic demands of the series, and AUTOart's diecast reproduces that widened silhouette rather than the road car's narrower stance. The Xanavi Nismo livery carries heavy sponsor graphics across the hood, doors, and rear quarters, all tampo-printed for sharp edges that a decal would struggle to match at this scale. Getting the #22 number and driver names legible at 1:18 depends on printing precision more than paint quality, and AUTOart's typical mid-to-upper diecast tier generally holds that detail well. The car's low front splitter and rear diffuser are worth checking closely, since JGTC aerodynamics were a defining part of the category's engineering.

The Xanavi Nismo Team and JGTC Racing

The Japan GT Championship, known as JGTC before its later rebrand, was Japan's premier GT racing series through the 1990s and 2000s, built around factory-backed teams running heavily modified versions of production-based cars. Xanavi, a navigation technology sponsor, backed a Nismo-run Skyline GT-R team that competed at the top level of the series, and pairings like Krumm and Motoyama gave the entry a specific, documented driver lineup for the 2002 season. For collectors of Japanese GT racing, factory team liveries like this one carry real historical specificity that a generic race-liveried stand-in would lack.

Collecting JGTC-Era Skyline Liveries

This model sits well alongside other JGTC-era GT cars, where the widened Skyline bodywork stands out against narrower European GT3 competitors from the same period. Keep the model out of prolonged direct light to protect the printed sponsor graphics, which fade before the underlying base paint typically does. For a Japanese motorsport or Skyline-focused display, a specific, driver-attributed livery like the Xanavi Nismo #22 adds documented racing history rather than a generic paint scheme.
