The 1997 Nissan R390 GT1 LM Calsonic Xanavi #23 is a mid-engined race car built for the 24 Hours of Le Mans GT1 Class. Nissan produced two road legal versions of the R390 in order to meet homologation prescriptions.
The R390 is powered by a 3.5L Twin-Turbo V8. Out of the three R390s that participated in the 1997 24 Hours of Le Mans, only the #23 car finished the race.
Four R390 GT1s participated in Le Mans the following year. They were slightly upgraded from the R390 to generate more downforce by extending the tail bodywork, and all four R390 GT1s were able to finish the race (3rd, 5th, 6th, and 10th).
