The 1969 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R (PGC10) is a four-door sedan manufactured by Nissan.

Produced as a high performance model for touring car races, the GT-R is based on the C10 Skyline saloon, and fitted with the S20 I6 4-valve DOHC engine, developed from the R380 prototype race car's engine, but updated to suit a production model.

It made its race debut and won at "JAF GP" in May 1969, 3 months after the rollout. Since then, it kept winning until it attained 52 victories before the Nissan works team withdrew in October 1972.[2]

The GT-R was later offered as two-door hardtop denominated KPGC10 from the autumn of 1970.
