[1] Its FR layout and simple construction created a steady following converting Crews into drifting and tuning cars.

The Crew used a body pan derived from the Y31 Nissan Cedric, although the front end was mostly borrowed from the C32 Laurel.

[2] The Crew Saloon, aimed at private buyers (but still available with a power rear door) was built between January 1994 and June 2002.

Introduced in January 1994, the Crew Saloon was aimed at private buyers rather than institutional and commercial use.

The initial Crew lineup of July 1993 consisted of Taxi and Driver Training cars [ja] with the LPG-powered, four-cylinder, 2-liter NA20P engine or the six-cylinder, diesel RD28 with 94 PS (69 kW).

[5] In August 1999, the diesel engine was upgraded to the 18-valve, electronically controlled RD28E unit with 100 PS (74 kW) but it was no longer offered on the GLX model.

In June 2002, the gasoline and diesel options were discontinued, leaving only the LPG-powered NA20P and marking the end of the patrol car as well as the Crew Saloon.
