[1] As with other silhouette cars, the Skyline RS Silhouette Formula shares design elements with the road-going R30 Skyline RS, but its engineering differs radically.

Designed for Group 5 regulations,[1] it combines a space frame built by Nova Engineering with Mooncraft bodywork and a turbocharged Nissan LZ20BT inline-four engine capable of approximately 570 PS (560 hp; 420 kW)[2] and 55 kg⋅m (540 N⋅m; 400 lb⋅ft).

In 1983, the car received a minor styling update to go with the facelifted R30 Skyline.

Racing in the Fuji Super Silhouette Series, the Skyline RS Silhouette Formula scored 2 wins in 1982 and 5 wins in 1983 with Masahiro Hasemi behind the wheel.
