Works cars were purpose built in batches of 3 or 4 cars, meant for specific races. There are countless differences, but the primary difference is the use of a Works ZR bodyshell, whcih is derived from the PZR shell used in tie Z432-R. To learn about many more unique features, click here, and download the ‘Features’ PDF. There you will find lots of information highlighting the differences between a Works car and a standard production car.

The Works ZR bodyshell looks like a standard S30 shell from afar, but on close inspection, it has several characteristics which distinguish it from stock. Most obvious is the spare tire delete, and mounting points for a 100L fuel tank. Some ZR shells incorporated thicker or thinner sheetmetal stampings. Many also have unique racing belt mounting points, and drilled access holes to expose any captured nuts. Find out more here

No one knows for sure how many Works ZR shells were made, but a good guess would be approximately 40 shells for rallying. The Registry section highlights a sample of Works shells for both track and rally.
