Updated Nissan GT-R for Europe
As production of the European specification Nissan GT-R begins in its Tochigi plant in Japan this month, a raft of small but significant changes have been made to the car as part of its [I]kaizen[/I] - continuous improvement - philosophy.
The GT-R's hand-built 3.8-litre V6 twin-turbo engine has gained 5PS thanks to some fine tuning of its electronics, taking power output to 485PS, while torque remains unchanged at 588Nm. Additionally, Dunlop SP Sport 600 DSST tyres will be fitted as standard. The tyre was developed specifically for the GT-R and it combines grip and durability, as demonstrated during its 'time-attack' lap of the Nurburgring, which yielded a time of 7 minutes 29 seconds. And, just to improve the ride performance even further, a modification has been carried out to the suspension spring rate settings.
Another update sees the introduction of the Gun Metal grey coloured Rays seven-spoke alloy wheel design for the standard and Premium Edition GT-Rs, while the Black Edition will be fitted with the same design but, appropriately, in black. Additionally, customers can now choose a new pearl white called 'Storm' as an exterior colour - an eye-catching, deep white replacing the original pearl white which had a slightly darker shade.
