Q: How many Gentleman Edition GT-Rs were produced?

Nissan produced 10 Gentleman Edition GT-Rs for France and Belgium.

One of 43: 2011 Nissan GT-R EGOIST Available in Japan

2026-07-28T14:16:07.898-07:00

Only 43 Nissan R35 GT-R EGOIST and closely related VVIP models are believed to have been produced. One of those exceptionally rare cars is now available through Toprank in Japan.

This 2011 GT-R EGOIST is finished in the EGOIST exclusive Ultimate Opal White, color code QAG, over a handcrafted white and black full leather interior. It combines the major 2011 R35 performance updates with the most elaborate luxury treatment Nissan ever offered for the GT-R.

One of only 43 EGOIST and related VVIP models believed to have been produced.

The Luxury R35 GT-R

Nissan developed the EGOIST in a completely different direction from the performance focused GT-R SpecV.

The SpecV removed the rear seats, added carbon ceramic brakes, revised the suspension and concentrated on track performance. The EGOIST retained the capability of the standard GT-R while surrounding its occupants with materials and craftsmanship normally associated with much more traditional luxury cars.

The interior was extensively covered in handcrafted leather produced by Seton Company in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany. Leather was applied to the seats, dashboard, doors, center console and other interior surfaces.

The leatherwork was complemented by suede upper trim and a handcrafted Wajima lacquer GT-R emblem. This combination of German leather craftsmanship and traditional Japanese lacquer work made the EGOIST unlike any other factory R35.

The white and black cabin shows why the EGOIST is much more than an appearance package.

Why Only 43 Cars Matters

Nissan produced the R35 GT-R for nearly two decades, but many of its best-known special versions were built in much larger numbers than the EGOIST.

Approximately 110 GT-R SpecV models were produced. Nissan limited the Midnight Opal Special Edition to 100 cars worldwide, while approximately 79 completed 45th Anniversary cars have been documented.

The accepted EGOIST total is only 43 cars, including closely related VVIP versions supplied to selected export markets. That makes it one of the rarest factory versions of the R35.

The Major 2011 R35 Update

The EGOIST was introduced with one of the most important updates in the history of the R35.

Nissan increased output from the VR38DETT to 530 PS and 612 Nm of torque. The changes included revised intake and exhaust systems, new engine management calibration, transmission refinements, increased chassis rigidity, suspension revisions and new aerodynamic bodywork.

The Bilstein DampTronic suspension was retuned, the GR6 transmission continued to evolve, and the revised body improved both cooling and aerodynamic performance.

The result was an R35 that was faster, more refined and better suited to the grand touring mission of the EGOIST.

EGOIST Exclusive Equipment

The EGOIST combined its bespoke interior with several desirable components related to the GT-R SpecV.

Handcrafted full leather interior
Suede upper interior trim
Wajima lacquer GT-R emblem
Carbon fiber rear spoiler
Blue Sword Chrome finished forged RAYS wheels
Titanium exhaust system
EGOIST specific exterior and interior combinations
Specially configured BOSE audio system

The EGOIST was not simply a Premium Edition with white leather and additional badging. Nissan changed the materials, production process, interior finish and exterior details to create a genuinely separate R35 model.

Ultimate Opal White and BOSE Precision Sound

This example was ordered with two of the most desirable and expensive factory options available for the EGOIST.

Ultimate Opal White, QAG, was an EGOIST exclusive color with a factory option price of ¥525,000.

The car also has the optional BOSE Precision Sound System, which originally cost ¥1,207,500. Together, the paint and audio system represented more than ¥1.7 million in factory options.

The white exterior and white and black leather interior are particularly appropriate for an EGOIST. The light interior makes the extent of the leatherwork immediately visible and separates the car from a conventional Premium Edition or Black Edition.

New Tires and TPMS Sensors

This GT-R has recently received new Dunlop SP Sport MAXX GT 600 DSST CTT tires and new tire pressure monitoring system sensors.

Correct tires matter on an R35. The original run flat construction, tire age, matching specifications and TPMS operation should all be considered when inspecting an older GT-R.

Installing new tires and sensors removes two significant age related maintenance items and makes the car ready to be driven and enjoyed.

Buy, Drive and Store It in Japan

This Japanese market 2011 GT-R is not yet eligible for normal United States importation under the federal 25 year exemption. Eligibility will depend on the car’s exact month and date of manufacture, not simply the model year shown on the registration.

An American buyer does not have to wait until the car becomes 25 years old to purchase it.

Toprank can assist with the purchase, inspection, Japanese storage, maintenance, registration and ownership of the car while it remains in Japan.

The owner can potentially return to Japan, drive the car, attend events, visit GT-R specialists, and enjoy it at locations such as Fuji Speedway or Tsukuba Circuit before eventually importing it.

A Rare Opportunity for an R35 Collector

The R35 is entering a period where production numbers, factory originality, special equipment, documentation and unusual specifications are becoming as important as horsepower.

The EGOIST represents a very specific part of GT-R history. It was Nissan’s attempt to prove that the R35 platform could support not only a world class performance car, but also a genuinely handcrafted luxury flagship.

With only 43 EGOIST and closely related VVIP cars believed to have been completed, opportunities to purchase one will remain uncommon.

How Many Nissan R35 GT-R SpecV and Egoist Models Were Made?

2026-07-22T15:02:14.219-07:00

How Many Nissan R35 GT-R SpecV and Egoist Models Were Made?

Nissan produced the R35 GT-R for nearly two decades, but some of its earliest special models were built in remarkably small numbers. The two that matter most are the performance focused GT-R SpecV and the luxury focused GT-R Egoist.

Based on production records and surviving chassis information, Nissan built approximately 110 R35 GT-R SpecV models and only 43 R35 GT-R Egoist models worldwide.

The important numbers

R35 GT-R SpecV: 110 produced
R35 GT-R Egoist: 43 produced

That makes the Egoist substantially rarer than the SpecV. The SpecV, however, is the more technically significant model because Nissan changed its brakes, turbochargers, suspension, exhaust, wheels, body components and seating arrangement.

Early R35 GT-R Special Edition Production Numbers

R35 GT-R model	Years	Production	Market
GT-R SpecV	2009 to 2011	110	Japan and selected international markets
GT-R Egoist and VVIP	2011 to 2012	43	Japan and selected export markets
Gentleman Edition	2013	10	France and Belgium
Midnight Opal Special Edition	2014	100	Worldwide, including 50 for the United States
45th Anniversary Edition	2015	79 documented	Worldwide
Usain Bolt Gold GT-R	2012	1 charity car	One off promotional and charity vehicle

Production totals can be complicated. Nissan sometimes announced a maximum allocation rather than the number of completed cars. The figures above represent the best currently documented production totals through the early part of R35 production.

R35 GT-R SpecV: 110 Produced

Introduced in Japan in January 2009, the SpecV was the first serious factory performance derivative of the R35 GT-R. It was not simply a color or trim package.

Nissan fitted the SpecV with larger turbochargers, a high gear boost control function, carbon ceramic brakes, a titanium exhaust, lightweight forged RAYS wheels, revised suspension and carbon fiber aerodynamic components. The rear seats were removed and replaced by a storage shelf.

Despite the larger turbochargers and additional boost function, Nissan advertised approximately the same peak power as the regular GT-R. The changes were intended to improve sustained performance, response and track capability rather than produce an impressive brochure horsepower number.

The SpecV was extremely expensive when new. It cost nearly twice as much as a standard Japanese market GT-R, which helped keep production low. Approximately 110 cars were produced worldwide, with the majority remaining in Japan.

Nissan did not officially sell the SpecV in North America.

R35 GT-R Egoist: Only 43 Produced

The Egoist took the R35 in a completely different direction. Instead of removing luxury equipment to build a more focused track car, Nissan created an individually configured luxury GT-R.

The Egoist used hand selected leather with a wide range of upper and lower interior color combinations. Interior components were sent to Germany, where specialist craftspeople completed much of the leatherwork by hand.

Egoist equipment included several desirable SpecV components:

Lightweight forged RAYS wheels
Carbon fiber rear spoiler
Titanium exhaust system
Hand finished leather interior
Special Bose audio tuning matched to the owner
Unique interior and exterior color combinations
Special red GT-R steering wheel emblem

Cars sold in certain Middle Eastern markets were called the GT-R VVIP. These were closely related to the Egoist and are generally included within the same extremely small production group.

Only 43 Egoist and related VVIP cars are believed to have been completed. Some Japanese publications round the figure to approximately 40, but 43 is the commonly accepted chassis based total.

View the GT-R Egoist at Toprank

This 2011 Egoist is currently with Toprank Classic Specialties in Noda, Japan. It combines an Ultimate Opal White exterior with the dramatic white Egoist interior and has traveled 40,425 kilometers.

The white interior is important because the interior treatment is what separates an Egoist from an ordinary Premium Edition or Black Edition. This was not simply a white GT-R with a badge added to it. The leather covered the seats, dashboard, doors, console and other interior surfaces, with much of the work completed by hand.

With only 43 cars produced in all configurations, finding an Egoist for sale is unusual. Finding one still in Japan with full maintenance records provides an opportunity to properly inspect, service and preserve the car before it becomes eligible for normal United States importation under the 25 year exemption.

Buy, Drive and Store an R35 GT-R in Japan

An early R35 does not have to sit unused while waiting to become 25 years old. Toprank can help purchase, register, maintain and store the car in Japan. Owners can return to Japan and enjoy their GT-R at locations such as Fuji Speedway, Tsukuba Circuit and other events before eventually exporting it.

The European GT-R Gentleman Edition

The Gentleman Edition is one of the least known early R35 special editions. Nissan produced only 10 examples for France and Belgium in 2013.

It was based on the Black Edition and finished in Squale Grey with an amber red leather interior. Each car received a numbered plaque, special badging and matching luggage and leather accessories.

Unlike the Egoist, the Gentleman Edition did not receive a completely bespoke hand finished interior program. It was primarily a regional luxury and appearance edition, but with only 10 cars, it is one of the rarest officially marketed R35 editions.

Midnight Opal Special Edition: 100 Cars

For 2014 Nissan offered the GT-R in Midnight Opal, a color shifting paint that changes between purple, blue and darker tones depending on lighting and viewing angle.

Nissan limited the edition to 100 cars worldwide. Fifty were allocated to the United States. The car also received a gold colored model plate in the engine compartment and a serialized plaque.

It is a rare and highly recognizable factory edition, although mechanically it is much closer to a regular Premium Edition than a SpecV.

How Many 45th Anniversary GT-Rs Were Actually Made?

The 2015 GT-R 45th Anniversary Edition creates confusion because Nissan announced different numbers at different stages.

Nissan initially announced 45 Japanese market cars in Silica Brass, a color associated with the R34 Skyline GT-R M Spec. The program was later expanded to a proposed worldwide total of 100.

Chassis and market research has documented approximately 79 completed cars. That appears to include approximately 25 in Japan, 27 in the United States, five in the United Kingdom, four in Australia and additional cars supplied to the Middle East and other markets.

For that reason, it is more accurate to say that 100 were planned or authorized, while approximately 79 have been documented as actually produced.

What About the GT-R NISMO and Track Edition?

The early GT-R NISMO and Track Edition should not be treated the same way as a numbered special edition.

Nissan built very small numbers of the original R35 NISMO beginning with the 2014 model, but it continued as a production grade. Numbers such as “200 cars” are often repeated without explaining whether they refer to an annual allocation, one market or an initial production run.

The Track Edition also appeared over multiple model years and in several markets. It was a recurring trim level rather than one fixed worldwide production batch.

The N Attack Package creates another counting problem. It could be fitted to a NISMO through the NISMO Omori Factory and was not necessarily identified as a completely separate model by its chassis number. A real N Attack car should have documentation confirming its specification and installation.

Which Early R35 GT-R Is the Most Collectible?

Pure production numbers do not tell the complete story.

The SpecV is the most technically important early special model.
The Egoist is rarer and offers the most elaborate factory interior.
The Gentleman Edition has the smallest regular production run but is primarily a regional trim package.
The Midnight Opal is immediately recognizable and was sold in the United States.
The 45th Anniversary connects the R35 directly to the color and heritage of the R34 M Spec.
The early NISMO offers the greatest factory performance, even though it was not a single fixed production run.

If the question is simply which is rarer, the answer is clear: 43 Egoists compared with 110 SpecVs. If the question is which represented the largest change to the R35 as a performance car, the SpecV remains the more significant model.

2025 Nissan R35 GT R Premium Edition T Spec in Millennium Jade for sale in Japan

Drive your own R35 GT R in Japan.

Buy the right Japanese market R35, enjoy it on Japanese roads, attend events at Fuji Speedway, Tsukuba Circuit, or Suzuka Circuit, customize it through respected Japanese specialists, and store it until it becomes legally eligible for importation into the United States.

For an R35 enthusiast, this can be much more interesting than simply buying a car and leaving it parked for years.

The car can become part of your life in Japan long before it comes home.

Why Buy an R35 GT R in Japan?

The R35 GT R was officially sold in the United States, but the Japanese market offers versions, colors, specifications, histories, and condition levels that may be difficult to find here.

Potential targets include:

Early 2007 or 2008 Japanese market R35 GT Rs
Low mileage original cars
Rare factory colors
Premium Edition models
T Spec models
Track Editions engineered by NISMO
R35 GT R NISMO models
Final production 2025 cars
Cars built or maintained by respected Japanese tuning shops

The right car may become available many years before it reaches the normal 25 year import date.

Buying it early can allow you to secure the specification you really want instead of waiting until every American buyer is searching for the same cars.

Drive It in Japan

The car does not have to remain locked away in storage.

Depending on its registration, inspection, insurance, condition, and maintenance plan, an owner may be able to visit Japan and drive the car during the trip.

A Japanese ownership experience may include:

Driving through Tokyo
Touring Hakone and mountain roads
Attending R’s Meeting or NISMO Festival
Visiting Japanese tuning shops
Participating in Toprank events
Driving at Fuji Speedway
Attending a Tsukuba Circuit track day
Visiting or driving at Suzuka Circuit
Creating photo and video content with the car

Fuji Speedway is one of Toprank’s largest customer events and gives owners an opportunity to experience their cars at one of Japan’s most famous circuits.

A clean Pure Edition or Track Edition may be ideal for this type of active ownership, while an extremely low mileage T Spec or NISMO may be better suited to preservation.

Store It Until It Reaches 25 Years Old

A Japanese market R35 that does not currently meet United States federal requirements generally must remain outside the country until it qualifies through an appropriate legal import pathway.

For most Japanese market R35 GT Rs, the normal federal safety exemption begins when the individual vehicle reaches 25 years from its actual manufacture date.

Manufacture year	Approximate eligibility year
2007	2032
2008	2033
2015	2040
2020	2045
2025	2050

These are estimated years. The exact manufacture date must be confirmed before export.

Storage should include more than parking the car and disconnecting the battery.

Indoor storage
Battery maintenance
Fuel condition management
Oil and fluid service
Tire pressure monitoring
Protection from flat spotting
Moisture and rodent inspection
Periodic system checks
Condition photographs
Written maintenance records

Customize It Through the Global Tuning Program

Through the Toprank Global Tuning Program, customers can purchase a car in Japan and develop it through selected Japanese tuning and restoration partners.

The program can also support customers who want to send an existing car to Japan for tuning or restoration.

An R35 program may include:

Initial inspection and baseline testing
Preventive maintenance
GR6 transmission service
Suspension development
Brake upgrades
Wheel and tire selection
Cooling improvements
Road preparation
Track preparation
Cosmetic restoration
Authentic Japanese parts
Build photography and documentation

The goal does not have to be maximum horsepower.

A delivery mileage T Spec may need preservation. A Pure Edition may benefit from carefully selected reliability and handling upgrades. A Track Edition may be prepared for Fuji, Tsukuba, or Suzuka.

Dustin Williams and Midori Seibi

Dustin Williams provides a good example of how Japanese ownership can become more than storage.

He purchased his R34 GT R through Toprank, drove it in Japan, attended events, and later had the car customized with a specially built Midori Seibi engine.

The car developed a real Japanese history before it eventually came to the United States.

An R35 owner could follow a similar path: buy the car, enjoy it in Japan, develop it with respected specialists, and import it when the correct legal pathway becomes available.

Built By Legends and Future R35 Possibilities

Built By Legends brings together Japanese craftsmen, tuners, restoration specialists, and manufacturers to create high level Japanese restomods.

The best known programs currently include R32, R33, and R34 Skyline GT R projects with MINE’S and Garage Yoshida. Built By Legends has also expanded into Honda projects and is not limited to one manufacturer.

As the R35 becomes an established Japanese classic, this opens the possibility of future R35 preservation, restoration, and restomod programs.

A future R35 project could focus on:

Factory quality restoration
Long term preservation
Road focused development
Track focused preparation
Japanese tuning history
A complete restomod created with selected Japanese partners

The idea is not that every R35 should become a full restomod.

The opportunity is access to Japanese knowledge, craftsmanship, tuning, and restoration while the car remains in Japan.

Hiroshi Tamura and Toprank

Hiroshi Tamura, the former Nissan Chief Product Specialist closely associated with the R35 GT R and modern Nissan Z, is Toprank’s Global Brand Ambassador.

Known by many enthusiasts as “Mr. GT R,” Tamura san spent decades helping shape Nissan’s modern performance cars.

His philosophy fits this type of ownership experience. A GT R should not be treated only as an asset or a collection of specifications.

It should have character, a connection with its driver, and a story.

Inspect the Car Before Buying

An R35 should not be purchased based only on mileage, auction grade, or photographs.

Important inspection points include:

GR6 transmission operation
Clutch learning and shift quality
Engine and turbocharger condition
Fluid leaks
Accident repairs
Underbody damage
Brake rotor and pad condition
Tire age and matching specifications
Suspension wear
Stored fault codes
Aftermarket programming
Service history
Chassis number and registration documents

Low mileage does not automatically mean perfect condition. A properly maintained higher mileage car may be a better purchase than a neglected collector car.

What Toprank Can Do

Toprank can assist with:

Locating an R35 in Japan
Inspecting the car before purchase
Reviewing its history and condition
Completing the purchase
Arranging storage
Coordinating Japanese registration and insurance
Maintaining the car
Preparing it for road or track use
Coordinating tuning through GTP
Preserving records and original parts

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an American buy an R35 GT R in Japan?

Yes. Buying and owning the vehicle in Japan is separate from importing it into the United States.

Can I drive the car when I visit Japan?

Potentially, yes. The R35 must have the proper Japanese registration, inspection, insurance, maintenance, and operating arrangements.

Can I take it to Fuji, Tsukuba, or Suzuka?

Potentially. The vehicle must meet the event’s technical and safety requirements, and entry, maintenance, tires, brakes, fluids, and insurance should be arranged in advance.

When will the first Japanese R35s become 25 years old?

The earliest 2007 production cars should begin reaching 25 years of age during 2032. The exact date depends on the individual vehicle’s manufacture date.

Can Toprank customize the car in Japan?

Yes. The Global Tuning Program can coordinate maintenance, tuning, restoration, road preparation, or track preparation through selected Japanese partners.

Could Built By Legends create an R35 project?

Potentially in the future. Built By Legends already works with Skyline GT R and Honda projects, and its broader philosophy is not limited to one model or manufacturer.

Drive It Now. Import It Later.

The idea is simple:

Buy the right R35 GT R in Japan. Drive it there. Customize it if desired. Attend events. Store and maintain it correctly. Then import it to the United States when it becomes legally eligible.

The years before importation do not have to be spent waiting.

They can become part of the ownership story.

7-Eleven Hot Wheels 2017 Nissan GT-R R35 Is a $7.11 Exclusive

2026-07-16T21:40:12.775-07:00

The newest 7-Eleven and Hot Wheels collaboration is a 1:64 scale 2017 Nissan GT-R R35. It wears a white 7-Eleven livery, carries an appropriately specific $7.11 retail price and is already attracting attention from GT-R and diecast collectors.

For the second consecutive year, 7-Eleven and Mattel have released an exclusive Hot Wheels model. The 2026 release uses the 2017 Nissan GT-R casting, representing the heavily revised version of the R35 that received new bodywork, an updated interior and 565 horsepower in North American specification.

Where to buy the 7-Eleven Hot Wheels GT-R

The Nissan GT-R is being offered at participating 7-Eleven, Speedway and Stripes stores, as well as through the official 7Collection merchandise store, while supplies last. Availability will vary by location.

Try retail first. The official price is $7.11. Online asking prices can be substantially higher once shipping is included, and they can move quickly after the initial release. If the official store is sold out or your local stores did not receive the car, compare the total delivered price across several listings.

What makes this Hot Wheels R35 different?

The release is based on the 2017 GT-R rather than one of the many Skyline GT-R castings. The real 2017 car was an important point in the R35 timeline, with the most substantial visual and interior update since the original production model appeared. That makes it a fitting modern GT-R choice for a branded collector release.

The white body carries 7-Eleven graphics and the familiar green, orange and red color scheme. The card artwork is part of the appeal, so sealed collectors should look closely for bent corners, soft edges, creases and cracked blisters. If you intend to open it, package condition matters much less and may save a few dollars.

Is it collectible?

It is certainly collectible in the ordinary sense: it is a store exclusive, uses a popular Japanese performance car and follows an earlier 7-Eleven Hot Wheels collaboration. None of that guarantees a future value. Production quantity, distribution and long term collector demand will matter more than high asking prices during release week.

For most GT-R owners and fans, the sensible play is simply to buy one near retail and enjoy it. Paying a large premium only makes sense if local stock is unavailable and the convenience is worth the difference to you.

Want the full size version? R35 GT-Rs for sale in Japan

If a 1:64 GT-R is only the beginning, Japan remains one of the most interesting places to search for the real thing. Japanese inventory can include specifications that are difficult to find in the United States, including Premium Edition T-spec cars, Track Editions engineered by NISMO, R35 GT-R NISMO models, rare factory colors and very low mileage final production examples.

Important for U.S. buyers: buying an R35 in Japan does not make it immediately legal for normal permanent importation. The federal age exemption is based on the individual car reaching 25 years from its actual manufacture date. The earliest 2007 Japanese R35s begin reaching that point in 2032. A 2025 car generally would not reach it until 2050. California registration is a separate issue from federal import eligibility.

Toprank can help locate and inspect an R35, purchase it in Japan, arrange storage or Japanese road registration, coordinate maintenance and prepare it for future export. With the correct registration, shaken, insurance and operating arrangements, an owner may also be able to drive the car during visits to Japan instead of leaving it in static storage for years.

Read the complete guide to buying, owning, driving and storing an R35 GT-R in Japan.

Quick buying checklist

Check participating 7-Eleven, Speedway and Stripes stores before paying resale prices.
Check the official 7Collection store for online stock.
Compare the total price after shipping, not just the item price.
Inspect package photos if card and blister condition matter to you.
Confirm whether the listing is for one car, a pair or a mixed GT-R and Supra set.
Treat current listings as asking prices, not evidence of completed sale value.

2020 Nissan GT-R Nismo

2019-04-22T10:29:00.000-07:00

NEW YORK – The 2020 Nissan GT-R NISMO made its world debut today, with race car-inspired upgrades and tuning improvements that maximize its exhilarating performance.

The model was showcased alongside the new 50th Anniversary Edition as Nissan celebrated 50 years of GT-R heritage at the New York International Auto Show.

"The 2020 GT-R NISMO has evolved into a balanced, yet extreme, performance car," said Hiroshi Tamura, chief product specialist for the GT-R. "Pursuing driving pleasure is the most important concept behind GT-R, and the new NISMO's performance suggest it is a car that belongs on the race track – but is also at home on the open road."

Designed for a pro, built for everyone

For the 2020 GT-R NISMO, Nissan engineers set out to take race-proven technology and make it accessible and comfortable for drivers of all skill levels. Vehicle control and predictability were critical in achieving this; thus, they adopted the theme "absolute street and track performance" when developing the car.

Setting the most potent and exclusive of all GT-Rs apart from the rest of the pack is the amount of carbon fiber found throughout the car, including the front and rear bumpers, front fenders, hood, roof, side sill covers, trunk and rear spoiler. Each component has been improved to cut weight, increase downforce and enhance aerodynamics. These exterior parts alone have resulted in a total weight savings of 23 pounds (10.5 kilograms), in addition to nearly 44 pounds (20 kilograms) of reductions from other upgrades and new components.

The front fenders now resemble those on the GT3 GT-R. Scalloped vents help funnel hot air away from the engine bay and provide exceptional downforce onto the front tires, without additional drag. They also improve aerodynamics by smoothing out airflow along the body, with special consideration given to avoiding the rear spoiler, promoting high-speed stability. A new compression process gives the carbon fiber roof a lightweight, tight weave.

The 2020 GT-R NISMO's exclusive 20-inch RAYS forged aluminum wheels are lighter than before and incorporate a nine-spoke design that enhances their rigidity. Newly designed Dunlop tires, with a wider tread and fewer grooves, increase the contact patch by 11%. This results in higher cornering force, enhanced steering response and improved rolling resistance when compared with the previous model.

Inside the cabin, exclusive GT-R NISMO front seats are designed to focus on holding the shoulder blades and lower body points, giving the driver a better sense of car and body as one.

Few cars possess the GT-R's driving performance. For the 2020 model, the engineers sought to improve what was essentially already mechanical perfection, "making small tweaks to squeeze out as much as possible from the engine and chassis," according to Tamura.

Nissan's 3.8-liter V6 24-valve twin-turbocharged engine – each handcrafted by its own takumi technician – remains the heart of the GT-R's drivetrain. The GT-R NISMO features an exclusive turbocharger design – direct from the GT-R GT3 race car - with a modified turbine shape and fewer blades. This optimizes the flow rate and enhances the acceleration response by 20%, without a loss of horsepower.

The car's revised 6-speed dual-clutch transmission features a refined "R mode" that not only shifts faster but also optimizes gear selection, especially when exiting corners. This enhances the feeling of acceleration and deceleration on both road and track. The adaptive shift control has also been programmed to adapt shift schedules to the user's driving style. This makes it possible to drive in a law-abiding way on public roads and in a highly spirited fashion on a race track, without manually changing modes (in A mode / R mode).

The car's exhaust note is the product of a revised titanium exhaust with handcrafted burnished blue tips.

When it comes to handling, the 2020 GT-R NISMO has few equals. Its updated suspension tuning improves cornering stability, with enhanced yaw rate response and smoother ride quality. The steering features better linearity and precision than ever, requiring minimal corrections at speeds of up to 186 mph (300 kph).

The absolute performance theme is also fittingly reflected by the addition of a carbon ceramic brake system. The combination of the Brembo carbon ceramic rotors — enlarged to 16.1 inches (410 mm) up front and 15.3 (390 mm) at the rear — and Brembo calipers significantly improve reaction time, durability and overall stopping performance. At the same time, their lightweight nature decreases the unsprung weight on each wheel, allowing the car to trace the intended driving line in a highly precise manner. The carbon and silica carbide structure of the rotors is nearly as hard as diamonds. When paired with the new material of the brake pads, they generate more friction for an enhanced controlled feeling in all types of braking situations. The new materials also help decrease braking footwork by shortening the brake pedal stroke. The newly developed high-rigidity calipers are dipped in bright yellow paint that can resist temperatures of more than 1,832 degrees Fahrenheit (1,000 degrees Celsius).

"We have built the 2020 GT-R NISMO for our customers to be the ultimate track and street vehicle," Tamura said. "It is about total balance management, not just chasing power figures. The new NISMO has been brought to a new level, with enhanced engine, handling, braking and aerodynamics."

Drag race | USA v Europe v Japan | Dodge Challenger Hellcat vs Porsche 911 Turbo S vs Nissan GT-R

2016-06-28T09:36:00.000-07:00

This is very simple: we have three great sports cars from three great car-making countries. And we want to know which is fastest in a quarter-mile drag race.

From the USA, we have the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. From Germany, we have the Porsche 911 Turbo S. And from Japan, we have the car that has so far out-dragged everything we've put it up against, the Nissan GT-R.

This time, though, the GT-R might have met its match. After all, the 911 Turbo S is four-wheel drive and rear engined. The Hellcat is neither of those ... but it does have 707bhp.

Which do you think will be quickest?

2017 NISMO Nissan Skyline GT-R

2016-05-27T08:40:00.001-07:00

NÜRBURGRING, Germany – The new 2017 Nissan GT-R NISMO made its debut today at the famous Nürburgring race course, known as the one of the longest and most challenging race tracks in the world. This is also the place where the Nissan GT-R’s potent performance was honed, tuned and developed.

Like the standard model, the GT-R NISMO’s front end features a freshened face that’s highlighted by a new bumper. And to help cool the car’s high-output engine, the dark chrome V-motion grille has been enlarged to collect more air, without diminishing the car’s aerodynamic performance. A new significantly reinforced hood avoids deformation at extremely high speeds, allowing it to keep its aerodynamic shape at all times. But unlike the standard model, the front bumpers of the GT-R NISMO are made of carbon fiber, crafted with TAKUMI-like precision where layers of carbon-fiber sheets are carefully overlapped to achieve the ideal amount of stiffness. The canards have been designed to improve airflow around the vehicle and generate a high level of downforce, while at the same time, direct air around the wheelhouse to improve the aerodynamics. Overall, the car’s new shape generates more downforce than any other Nissan production car to date, which in turn results in exceptional high-speed stability.

The new GT-R NISMO is also the benefactor of the 2017 GT-R’s refreshed interior, whose cabin possesses a more upscale feel than ever before. The redesigned dashboard, steering wheel and center armrest are covered with high-quality Alcantara® leather. The center dash layout has been improved and simplified via integrated navigation and audio controls (reducing the number of switches from 27 in the previous model to only 11) and an enlarged 8-inch touch-panel monitor that features large icons on the display screen make it simple to use. A new Display command control on the carbon-fiber center console allows easy operation without having to touch the monitor; a feature that comes in handy when traveling at high speed. Unique to the GT-R NISMO are the leather-appointed Recaro® carbon bucket seats with red Alcantara inserts.

The performance of the all-wheel-drive GT-R NISMO has also been upgraded, thanks in part to the standard model’s significantly reinforced body. The stiffened body structure allowed the engineers to further refine of the GT-R NISMO’s shock absorbers, springs and stabilizers, all of which, when combined with the car’s added downforce, result in a better handling car than the previous model. This is evidenced by the car’s improved slalom times and superior cornering performance (both up by nearly 2 percent from the past model). The GT-R’s special Bilstein® DampTronic driver-adjustable system—which utilizes multiple vehicle information systems to provide appropriate damping forces and high level of control for a variety of driving situations—features a special NISMO-tuned shock absorber that more effectively transfers the power of twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V6, which still produces a remarkable 441kW (600PS) , to the road surface.

Dubbed the “VR38DETT,” the GT-R NISMO’s engine is the result of the expertise that NISMO has gained from participating in motorsports events around the globe. Mated to a 6-speed dual-clutch gearbox, it features a pair of high-flow, large diameter turbochargers used in GT3 competition. As with the standard model, each GT-R NISMO engine is hand-assembled from beginning to end in a special clean room by meticulously trained technicians, with an aluminum plate added to the front of each engine showing the name of the TAKUMI engine craftsman.

Despite its more potent nature, the new GT-R NISMO boasts better overall balance than before, evolving into a car that can be enjoyed on a winding mountain road as on the local race circuit.

“The GT-R NISMO emphasizes the ‘R’ in its nomenclature. Its direct ties with racing makes it at home on any racetrack, providing the highest levels of excitement and exhilaration for the driver. With the 2017 GT-R as a starting point, the new NISMO version has become a more well-balanced machine, with not just increased performance, but a heightened premium feel overall. It is the result of our relentless pursuit of ultimate driving pleasure,” said Hiroshi Tamura, the Chief Product Specialist of the GT-R NISMO and the standard GT-R.

The 2017 Nissan GT-R NISMO is available in five different exterior colors. It is assembled in Tochigi, Japan, with the engines hand-assembled in Yokohama, Japan.

Future Nissan GT-R To Be Electric?

2015-10-16T11:32:00.001-07:00

2020 Nissan GT-R Gran Turismo Concept

Top Gear has spoken to one of Nissans electric vehicle chiefs from Europe, and he had this to say about the idea of an all electric Nissan GT-R.

"“The rate of change over the last five years has been phenomenal,” Dunsmore told TG. “We can’t build an electric GT-R today. But do I want to? I’d love to. Will we be able to do that in the future? I can’t see a technical reason why we wouldn’t be able to implement electric vehicle technology in something like a performance vehicle.”

So is there any real chance? The Nissan GT-R Gran Turismo concept is due to be shown at the Tokyo Auto Show at the end of this month.

Is this what we are going to see in the R36 Nissan GT-R? All electric, hybrid? 4 cylinder maybe? Only the future will tell.

222 MPH Nissan Qashqai Video

2015-09-30T14:02:00.002-07:00

Your first question is probably, whats a Nissan Qashqai? Its a small Nissan crossover, that is closest to the Nissan Rouge sold here in the US. According to Wikipedia:

"The Qashqai is not offered in North American markets. Instead, Nissan offers the Nissan Rogue. Although larger and appearing to be a completely different model it is based on the same basic platform as the Qashqai / Xtrail with some visual similarities.

Some guys from Severn Valley Motorsports in the UK decided to put a full R35 GT-R drivetrain and engine under a Qashqai ala Nissan Juke-R.

In this video this "slightly modified" Qashqai hits a VMax of 222 mph, passing a 950 hp R35 GT-R at over 200 mph.

Nissan GT-R Nismo: Do you love the latest & greatest?

2015-07-30T18:36:00.000-07:00

NISMO Nissan GT-R

From the R32 days, the Nissan GT-R has been a polarizing car. "Too many computers." "It drives itself." However we feel that people that say those things either have 1) Never actually driven one or 2) Never really driven one hard.

Check out this video from Hooniverse, with their take on the NISMO edition of the R35 GT-R.

The Nissan GT-R has been a bit of a polarizing machine since it's arrived years ago. Some love it while others feel it can be a bit soulless.

Regardless, there's no denying its potent performance. Additionally, the car has only gotten faster, better, and more potent year after year. The latest and greatest version has spent time with the capable hands from the Nissan Motorsports division; otherwise known as NISMO.

The GT-R Nismo ups the crazy speed. It ups the crazy levels of grip, acceleration, stopping performance, and overall track-focused insanity.

Maybe it finally ups the number of people who love it for the absolutely focused machine that it is...

911 Turbo S vs 45th Anniversary GT-R vs AMG GTS

2015-07-20T19:18:00.001-07:00

Motor Trend pitted three heavy hitters against each other both on the track at Big Willow, and on the street. The 45th Anniversary GT-R is a bit long in the tooth, and softened. Nissan has the NISMO in the lineup for the hardcore guys, where as the normal GT-R is at a point where they are trying to make it more comfortable.

He wasn't as kind to the GT-R. "[It's] really a disappointment on the racetrack," he said. "The car has been altered for comfort. It feels very soft, a lot of roll, less-controlled vertical motions. GT-Rs have always been pretty darn stiff, but not this one. The turn-in is reasonably good, the tail comes out a little bit, there's a bit of roll, but once the weight finishes transferring, the car goes into a big understeer. Understeer dominates the car's personality around the racetrack. With light throttle it seems to free up a little bit, but trying to accelerate off a corner, big push. Even at high speed, in Turn 8 over here, the car understeered so badly I thought I might drive it off the road. The car stopped OK, but the pedal travel was long. The stopping was adequate but nowhere near the ballpark of the Porsche. This car just does not have the track-ready personality of the older GT-Rs."

Head over to the article for the full impressions, photo gallery and results. The GT-R still gets it in a straight line. 0-60 in 2.9 seconds. 11.2@122 in the quarter. Not too bad for a stock car.

AMS Alpha Omega : 7.485@192.97 mph

AMS Alpha Omega - wheels up

AMS has done it again with their Alpha Omega Nissan GT-R, reclaimed the ET, and MPH record for R35 Nissan Skyline GT-R's. 7.485@192.97 mph. Check out the video, sounds most hella mean.

Buy-R.com for Nissan Skyline GT-R and GT-R parts.

Note: All passes were completed in AWD. A Syvecs AWD Controller is used to temporarily disengage the front wheels to complete each burnout.

With the Texas Speed Syndicate King of the Streets victory in the books, it was time once again to focus on the drag strip for our shop R35 GT-R ALPHA OMEGA. OMEGA bas been doing its part to really test our Alpha VR38 Billet Block Program. Typically, at these high power levels, anyone in the game knows that the engine is like a grenade with the pin pulled out. We realized a while back we were surpassing the limits of the factory VR38 engine block. The block was flexing, causing bearing and head gasket failures. With our new billet block, we’ve remedied this by creating a solid foundation. Since introducing the Alpha Billet Block to Omega she has gone on a tour of sorts: Setting the ½ mile record for the R35 GT-R at 224.91mph Winning the King of the Streets event for the second time in a row Multiple short track test sessions at the drag strip

To top it all off, we have now run this full track rental day without a rebuild. Truly remarkable how much abuse this motor has taken at this astonishing HP level.

Some may ask “what’s next?” The truth is we don’t know but don’t think you have seen the last of Omega.

Nissan GT-R Takes Flight at the 2015 Pikes Peak Hill Climb

2015-07-02T09:48:00.001-07:00

Our friend Chris pointed us at this video from the 2015 Pikes Peak Hill Climb. He said its his old Midnight Purple R35(repaint), taking flight in this video. Randy Pobst at the helm. Lucky it wasn't a serious flight, but it still did some damage.

"Here's Pikes Peak Racing's 2009 Nissan GTR in Time Attack 2 drive by Randy Pobst in the 2015 PPIHC. The video ends unfortunately with a crash at the sump with our time in the first section being fastest in our class; we were looking to win. Thanks to our sponsors who helped make this happen: Forged Performance, T1 Race Development, Wine Country Motorsports, Elite Auto Salon, Pikes Peak Harley Davidson, Pikes Peak Motorsports, RaceKeeper, SPL Parts, 3R Racing, and Boulder Nissan. Now is the time to start the rebuilding process and get the GTR back on the track!"

Overall results. Is anyone going to be able to challenge the R35 GT-R for the top spot in this event? Guess we will have to wait until next year to find out.

2015 One Lap of America - One Event Left GT-R's 1 and 2

2015-05-08T17:22:00.000-07:00

Just one event left for the 2015 One Lap of America. GT-R's are at 1 and 2. Looks like the 3rd place car from AOK Networking had an issue. Its too bad. We wish them well. Just the Dry Skidpad left.

We were joking with Catesby Jones that One Lap might need to make a class just for the GT-R. A GT-R has won overall every year since 2011. Leh Keen and Doug Wilks won in a Porsche GT2 in 2010. A GT-R driven by William Taylor won overall in 2009.

Results from last event.

Catesby Jones - Fort Lauderdale Fl
William Taylor - Columbia SC

Lagging on the Tire Rack One Lap of America this year. We really like this grassroots event. A caravan of cars moving track to track. Setting some hot laps, and moving on. First event is done, Wet Skidpad, and a Dodge Viper is in the lead.

2nd place the 2010 Nissan GT-R from Catesby Jones and William Taylor(last years winners). 3rd place this year the duo of Todd Treffert, and Tyson Timperly, they have run everything from Nissan GT-R to Mercedes SLS, this year in a 2012 Porsche 911 Turbo. 4th spot belongs to the 2013 Nissan GT-R of Hugh Bate, a One Lap veteran. Three of the top 10 spots occupied by the R35 Nissan GT-R. Good luck to everyone, be safe, and lets put a GT-R on top again. 1,2,3 in 2014.

222 MPH Nissan GT-R Spin at Shift S3ector

2015-04-27T16:39:00.001-07:00

Nissan GT-R spinning at the end of a 1/2 mile pass

Now this was a wild ride. At the end of a standing 1/2 mile 222 mph pass at the Shift S3ector event this last weekend, this Nissan Alpha 20 GT-R spun. Luckily he missed anything too solid, and was able to drive back to the pits under his own power.

From the reports, just above 218 mph the ABS sensors run out of range. This can cause some problems.

"... this a lot better than me but from what was explained from the logs is that at 218mph the TC pretty much stops working and the car becomes a rear wheel drive car,there was a difference in wheel speed between the rear's and front's and a spike in RPM , also the ABS is effected somehow and the car reacts differently when applying the brakes at that speed,whether it was 100% the cause or not it should still be a factor to take in to consideration as we are in uncharted territory as we push these cars well beyond the limit of what they were designed for,
