Nissan has just announced that an updated version of its most popular supercar will go on sale on November 24 in Japan. By mid 2012 this new version should arrive in gray car importers. This new Nissan GT-R will still carry the same 3.8-liter V6 engine but the output delivered will be increased from 390kW to 404kW (550PS/545 hp) at 6,400rpm with a maximum torque from 612 to 632Nm(64.5kgfm/463 lb-ft from 448 lb-ft) at 3,200 to 5,800 rpm. According to Nissan, the engine delivers more power due to improved intake efficiency, better airflow resistance and an improved exhaust valve cooling performance.
This new GT-R will also come with a “For TRACK PACK”, designed for customers who want to enjoy a more visceral driving experience. This version was developed with NordRing Company in Japan and offers revised suspension settings, extra brake cooling (front and rear), and aluminum-alloy wheels from Spec-V made by Rays (with black quartz chrome color coating). Moreover, the front spoiler with carbon air duct has been exclusively made for this edition and is installed as a set. In order to reduce the weight, this edition will be a two-seat configuration with quilted fabric mats in place of the rear seats. The front seats are covered with leather and high-grip fabric.
