In year 1967, the Prince Auto Company was amalgamated with Nissan and it gave a new beginning to the GT-R amazing string. Although, this vehicle model was being brought by modest Nissan family and it was the period when the GT series was getting more and more appreciation in the automobile market. Nissan considered taking the lead on the Porsche 904 during the Japanese Grand Prix from the time when the initial ancestor of the GTR, the S54 2000 GT-B was ranked second in the initial races in year 1964. Therefore, in year 1969, Nissan successfully premiered its very original race-spec GT-R and the Porsche 904 was left behind in the race. This was the initial times of the Nissan GTR Proto.

Nissan simply turned out the entire next generation of the GTR Proto, it was a 4-door sedan. It was extremely outstanding as it was good enough to acquired more than 30 victories in a very short period of time and that was for one year and a half. In year 1972, the vehicle achieved 1000 victories; however, the company terminated it. The next year, it came up with a superior version and then again, the manufacturing was again stopped in year 1977 because of poor sales. Later on, the KPGC110 2000GTR was one of the last and original models by Nissan. Nevertheless, it was never being utilized for racing purposes.

Later on, the production started and the vehicle attained outstanding success on the racing tack which built the prestige of Nissan up to a great deal. The car was truly redesigned and this time it was based on advanced technology which certainly was the need of the time. Such vehicle by Nissan simply smothered the eagerness and passion for high and superior performance vehicle in the entire automobile industry market.

You have a Nissan GTR and you want a more of a unique appearance with carbon fiber. I would advise you to add a Carbon Fiber Hood. Change the factory part and adding a Carbon's Fibers Hood to your GTR's will make your appearance more unique. A lot of sport cars have Carbon's Fiber Hoods that gives them more expensive appearance. By adding the Carbon's Fibers door you will lose weight on your GTR's. The reason is the factory build there cars to weigh a certain amount with their heavy metal product. By removing the factory door and adding Carbon's Fiber Hoods you gain more power and weigh less. Carbon's Fiber Hoods is exactly what the name suggests, extremely thin strong fibers and is most notably used to reinforce composite materials, particularly the class of materials known as carbon's fiber or graphite reinforced polymers.

A Carbon's Fiber Hoods will give you the aggressiveness look that your car needs to intimidate your competition. These Carbon's Fiber kit also have a rear and front bumper, and side skirts. Make sure to add wider wheels and tires to your car giving it a broader stance. Carbon's Fiber Hoods can actually increase the performance and handling of your vehicle as well as improving the aerodynamics of your car body. The faster you drive the more air is forced under your cars body. This can cause you to lose control of your car, or give you poor handling performance. A Carbon's Fiber Hoods wind splitters is a protruding flat surface in the front of a car that is designed to decrease front end lift and exert down force. As the air passes over the top of the cars body it comes in contact with the wing pressing down creating better traction.

Now in its second year, the GT-R, Nissan's iconic supercar, roared onto the scene for the 2010 model year. The inception year, in which the Nissan GT-R for sale experienced far more success than anyone expected, was a tough act to follow. The Nissan GT-R had its work cut out for it. Did Nissan exceed? The answer to that question is a resounding yes, if for no other reason than the reprogramming of the launch control system that had caused so many problems in the 2009 edition.

The 2010 Nissan GT-R for sale is a high-performance sports coupe with 2+2 seating available at two trim levels. The base trim includes 20-inch alloy wheels, keyless entry and ignition, automatic climate control, leather upholstery, power front seats, Brembo brakes, xenon headlights, and an electronically adjustable suspension. It also includes Bluetooth connectivity, a 6-speaker CD/MP3 sound system with satellite radio, a navigation system with a 30GB hard drive, and a driver-configurable multifunction information monitor.

On top of that impressive package, the Premium trim level adds heated front seats and higher performance tires. Nissan also upgrades the audio package to an 11-speaker Bose system with dual subwoofers. There are also three options. One is the Cold Weather package including Dunlop all-season tires and a unique coolant-to-water ratio that Nissan installs at no additional charge. The "Super Silver" paint scheme and the iPod connectivity come at an additional charge.

Under the hood, the all-wheel-drive 2010 Nissan GT-R for sale includes a 3.8-liter V6 with twin-turbochargers that provides an exhilarating 485 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque. Nissan pairs the engine with a 6-speed dual-clutch automated manual transmission. With this setup, the Nissan GT-R powers from 0-60 mph in less than 4 seconds, and it accomplishes the quarter-mile in less than 12 seconds at a top speed near 120 mph. Not that anyone in the market for a Nissan GT-R for sale will care, but the EPA estimates fuel performance as 16 mpg city, 21 mpg highway, and 18 mpg combined.

The Nissan GT-R's interior is driver-focused, and it does an amazing job providing a near-perfect driving experience for short periods. However, the interior is otherwise a bit on the minimalist side. The quality of what is there is quite high, and it all gives the impression of master craftsmanship. The snug sport-style bucket seats are fine for relatively short trips, but the entire experience becomes backbreaking if one pushes it. The rear seating is appropriate for no one save small children on short trips.

The multifunction performance monitor we mentioned in the equipment section is a polarizing addition. Polyphony Digital created it. They are the same company that makes the highly popular Gran Turismo video game for the PlayStation consoles. One can definitely see that inspiration in the design. One will either love it or hate it. If you find yourself in the latter category, it's easily ignored and not a deal-breaker.

The bottom line on the 2010 Nissan GT-R for sale is that it's an amazing performance vehicle, and is perfect for the person who has big money to spend on a big toy. The fact that Nissan doesn't offer a manual transmission will be a deal-breaker for some. For everyone else just seeking a sports car, the big and bulky nature of this one along with a ride that grows uncomfortable over time will likely send them looking elsewhere.

The Nissan GTR has always been a vehicle that stands for extreme performance. What most people don't realize when they think about this machine is that it has always been a well rounded type of performance car. The new R35 GTR has been injected with the same DNA as the previous R32, R33, and R34 models. This means that the car will have extreme performance and also practicality to meet the demands of anyone's lifestyle. Nissan describes the new R35 GTR as a multi-performance sports car meaning that it's not just another fast car with all the right numbers that look great in magazines.

The main question about the R35 GTR would be, "Is it a super car?" The fact that this question has been brought up makes me happy to see that people realize there is more to a super car than just the numbers generated from performance tests. When I think of a super car or at least what a super car has been up until now would be something that is fast, stimulating, violent, loud, and visually attractive on an extreme level. The GTR without a doubt is fast, and not just in a straight line. This vehicle took out top level Porsche models and also gave the lightened Gallardo a run for its money on Tsukuba circuit in Japan. It also clocks one of the best times on Germany's Nurburgring for a production car which is a better reference than a tight circuit like Tsukuba. With these accomplishments it can be said that the GTR has great power, braking, and cornering abilities that either match or rival cars that are considered super cars.

It's as fast as a super car, but that's not enough. My opinion is that it doesn't fall short of being called one, it just falls somewhere else. A super car is just a category, it doesn't necessarily mean better. The R35 is better than a super car, but the things that make it better would be the only reasons why someone would rather not buy it. It's a useful machine, meaning that it can get you to work in any condition and can be driven all year round through any rain or snowstorm. It has space for passengers and luggage. It's quiet enough to drive down the street at 2am without the neighbors hating you. It rounded and can visually fit in with the rest of the cars on the road, especially 350zs and G35s. These are all great qualities, but not the types of traits that the type of person that will buy such an item is looking for. Most people that are in the market for a vehicle like this are looking for one thing and one thing only, extravagance, both in the looks, and the driving characteristics of the car.

Nissan gtr

The fact that most of this machine's testing was done on the Nurburgring says a lot about it. Nurburgring is a demanding circuit that requires a car to be setup to be both fast and safe simultaneously. The ideal car at this circuit would be something that makes the driver feel safe while clocking amazing times. One lap around this course in a real super car would make most people have a heart attack before they got halfway through, but in this car anyone can do a few laps in a row without shaking too much while traveling at the same speeds. The R35 is a perfect ultra high performance street car designed for the average driver. Certain pro racing drivers like Keiichi Tsuchiya drove this car and did not like that fact that it had so many computers that take away control from the driver, saying that the car felt "unnatural" at its limits. What a pro doesn't realize is that the average driver that doesn't practice on the track daily is happy to return some driver control responsibilities back to the car so he or she doesn't have to worry while they rush to work or have some fun of winding roads during their weekend off.

Even though the R35 is not a super car, it is still something different that sends a positive message to people about the advancement in automobiles. Sure it's not raw enough to be a pure sports car like the NSX R or Porsche GT3 that are designed for driving enthusiasts that want to be stimulated, but I believe that Nissan wanted to show the world what they are capable of doing in terms of drivability technology with this car. Pure sports cars are generally fast because they are stiff, lightweight, and responsive, much like racing cars driven by professionals off the streets. The GTR weighs almost 2 tons meaning that the secrets to its speed are not so simple. The R35 can be considered to be a beast with manners that was built to appeal to everyone. It may be a little too cheap for the status driven upper class and a little too pricey for the current 350z, Evo, and STI owners. A car's price says a lot about it and for only $80K, I would say that it should be higher to match the lower numbers that it generated during its performance tests.

Some of us wish for a noticeable vehicle that is comfy and can be utilized everyday. Nissan has figured out this problem with the production of the 2009 GT-R. Nissan preferred to leave the unique design that sets it aside from other super cars on the road - but gave it an engine that would make it celebrated. The cost for the whole package is around $80,000.

The 2009 Nissan GT-R still has a very competitive edge to it thanks to the dark grille and sharp headlights and fenders that it is built with. Very few cosmetic changes have been made to this model. The whole of the body has been built with a unibody monocoque from steel. The front part is made with carbon fiber to make it lightweight compared to its other variations.

Nissan also created a carbon fiber driveshaft that is built from the back of the engine to the transaxle. This transaxle has a dual clutch six speed gearbox. The computer made into it will have the ability to adjust the front to the rear torque split. After which the power from the front wheels will travel to a small carbon fiber driveshaft above before moving on to the right, primary driveshaft.

The automaker has permitted the transmission to run in the fully automatic mode. However, most people feel that it works easier when applying the shift paddles that have been mounted to the steering wheel.

When plans of the GT-R leaked out it was natural for many of us to accept that it would be powered by the twin turbocharged version of the VQ-Series V6 that Nissan is best-known for using. However, this time they decided to use a brand new VR38 engine - which is similar to the VQ. Each of the twin turbo, intercooler VR38 V6 are put together by hand before installation.

Nissan gtr

The quantity of power forced out of this engine is 473 horsepower and 6,400 rpm. This allows it to rev from 0 to 62 mph in 3.5 seconds with a top speed of 193 mph. It came as no surprise to us that the 2009 Nissan GT-R became famous for running a quarter mile in only 11.7 seconds.

Nissan gtr

This put its power output and speed neck in neck with that of the Porsche 911 Turbo. Porsche could sense the heat and the competition and felt that Nissan was being untruthful with these lap times. So they disputed them and told them to execute it again. But this did not shift their numbers in the slightest. The Nissan GT-R is truly a tremendous super car!
