    Default Nissan GTR Spec V?

    As previously reported, Nissan will launch an even more powerful GT-R version in 2009, with sales beginning in 2010. Now BestCar released a few renderings of how GT-R Spec-V might look like and also some informations about it.


    more info at bottom of page!!


    The bonnet is finished in raw carbon-fibre, which will no doubt please the Initial D crowd, while the front bumper sports some extra venting. The weight will be reduced with about 100 kg, bringing the total kerb weight to 1640kg.

    Power will also be increased with 40 hp, so the VR38DETT will now have a maximum output of 512 hp.
















    It's widely understood that Nissan will slowly roll out improved, and more specialised, models of the R35 GT-R over the next few years, with one of the most eagerly-anticipated of these being a lightweight, no-frills motorsport variant much like the V-Spec models of the R32-R34 generations.

    Best Car Magazine have produced their own rendering of just such a car, (above), and to give you an idea of what a "Spec V" might feature, past V Spec GT-R's typically had revised suspensions, lower weights and reprogrammed ATTESA-ETS all-wheel-drive systems.

    Best Car's article also depicts some kind of funky bracing arrangement in the rear of the cabin (below), which could either be a novel approach to rollover protection, or just a bad case of styling gone awry. The bonnet is finished in raw carbon-fibre, which will no doubt please the Initial D crowd, while the front bumper sports some extra venting. Best Car speculates that weight will also be pared down by some 100kg, bringing the total kerb weight to 1640kg - pretty porky, but still an improvement on the GT-R Premium Edition's almost 2-tonne mass. Power is also said to be up by around 30kW, bringing the VR38DETT's output to a grand total of 382kW.
