Hello Magnusson-Moss!
"No aftermarket part or accessory that is properly installed on your vehicle will entirely void your original vehicle "

If it can be proven that VDC off does NOT cause problems he will win

Actually, you might want to rethink that. He could very well lose. It is expressly written in teh manufactures warranty booklet that driving with the VDC off will void the warranty. Right there Nissan and it's army of lawyers have the upper hand.

The thing he should do is find the other owners of the vehicles that are also fubared and get with them. Strength in numbers. If enough people ***** and moan, Nissan will just fix them to get them silenced and not go through it. But him alone, he doesn't stand that much of a chance.

Sad day indeed for GTRs

Yep, I'm sure they do have the upper hand, But if it voids the warrty why
can a GTR owner even turn off the VDC, thats the part that makes no
sence (sp) to me??

Any one have a clue on that one??

that entirely depends on the judge, though. It's somewhat hidden. Also, Launch Control was a big selling point of the car, they were whoring it up all over television. But you can't use the launch control without turning the VDC off. Technically still legal, but very sneaky.

Also, judging from the SEVEN spaces to record transmission replacements provided in the OM, it's a safe bet that Nissan KNEW the transmission was the GT-R's Achilles Heel.

A lot of you guys might not understand this. The issue is not whether or not he can afford to fix it or whether or not he was beating the shit out of his car.
The issue is that Nissan put a button on the dashboard of their "supercar" that, if pressed, will void your warranty.

Of course, arguing that he turned it off to use launch control is going to raise red flags with the judge for doing it on the street

yeah, but hopefully the judge won't get that sidetracked
