1. The 2009 GT-R, the sixth generation of Nissan's flagship sports car, is the first to come from a "clean-slate" design-all others were based on JDM Skyline models-and the first to be globally marketed.
2. A single technician in a climate-controlled clean-room environment hand assembles the all-new VR38DETT 3.8-liter twin-turbo V-6 (in Nissan's Yokohama factory) as well as the GR6 six-speed twin-clutch automatic (at the Aichi Machine Industry plant).
3. The GT-R undertook over 3100 miles of rigorous testing at the 12.9-mile Nrburgring Nordshleife, the world's most demanding racetrack. Its best lap time is 7:29, quicker than those of a Corvette Z06 and a 911 GT2.
4. The GT-R's "high-speed driving test"-the front passengers enjoying an easy conversation without raised voices at 186 mph-was performed mostly on German autobahns.
5. Product chief designer Hiroshi Hasegawa incorporated historical GT-R styling cues into the new model, namely the edgy box-shape of the 1969 PGC10 GT-R, the four round taillamps of the 1973 KPGC110 GT-R, and the prominent thin-slit grille of the 1999 R34 GT-R.
6. To ensure that virtually any driver can get comfortable, the GT-R boasts the greatest range of seat adjustment of any supercar-the driver's seat slides nine inches, raises 1.2 inches, and is rake-adjustable, easily accommodating anyone from 4 foot 9 to 6 foot 3. Also, the steering wheel both tilts and telescopes 2.4 inches.

7. Nissan calls it "Independent Transaxle 4WD." In other words, the GT-R is the world's first production car to feature a rear-mounted transaxle (transmission, clutch, and transfer case) and two independent propeller shafts (no torque tube), allowing each axle to control tire grip without manipulation from the other.
8. The GT-R's advanced ATTESA E-TS all-wheel-drive system can deliver up to 50 percent of torque to the front wheels, depending on feedback from sensors that measure speed, steering angle, tire slip, yaw rate, and lateral and transverse acceleration. Also incorporated is a yaw-rate feedback control sensor, which calculates target yaw rate based on steering angle and actual yaw rate based on the yaw-rate and g sensors, and then continuously distributes torque accordingly.
9. Specially developed Bilstein DampTronic monotube shocks feature sensors that gauge 11 elements, including vehicle speed, lateral acceleration, steering angle, engine rpm, brake oil pressure, and ABS behavior.
10. The GT-R incorporates "super-wide-beam headlamps" that utilize three additional subreflectors to enhance the illumination area. According to Nissan, they outperform swiveling lamps that rotate in turns, mostly because they provide superior light spread during high-speed straight-line driving.
11. The Brembo brake system uses fully floating 15.0-inch vented and drilled steel rotors that feature diamond-shaped inner ribs for better cooling. Monoblock calipers (six-piston front/four-piston rear) employ racing-style three-bolt structures to generate stout stopping force and avert caliper distortion.

12. The GT-R's body is composed of lightweight and advanced steels, die-cast aluminum (front suspension strut housings, front and rear suspension cross-brace members, rear-seatback support, door inners, tunnel stay), and carbon fiber (radiator core support, front of the engine bay, rear diffuser undertray). Further, the GT-R's underside-made up of, from front to rear, a polypropylene under cover, a glass-fiber sheet molding compound (SMC) under cover, a carbon SMC diffuser, and a carbon diffuser-helps achieve a 0.27 coefficient of drag.
13. Before being shipped from the Tochigi factory, the GT-R undergoes a nine-lap break-in regimen: Laps 1-3 (brake quenching), Lap 4 (brake break-in), Lap 5 (transmission break-in), Lap 6 (transmission break-in, engine boost pressure check), Lap 7 (transmission contact-sudden start), Laps 8, 9 (reducing friction of suspension).
ini mobil emg undoubtly super car japan paling top skg..ga tau kalo toyota ato honda keluarin rival nya..
aduh..keren banget yah lightnya..andaikan ada limbah projektornya.....hehehe
tadi barusan baca autobild indo
ada GTR vs R8 vs XKR-S
GTR katanya bantingannya keras, cuma emang dengan price/performance paling top
R8 tenaga nya lumayan tapi versi standarnya sama sekali ga enak buat dipake buat di tempat sempit kaya parkir dll soalnya ga punya sensor dll n klo mo ditawarin opsional yang harganya mayan mahal
XKR-S yg jelas mahal banget, dan desainnya lebih mengutamakan kenyamanan
saking mahalnya sampe di bandingin harganya XKR-S = GTR + Evo X (lumayan kan 2 mobil keren dalem 1 garasi)
kita tinggal tunggu aja deh versi GTR V-spec n versi2 laen yg jelas lebih mantep toh ni aja udah mantep apalagi versi laen di atasnya...
klo pengen nyoba maen gamenya NFS prostreet aja tuh...
mayan kan bisa nyoba akselerasinya
versi Vspec udah keluar cuma beda dikit sektor powernya:
(16/12/2008) - Nissan GT-R dipuji dibanyak tempat sebagai sport car terbaik saat ini. Tapi Nissan masih punya senjata rahasia, GT-R Spec V. Informasi awal varian ini dirilis di Jepang awal bulan ini.
GT-R Spec V memiliki power lebih besar, bobot yang jauh lebih ringan, rem keramik dan peredam kejut Bilstein Damptronic yang ditingkatkan standarnya. Dan masih masih banyak lagi ubahan yang dilakukan untuk meningkatkan peforma mobil, sekaligus kegembiraan pengemudinya.
Produksi daya maksimal mesin kini meningkat jadi 485ps/357kW, dilengkapi tombol overboost yang bakal terasa manfaatnya saat menyalip. Untuk peforma lebih ini, rem keramik menggambil alih tugas rem baja.
Interiornya kini banyak menggunakan serat karbon untuk memangkas berat. Warna interior hanya satu, hitam. Penggunaan serat karbon juga menyebar ke eksterior mulai dari grille, rear wing, dan saluran hisap di spoiler depan. Warna-warna yang tersedia, Ultimate Black Pearl (baru), Brilliant White, Red, Dark Metal Gray, Black. Kelengkapan lainnya adalah Aluminium wheels berdiameter 20inch, BOSE Sound System. Model ini bakal di rilis 8 Januari 2009 dengan harga mulai 15,750,000 yen diluar pajak.
Kenaikan daya maksimal 4kW memang tidak luarbiasa, apalagi banyak perusahaan afterkmarket tuning bisa mendulang lebih banyak power dari mesin GT-R. Namun kombinasi bobot ringan dengan suspensi baru membuat GT-R Spec V begitu kencang sehingga bisa lebih cepat dua detik dibandingkan GT-R regular ketika di uji di sirkuit Sendai Highland yang panjangnya 4km. Nissan belum merilis laptimes di sirkuit Nurburgring, namun diperkirakan akan memberi kejutan seperti yang dilakukan GT-R.
