It's official, there will be a 2010 Nissan GT-R Spec V and it will be sold in America. A Nissan source has confirmed that a lightweight, more powerful version of the new supercar is nearly complete and will arrive in America about a year after the GT-R hits U.S. dealers early next summer.

i prefer to have all the luxuries..................listening to classical music in my cardigan, doing 140km/h around the corner while giving the porcher/ferrari, lambo the fingers as I pass them.

I thought originally it was stated that there was going to be the standard model, a V spec model AND an Evo model (lighter and faster again - but only 2 seater) and each of them was going to be released a year appart?

A friend in Japan told me standard 480ps, V-Spec 500ps and Evo 550ps models would be released (in Japan at least).

If they're goin for specs that are similar to Porsche shouldn't it be:

911 - GT-R

911 Turbo - GT-R V Spec

911 GT3 - GT-R N1

seeing as N1 has traditionally been the stripped down racegoing version... just like the GT3, and the V Spec's been the souped up version of the base model... just like the Turbo?

I'd have thought the aim was for the V Spec to beat the 7:31 of the GT2 and then for the EVO to beat everyone.

Anyways.....

i'd have thought the N1 would compare more with the 911 GT2 instead of GT3. stripped down, more power. whereas the GT3 has less power than the turbo.

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
