Yes, This is The New NISMO GT-R

Outrageous, 592bhp factory GT-R gets new suspension and more aero.

The pinnacle Nissan GT-R is back. Here’s the latest NISMO version. And it’s been crafted with the same obsessive attention to detail as ever.

It’s built on the new, stiffer 2017 standard GT-R body shell. But on top it gets freshly fettled suspension and new aero parts on every side, including the underside.

The whole new front end is carbon fibre – even the white-painted areas of the bumper. It’s the most precious kind of carbon, too, hand-laid so that it can be strong where needed and tissue-light elsewhere. Then it’s slowly autoclaved to harden.

The engine is as per last year’s NISMO, a 600PS (592bhp) version of the epic V6, codenamed VR38DETT. Detail freaks note, GT-R overlord Hiroshi Tamura says the Americans get the full 600bhp, but we have to be content with 600PS in Europe because that’s the limit for cooling on a long, hot flat-out Autobahn stretch. In the US they can’t go flat out so they get more power.
