Nissan GT-R Club Sport by Nismo

When the first Nissan GT-R’s are being spotted in the wild we can expect tuners to release a package for this car. There’s one official package yet and now Nissan Motorsport International Limited or as we say NISMO created a Club Sport package for the R35 GT-R. Making a superb car even better is never an easy task, even not for the best tuners out there. That’s why Nismo concentrated themselves on making the GT-R less heavy and give it a better handling.
Important part of the package is the adaptable Bilstein Damptronic shock absorbers. This won’t give you more driving confort but will make you able of doing faster laps on circuits.

A new exhaustsystem will make the car another 5 kg (11 pounds) lighter. The seats get an upgrade aswell, if we can call it an upgrade is another question, but all electronics are out of the seats which gives you another weightreduction of 6 kg (13 pounds). Offcourse there has to be some less good news and you can probably guess that has something to do with the price: € 34.000 ($ 49.700 - £ 27.600). Second bad thing is that the package only will be available in Japan. These two things together will probably cause European and American owners to wait for the GT-R Vspec which should be presented at the Paris Motorshow next month!
