wow, nissan really did a very serious refresh for the GTR, if fact, refresh seems a bit of an understatment, can't wait for the ring times. I'm going to predict a 7:23.

Anyway, Matt, an early congrats on your new GTR from yours truely. I really hope that the base starts at under 90K though.

Now, if only Nissan would turn this kind of attention to the 370z....

the info we got said 7:2? so they did record a new time...its not sub 7:20 but i think it might suprise and be close to 7:20 even but we wont know until october

ArtVandaleigh · 08-26-2010, 09:48 PM

Wow I'm glad Nissan is continuing to seriously up the bar with this refresh. Some nice models and options available... I love that new blue color.

PapoZalsa · 08-26-2010, 11:02 PM

I wish I got that kind off money floating around for a GTR. I guess the Z will be with me for a whileeeee!!!

Demon Z · 08-27-2010, 01:22 AM

yes its true.. BUT as the moment when dont know what the limitations of that are... the mode is tied to the transmission switch which is now a "Normal" "R" and "Save" in stead of snow... the info we got says if you hold down save mode ( which is a fuel economy mode) for 4 secs you will get 2WD mode.. beyond that there isnt alot of info... i personally do not think it will be performance oriented meaning i dont think your going to be able to go and do burnout and drift to your hearts content... i think it has something to do with the fuel economy and or having to do with freeing the car from a situation... now with that said who know what can eventually be done with it... but until i read otherwise knowing all the drama nissan went through with the launch control.. i dont see this as a factory installed burnout button...

i know the new launch control is now at 4K rpm with the VDC on.. and the car launches at a 98/2% split anyway so not sure if they button comes in to play with that either...

More Power In Store for 2012, Spec-M Named for Japan Market: The Nissan GT-R EGOIST

Well we did mention that the SpecM name was tentative and today we’ve heard another rumor from sources close to Nissan that the R35 GT-R “Gentleman’s Edition” will launch in the Japanese market as the Nissan GT-R Egoist. While the name seems insane to us it’s not too far outside the bounds of Japanese naming schemes so that we’d completely rule it out.

The SpecM nameplate is likely to be kept in markets outside Japan however so don’t completely cross it off your wish list just yet…

On the topic of rumors from sources close to Nissan Japan, here’s another we’ve just heard. Those folks hopeful that 520ps is the new peak power figure for the 2012 GT-R might be surprised to learn they can expect to be dissapointed. After seeing this figure making its way around blogs and forums one might start quoting it as fact by now but to this date no figure has appeared either officially or leaked. In the true spirit of it not being over ’till the fat lady sings, we’re now told by our reliable sources that 530ps – 540ps is more accurate.
