Nismo has used data from the success of the 2012 Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 to create the 2013 model. The new model features enhancements to its brake balance, gear ratios, aerodynamics, suspension and the engine

2013 Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3

The 2012 Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 that debuted in March 2012 went on to win a number of races across the globe including the Super GT series (GT 300 class), Taikyu (GT3 class), British GT Championship and the GT Cup. 

Nissan’s motorsport division, Nismo, has used all the data from these races along with customer feedback as well as track and dyno tests to develop the 2013 Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3. 

The most significant enhancements to the model are on the car’s brake balance, gear ratios, aerodynamics, suspension and, of course, the engine for higher performance and durability. 

The engine has been given new camshaft timing, while all moving parts have been reinforced to maximise durability. There are new canards at the front, the front fender louvers have been enlarged and the position of the rear spoiler has been further optimised to improve aerodynamic balance between the front and rear as well as to increase downforce for overall enhanced aerodynamic performance. The reworked gear ratios complement the engine’s higher power output.

The engine can now generate 550PS of power or higher and 637Nm of torque or higher depending on the requirements and power caps of different FIA race series across the world.
