One of the nicer aspects about the Nissan’s GT-R ‘project’ is the fact that its development is an ongoing process, where highly-skilled Japanese ninja-engineers strive to make it the best car it can be, all the time. Now, they have announced that the car will receive a host of updates, which aim to improve engine responsiveness, as well as its ride and high-speed stability.
First to be improved is the car’s suspension setup, which will receive new dampers, springs and roll-bars for the front suspension as well cam bolts. The aim of all this is to achieve camber accuracy, and increase stability during hard cornering maneuvers, not that the car wasn’t already very good at it - it will now be even better. The cabin also gets reinforcements, in order to further increase body rigidity as well as improve suspension control.
The car’s twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V6 engine will get new injectors, as well as a new wastegate valve which reportedly better-suppresses the loss of boost. These two modifications are said to improve the responsiveness characteristics of the engine, while a new oil pan baffle aid in maintaining constant oil pressure, as well as reducing friction.
