Couple days ago we talked about this Nissan GT-R Nismo at this year’s Tokyo Auto Salon here. Thanks to speed hungry friends at nismo for revealing this info. This machine is built for tangoing in the world’s most brutal endurance races, and the engineers behind it took the time to rip out every last unnecessary bit of weight and install all the hardware it needs to go fender to fender with other race-bred bruisers. That includes a set of stoppers capable of bringing the globe to a halt, a full roll cage and a more menacing suspension.
There’s even an on-board jack system and a huge 31.67-gallon fuel tank on-board to minimize time in the pits and maximize the number of seconds that the car can stay out on track. Nismo calls this terror the GT-R RC for Racing Competition, and if you like what you see, you better call your CPA. Nissan says that the race-bred GT-R will command a ¥20,790,000 price tag when it goes on sale a shave over $250,000 at current exchange rates. More photos for you all. Enjoy!
