Full Carbon Nissan GT-R with 600HP+ by Original Runduce

Japan's Original Runduce had came out a new tuning proposal for the Nissan GT-R R35. The full carbon-fiber bodied GT-R will come with an overly aggressive aero kit bundling wider front and rear fenders, a new hood with several air vents and a larger rear wing plus different alloy wheels just to mention a few of the upgrades.

Original Runduce is keeping most details secret for the time being, but the Japanese tuning firm did reveal that the pumped up GT-R R35 will benefit from numerous engine mods that will lift output to over 600 horsepower.

The finished Nissan GT-R R35 is expected to make its debut at next month's "Tokyo Auto Salon 2010" in Japan.

2011 Nissan GTR Facelift European Spec

Recently, Nissan has announced the release of the European-spec version of the car that boasts a bevy of minor updates, chiefly under the skin. Starting with the suspension, Nissan's engineers changed the front spring and damper rates for better ride comfort, and increased the stiffness of the suspension radius rod bushings at the rear to improve feel and responsiveness during cornering.

Nissan said that it has also altered the logic controlling torque distribution between the front and rear axles when the GT-R is maneuvering at low speeds to reduce rear-axle 'binding'.

The logic in the gearbox has been changed to give a later downshift from 6th to 5th when the car is being driven in automatic mode, but a more aggressive downshift pattern is adopted when the driver changes from 4th to 3rd, and from 3rd to 2nd gear.

Another improvement for the 2011 MY GT-R is the addition of two NACA cooling ducts to the carbon fibre underfloor diffuser for extra cooling to the exhaust and gearbox while a new, larger diameter pipe connecting the oil cooler promises to reduce gearbox temperatures.

The list of changes also includes a stiffened front transmission mount to reduce vibration through the driveline under high-load conditions.

Furthermore, the balance of the electonic brakeforce distribution bias has been moved slightly rearwards which Nissan says gives greater braking stability in dry conditions. A change in design of the rear brake cross spring is said to reduce noise while a modified air deflector increases rear brake cooling.

Nissan also claims that changes to the emissions system now ensure that the GT-R is Euro 5 compliant, without any loss of output or performance, with CO2 emissions having dropped by 3g to 295g/km.

The Japanese automaker has also fitted uprated insulation to the rear seats to improve improving cabin refinement.

The only visual upgrades for the 2011MY GT-R concern the front and rear bumpers that benefit from a double coat, giving a deeper color finish, while inside, the speedometer and rev counter now sport gun metallic finish surrounds. Finally, the new model year GT-Rs are equipped with Nissan's next generation audio and navigation system that features 40GB of memory space.

Nissan GT-R: Dry Carbon Fiber Wide Front Fenders

Password:JDM has released a wide carbon fiber fender for the Nissan GTR35. The main reason was to be able to fit the GT-R with wider tires up front in order to eliminate understeer, especially in those cars with performance upgrades. It goes without saying that there's no way of proving the company's claims unless you actually drive a GT-R fitted with the dry carbon fiber fenders that extend the car's width by a full 38mm or 1.5 inches.

Password:JDM says that the wider fenders that feature deeper air-outlets are designed to accommodate a 20×11 wheel shod in 315/30/20 Toyo R888 rubber which are the widest tires available for the rear-axle of the factory model.
