The 545 hp, twin-turbocharged Nissan GT-R has quickly established itself as one of the most incredible street machines on the planet. The GT-R Nismo GT3 shares the same engine with its street legal sibling, but has been built exclusively for FIA GT3 competition by the Nismo motorsport arm of Nissan. In place of creature comforts like adjustable leather seats and air conditioning are lightweight carbon fiber door panels, a roll cage and racing harness. Aerodynamic enhancements like a front splitter, flat floor and adjustable rear wing add extra downforce at high speeds. It all adds up to a world-class racing machine that can go toe-to-toe with Europe’s best and win.
