Nissan is effecting a few alterations to the GT-R for its 2009 model.

Shortly it will already be two years since the GT-R opened a market in Japan and these adjustments will profit that market primarily. The 2009 model is being called as the Series II.

It gets a power enhancement of 5 hp to 485 hp / 357kW, the white point paint has been changed to Storm White, Brembo brake calipers are now marked as Nissan instead of Brembo, and the front license plate base has been detached and the fuel tank capacity increased from 71 liters to 73.8 liters. Fuel efficiency consequently goes up from 8.2 km/L to 8.5km/L. The bad news is that the vehicle itself has a 5 percent price mark-up.

Will it still void the warranty if you turn the traction control off?

You won't be able to recoup that 5% markup based on fuel savings, so why bother spending the extra?

i love this car and have a lot of respect for what nissan has accomplished, but after reading that you void the warranty by driving hard, i would stay away from this car.

i had an e46 m3 for 3 years, drove the car " like it was stolen" ( as nypd said when they pulled me over once) and the only problems i ever had on the car was i went through rear tires every 2 months...... no transmission or engine probs, not even a single damn sensor !!
