This Nissan GT-R is the World's Fastest Drift Car


Nissan has set the Guinness World Records title for the fastest ever drift. The record was broken with a speed of 304.96  km/h and 30 degrees angle using a specially-tuned 2016 Nissan GT-R. Masato Kawabata, the Japanese drift champion and title holder for the Japanese drifting series, clinched the top spot from former record holder Jakub PrzygoÅ„ski of Poland. The record was set during a special event that took place at Fujairah International Airport, UAE.

First Drive: 2016 Nissan GT-R


The main problem with track events is that you’re given such limited seat time with any given vehicle that it doesn’t leave a lasting impression. The Nissan GT-R, as you probably guessed, is one big exception. My run with it was limited to just a handful of laps around the Gran Turismo-sounding Sodegaura Forest Raceway and a single hot lap with a professional NISMO race driver; yet it’s all that took to make me re-think if the laws of physics actually existed.

The 2020 Nissan GT-R NISMO Pushes the Performance Envelope Even More (w/ 11 Photos)


Nissan isn’t just going for a bit of nostalgia at the New York International Auto Show with its heritage-inspired 370Z 50th Anniversary and GT-R 50th Anniversary models, but they’re actually pushing the performance envelope even more. Case in point is the 2020 GT-R NISMO—which is the closest you can get to a road legal GT3 race car.

Yes, You Can Buy this P 60-Million Nissan GT-R


If the P 7-million Nissan GT-R and P 13-million GT-R NISMO are too ordinary for you, then you should consider the ultra-limited-edition GT-R50 by Italdesign. Shown already in prototype form, Nissan has confirmed that they’re now taking orders for the seven-digit supercar.

What Engine Does the Nissan GT-R Use in Super GT?


Everyone knows that the R35 Nissan GT-R is synonymous with its mind-blowing 3.8-liter VR38DETT twin-turbo V6 engine. Generating 570 horsepower and 633 Nm of torque in its 2017 guise, it eats more expensive super cars for breakfast. And though this engine is powerful and durable enough for motorsports use, did you know that Nissan doesn’t use this engine for its Super GT effort, at least in the top-tier GT500 class?

Nissan Updates GT-R, Closest Indicator to Philippine Market Model Yet


With the Nissan GT-R confirmed for a 2016 arrival in the Philippines, Nissan Motor Corporation has given “Godzilla” a timely update with a fresh new look and more power. The company calls it “the most significant change” to its exotic-eating sports car since its market introduction almost a decade ago; it becomes the most solid indicator to what the Philippine-spec would most likely be like.

Japan Now Has One of the Fastest Police Cars in Service


It might be in production for over a decade now, but the Nissan GT-R is still one of the world’s fastest sportscars. And while it’s sometimes associated with speedsters and hooligans, there’s one R35 that’s siding with the law. Would-be crooks in the Tochigi Prefecture should be shaking in their boots with the arrival of the prefecture’s first R35 GT-R police car.

Someone Transformed the Nissan GT-R into A 600-Horsepower Off-Road Rally Machine


If the Nissan GT-R isn’t special enough for you, why don’t you consider this one-of-one GT-R Offroad “Godzilla 2.0.” as its name implies, it’s a GT-R meant to go off-roading, clearly inspired by the African Safari rally cars of the 1980s and 1990s.

NISMO is Serious About Expanding Their Business


To the average person, Nissan isn’t regarded as a sporty brand. Outside the sub-culture of drifters, where Sylvias and Cefiros perform excellently, the lack of souped-up Sentras or Teanas plying the streets of Manila create a misconception that Nissan doesn’t have a strong motorsports heritage (as if riced-up cars are sporty). Boy, that thinking is so wrong. See, Nissan has been heavily invested in motorsports. Since the 1960s, the company operated the Oppama Works and Omori Works to serve the needs of its privateer and factory operations respectively.

A week ago, Nissan and Italdesign previewed the GT-R50 by Italdesign, a super-limited run supercar that commemorates the 50th anniversary of both the GT-R and Italdesign. It’s basically the brutally fast NISMO GT-R in a handcrafted Italian suit. And now, a few days before its global debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in the United Kingdom, Nissan has finally revealed just how many will be made and how much it’ll cost.
