What is called GTR?
2 Answers
GTR refers to the Nissan GTR. Taking the 2017 Nissan GTR as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4715mm, width 1895mm, height 1371mm, wheelbase 2780mm, minimum ground clearance 110mm, fuel tank capacity 74L, luggage compartment capacity 315L, and curb weight 1785kg. The 2017 Nissan GTR is equipped with a 3.8T twin-turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 408kW and a maximum torque of 632Nm, paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. It adopts a front suspension type of double-wishbone independent suspension and a rear suspension type of multi-link independent suspension.
I've been repairing cars for twenty years, and the most frequently asked question by young people is about this Godzilla GTR. Originally Nissan's high-performance icon, it now specifically refers to that twin-door, four-wheel-drive supercar. What makes it remarkable is its ability to go toe-to-toe with cars three times its price, even intimidating 911 owners. Last year, I modified one for a client—stock 3.8L twin-turbo with 565 horsepower straight from the factory. The real magic lies in the ATTESA all-wheel-drive system and transmission; launching it feels like getting kicked in the back. The engine bay is packed with radiators, so it doesn’t need extra cooling after track runs. As for the rear seats... you’d struggle to fit a helmet back there.
