Nismo has developed the 2013 Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 using all the data obtained from these races, in addition to the dyno, track tests, and customer feedback, to enhance its competitiveness and performance.
Most significant improvements were made to the following:
- Engine performance and durability
- Aerodynamic performance
- Brake balance
- Suspension setting to suit new aerodynamics package
- Gear ratio to optimise engine output increase
