Nissan Australia has recently announced that the top of the line 2017 GT-R Nismo is ready to join the rest of the range on the local market, the model coming with plenty of features over the entry- and mid-level variants.

Speaking of the Nismo top notch variant, this one is standing out from the crowd at the exterior with the forged aluminum 20-inch RAYS six-spoke alloy wheels, borrowed from the GT500 racer, adding as well a handful of new styling bits, like carbon fiber wings, more prominent front bumper bar as well as standout rear diffuser.
Mechanically, the 2017 Nissan GT-R Nismo is packed with the Nismo suspension system with Bilstein DampTronic dampers for improved stiffness, spot welding and adhesives which increase the car`s body rigidity, Brembo brakes with 390 mm and 380 mm front and rear full-floating discs, and drag coefficient of 0.26.
Inside, the cabin also welcomes you with exquisite materials and sporty features, like “Ergonomically sculpted” Recaro bucket seats with Alcantara and leather, three-spoke steering wheels in the same Alcantar, Nismo badges and gauges.
Other features also refer to the company`s up-to-date full touchscreen media interface with graphics from the Gran Turismo PlayStation game, satellite navigation with new apps, Bluetooth connectivity and more.
