Nissan has also improved intake efficiency, reduced airflow resistance including an enlarged air intake duct for the intercooler, and improved exhaust emissions efficiency and enhanced control. The feel of the 6-speed dual-clutch transmission has been refined with a strengthened design of the shift fork arm and a firmer fixing bearing for the flywheel housing.
Nissan says it has also returned the suspension and added a handmade dry carbon rear spoiler to the Nissan GT-R Black Edition model. Other upgraded touches include the addition of a new blue lighting treatment inside the tachometer ring and a RearView Monitor is now standard on all models.
The 2013 Nissan GT-R is will go on sale at select certified Nissan dealers in January 2012.
