Click the image above for more shots of the rumored Nissan GT-R V-Spec.

Shots of a track-modified Nissan GT-R have been making the rounds on the web and they may foretell the future revival of a V-Spec version of Godzilla.

The bare-bones GT-R is sporting a full roll cage, a modified front bumper to decrease engine temps and a lower ride height that drops the coupe over a set of Volk TE-37s on track-friendly rubber.

The rumors we've heard peg the V-Spec coming to market sometime in 2009, but precisely what modifications will be made is still up in the air.

Can't wait to hear more about this.

I "heard" it was gonna have a V8 instead of the TTV6. I don't know how realistic that seems but it's a nice thought. We shall see...

90KAcoupe · 12-05-2007, 11:05 PM

i dont see them producing this car..... im sorry but the interior is to stripped. i think anybody that would want the car that stripped would probably spend the money on something a little better.....

but then again alot of people around this area are buying up the Nismo Z (the base model car with crap sound system, cloth seats and no lux..) but we'll see.

mayco_86 · 12-05-2007, 11:08 PM

That car is so sexy. One of these days I will have it even if i get it in 30 years. lol

Paul2x · 01-07-2008, 12:21 PM

Not V-spec version.

More like a out the box Production race car like Porsche Cup CAr

For Super Taikyu series in Japan.

very sweet IMO

azndoc · 01-07-2008, 12:29 PM

^^^ true that.

There are some people I'm sure who are willing to pay for something that is more "track" friendly.

Without all of the misc. mumble jumbo shit that brings luxury to cars.

I couldn't see Nissan not using the new tt v6 in the vspec. Either way it should be an amazing car and Hopefully I'll be able to pick up a nice used one down the line.

s14DK · 01-07-2008, 11:35 PM

V8 won't happen unless one of the crazy shops like TS does something custom.

I think the new GTR motor is incredible

drift freaq · 01-08-2008, 12:31 AM

Just sick pure sick. LOL I love it.

*S13Boosts* · 01-08-2008, 02:40 AM

Super weak offset though. And are they still 20"? I think it would look better with 19" wheels.

The front reminds me of a squid or something.

I'd drive it.

let5l1de · 01-11-2008, 05:14 PM

the offset isnt as good as it should be... more than that, i would hope to see some aggressively tuned suspension on that mean m-f-er...
