Click above for a gallery of the HKS Nissan GT-R GT570.

Serious Nissan GT-R tuners aren't coming out of the woodwork - yet - but one of Japan's largest aftermarket firms has thrown its hat into the ring, and to good effect. HKS will begin offering its GT570 kit to consumers in Japan later this year (no word on U.S. distribution) and as it's name implies, output is getting close to the 600 hp mark. The package includes new wastegate actuators for the stock turbos and an electronic boost controller, along with aluminum intercooler piping, silicon hose couplers and straight pipes that replace the stock catalytic converters, reducing back pressure, but negating the GT-R's road-legal status.

All of those tweaks add up to a total of - you guessed it - 570 PS, or 562 hp and 540 lb.-ft. of torque at the wheels. Check the gallery below to see the dyno charts and a few shots of the wastegate and plumbing mods.

Won't matter when you can afford one and want to go faster.

deadghost · 09-04-2008, 11:30 PM

The epic begins

onehundredoctane · 09-05-2008, 05:45 AM

and they kept the condensers on it? wtf? Must not be a dedicated track car then.

Erjay1 · 09-05-2008, 08:10 AM

Wow. One day I will own a black or white one...hell, any color, even pink.

shmiddy · 09-05-2008, 08:29 AM

jesus more hp?!?!? lol

anyotherone · 09-05-2008, 09:25 AM

Not bad... should be able to possibly hit a 10.9 ET with those numbers, given what people are running with 440-480whp on the U.S. demo and production models.

I'm dead set on getting a GT-R, but I'm not paying the premium. In two years there will be plenty used ones on the market that people paid $80-100k for that they can't sell for half that. If I can pick a clean, very lightly used one up for $40-50k, well that's more like it.

Seeing simple mods like this potentially pick up decent Hp just makes me smile.

Some tuners in Hong Kong put that kit on, dynoed it, and ripped the car around the road for a little bit on this video:

Its a GT-R kit so you can be sure it'll cost as much as used 2007 350z.
