2010 Nissan GT-R Updates Confirmed, Spec-M Hints Revealed

The Spec-V’s rear diffuser will feature, along with new side intakes, suspension improvements, and the option to include a NISMO data-logging tool for analysing and sharing driving data.

Mizuno said that marginally stiffer front spring and damper rates, along with stiffer bushing for the rear torsion control arms will make up the majority of the minor suspension upgrades.

The rear diffuser of the Spec-V will migrate to the regular GT-R, joining new vents aft of the rear wheels, for improved airflow and brake cooling.

Basic engine tweaks include improved compatibility with the Euro 5 emissions regulations, and an ECU modification to provide improved low temperature, low speed tractability while the transmission fluid is still cold.
