Nissan GT-R

Nissan's hand-built, all-wheel-drive giant-killer: the R35 GT-R, the everyday supercar that ran from 2007 to 2025 and embarrassed cars costing several times as much. An honest owner's reference to the twin-turbo VR38DETT and its rear-mounted dual-clutch transaxle, covering the year-by-year changes, the exact service data and fluid specs, the transmission and brake trouble spots a buyer must check, and the deep specialist and tuning network that keeps these cars fast and reliable.
