The NISMO 400R (R short for racing) is a mid size coupe . It was built as a limited edition 99 piece to celebrate the triumph of the Nismo GT-R LM .

History

The car is based on a Nissan Skyline GT-R R33 V spec . The body has been fitted with a new body kit and the RB26DETT engine of the skyline has been completely redesigned. The pistons, connecting rods, crankshaft and intercooler have been replaced. On the cylinder head, the channels were polished. The liners of the crankcase were expanded to a capacity of 2771 cc. The RB26DETT now became an RB-X GT2which generates 294 kW (400 hp) at 6800 rpm and 478 Nm at 4400 rpm. 

The weight of the 400R increased to 1550 kg, 20 kg more than a GT-R R33 V-Spec. It sprints from 0-100 km / h in about 4.0 seconds and reaches a top speed of 320 km / h with a 5-speed gearbox. The regular clutch was replaced by a two-disc clutch from Nismo. The 400R has been lowered by 30 mm and the shock absorbers of the GT-R 33 have been replaced by sportier Bilstein dampers. In addition, the car received brake pads and brake discs from Nismo. In addition, it was fitted as standard with 18-inch Nismo LM / GT1 on 275 / 35ZR18er RE710kai tires. Inside the car, there are also some changes from the stock skyline, a leather steering wheel with airbag and striking "Nismo 400R" emblem, a gear knob made of titanium and Nismo sports seats.
