Nissan earlier confirmed that the GT-R Track Pack will only roll out on right hand drive countries like the United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa, and Japan with the sales beginning this month. The Japanese car manufacturer might have changed its strategy but we recently learned that the Track Pack will also be available for the left hand drive Nissan GT-R markets and will start production by May this year.

This information was confirmed by a Nissan Europe manager thru a press interview saying that the Track Pack will hit the production line by May for left hand drive markets where the GT-R is already being sold except for Ukraine and Russia. The product manager also clarified that the Track Pack will not be initially available in North America, not for the 2013 MY.

The Track Pack actually targets drivers who want a more responsive GT-R. So this comes with features like a retuned suspension, lighweight alloy rims, and extra cooling setup for the brakes. It also comes with a 2-seater layout to be lighter on the scale.

The Track Pack also goes with a front spoiler that has an air duct fabricated from carbon and a pair of seats by Recaro sporting blue bolsters and the emblem of Track Pack on the center console.

The heart of this GT-R is still the V6 with twin-turbo that can give out 545 horsepower.

The suggested retail price for the Nissan GT-R starts at $84,060 which does not include any license fees and taxes. The current model is just $1,000 more expensive the the GT-R Premium 2010 model.

The second update of the GT-R since it was launched before the end of 2007 features reconfigured suspension and toughened rear bushes to improve the ride comfort.

The designers also installed improved cooling ducts to improve the overall cooling performance of the rear floor portion. The center caps of the wheels were also made slightly darker while the fascias for both ends of the car received a double clear coating.

The headlights now have an automatic on and off function. Other improvements like speed-sensitive wipers, iPod interface, NavWeather, and XM Navtraffic were installed.

Under the hood of the 2011 GT-R is the same 485 HP V6 3.8L engine coupled with a dual clutch transmission as the 2010 model year.

While previous GT-R models have been famous for its unlimited tuning potential, the 2009 GT-R models are designed for street driving, in compliance to the government policies laid out by the Tokyo government. In fact, the Japanese government strictly prohibits the use of modified cars in the streets; any modification of the GT-R would result to void warranties. The list of prohibitions includes the GT-R’s GPS-based speed limiter which limits the speed of Japanese cars to a maximum of 112 mph. This prohibition can be lifted if the GT-R is in an approved race track, subject to certain regulations.

Nevertheless, things are getting better for the Nissan GT-R. Car manufacturing companies have engaged into customizing GT-Rs for client specifications. The company Branew has come up with its own version of this car, bringing this new hot trend to a notch higher. And enthusiasts could not wait to see how this head-turner will wow spectators come the motor show.
