Nissan GT-R NISMO

The Nissan GT-R NISMO is a high performance version of the Nissan GT-R (R35), made by Nissan and it first appears in Asphalt 8: Airborne. The Nissan GT-R NISMO is used as the 2012 facelifted model.

Overview
The Nissan GT-R NISMO is an upgraded version of the Nissan GT-R (R35). The GT-R NISMO also features a new grille (it is actually based off the 2012 facelifted GT-R) and different rear wing, as well as a twin-turbocharged V6 engine producing 608 PS (600 bhp). Front and rear brake cooling ducts are also added and the total car has a weight reduction of 38 lbs compares to the GT-R (R35).

Added in the Dubai update, the Nissan GT-R NISMO, being a high-end Class A car, has a starting rank of 1459 and a maximum rank of 1619, the same as that of the Savage Rivale GTR. It is the most powerful Japanese car in the game as well. With all levels of Pro Kits activated, the GT-R NISMO has a final rank of 1701, shared with the Savage Rivale GTR and Pagani Huayra. Improvements over the R35 feature a faster acceleration, higher top speed, and slightly better handling. The GT-R NISMO has slightly better handling than the R35, but still not as good as that of the Nissan 370Z (1.220 Gs~1.320 Gs). So, it's best to exercise caution when using this car in particularly difficult tracks like Monaco and Dubai. The nitro boost and duration are the same as those of the Lamborghini Veneno, Savage Rivale Roadyacht GTS, and Ferrari 330 P4.

Before the release of the Nissan GT-R NISMO for purchase in the Garage, the Nissan GT-R NISMO was exclusive to the top spot in each 5000-player division of the Nissan GT-R NISMO DIVISION CUP.

The Nissan GT-R NISMO costs to purchase  and  to max out, same as the Tramontana XTR.

As of the San Diego Harbor update, the Nissan GT-R NISMO qualifies for three events in the game, all of which are Classic events:
 * Race 9 of Season 3 — A Nissan-only event, set in London. However, as there is a very high chance that you are unable to afford the Nissan GT-R NISMO early in the game, it is best to use the Nissan GT-R (R35) instead.
 * Race 40 of Season 8 — The Nissan GT-R NISMO's own event, set in San Diego Harbor. This event has the following Bonus Stars:
 * Perfect Nitro Triggered: 15.
 * Knockdowns without Wreck: 2.
 * Race 72 of Season 9 — A single-lap Classic event set in Iceland. This event requires a maxed out Nissan GT-R NISMO in order to participate.
