This car is the 2009 and for it modified takes some guts and therefore we would to assume some serious investment in time and parts. This is because it is very hard to improve on something that is already almost perfect in every respect and for many fast car fans; this is one of the cars that heads up the dream car list.
The standard off the production line car comes with a serious 3.8 litre DOHC V6 engine, with two parallel Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries (IHI) turbochargers that provide forced induction, giving the car a serious 474 HP and a maximum top speed of around 193 mph. The only downside would be the $80,000 price tag.
The modified version of the car, has some subtle changes that have been designed to produce a more efficient drive with an increase in power from the same factory fitted engine and turbos, coupled with a transmission that offers three modes, normal, for maximum smoothness, snow, good for shifting on slippery surfaces, and r mode, with fastest shifts.
Here are the specs and features of the Nissan GTR in white:

Here are specs and features of the Wiseco NISSAN RB30 GTR DISH 8700XX Single Piston:
Valve pocket designs allow maximum flow around the valve, allowing the use of oversized valves and high lift cams. Piston crown shapes are designed to promote the maximum intake charge efficiency through a scavenging mixture Cross Flow during intake and exhaust valve overlap. More fuel and air equals more horsepower. Piston domes are designed for optimal quench during the compression/ combustion cycle, resulting in resistance to detonation and pre-ignition. The end product is longer engine life and increased horsepower potential. Precision machined ring grooves with proper orifice/ accumulator volume feature calculated groove root diameters and axial widths, providing excellent surface finish and flatness, maximum ring seal, and minimized blow-by and oil consumption. Gas ports (vertical & horizontal)
