Best Mods for the Nissan GT-R R35

The R35 GT-R is a software-and-fuel car: the VR38 twin-turbo V6 responds massively to a tune and better breathing, and the drivetrain can take far more than stock. The real limits are traction, cooling and how brave you are with the launch.

Where to start

A tune with the fuelling and cooling to support it is the honest first move. The gearbox and clutches are strong, but heat management is what keeps a fast R35 alive.
