Nissan has released full details on the 2014 GT-R for the US market. For the next model year, the supercar will continue to offer buyers a twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V6, though final output has been upped by 15 ponies to 545 horsepower. Much of that jump comes courtesy of a new intake and optimized exhaust for an engine that breathes easier than before. Engineers claim to have made substantial revisions to the chassis to increase rigidity, and the 2014 GT-R now boasts revised high-rpm throttle response courtesy of a new set of fuel injectors.
The Nissan GT-R will keep its six-speed dual-clutch transmission for 2014, though the suspension has received a minor touch up to improve high-speed handling. Expect to find a new anti-roll bar up front as well as revised spring and damper rates on all four corners. Tires and brakes remain unchanged for the new model year.
Meanwhile, a new Premium Interior Package offers buyers a Red Amber semi-aniline leather seat package with hand stitching. The Black Edition will also hang around for 2014. Feel free to check out the full press release below for more information.Continue reading Nissan releases details of US-spec 2014 GT-R
