SAMURAI 1/18scale Nissan GT-R NISMO 2022 (Gray) [No.KSR18054GR]

NISMO is the master of R35 GT-R circuit racing. With a unique range of specifications on the 2022 model the Nissan GT-R Special Edition joins the already formidable GT-R line-up. Starting with the circuit-surface color of ‘NISMO Stealth Gray’ chosen by half of GT-R owners, other components including precision lightweight moving parts such as piston rings / valve springs / crank shafts / conrods etc. have been matched to the VR38DETT engine (with its special red colored ‘Takumi Plate’ on the front). Instead of standard paint, the engine hood is clear-painted in dry carbon to match the aluminum wheel rims with red lines for easy identification of the Limited Edition. The pre-release on 14 April 2022 was met with a rush of orders and when the price was announced on 5 August, the planned production volume of 300 units was fully sold and orders no longer accepted. The high level of interest brought the popularity of the GT-R to the attention of the wider world. The solid gray color scheme without pearlescence creates a formidable impression with even greater visual impact from the carbon parts and aerodynamic body of the R35 GT-R NISMO. The beautifully balanced engine runs smoothly all the way to the top with 50% lower tolerance. With a body and suspension that has been refined over 15 years, the intense yet mature ride of the GT-R ensures it will be cherished as a collectors model for many years to come.
