In fact, Bolt’s partnership with the Japanese brand includes his cooperation with Nissa

Dragtimesinfo has released a new crazy video featuring Lamborghini Gallardo UR Twin Turbo and Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12+. Both cars are sensational – the GT-R has 1500HP (around 1200WHP), while the Gallardo boasts 2000HP (1500 WHP). In other words, there is nothing faster on the public roads than these two vehicles. The Gallardo managed to stop the clock in acceleration between 200 and 300 km/h in 6.8 seconds.
The GT-R runs on Race Fuel VP Import 120 and the Gallardo is powered by Race Fue

Usually we know that the motorcycles are extremely fast and especially, when matched to ordinary cars. However, the highly tuned Nissan GT-R AMS Alpha 12+ is not an ordinary car and it manages to beat a lot of superfast bikes including this brand new Kawasaki ZX-14R, which also has minor upgrades.
The GT-R AMS Alpha 12+ is running on regular 93 octane gasoline, but still has more than 1000WHP (1200+ HP). It rolls Toyo 888R tires, which hardly can get any traction at low speeds.

Here is a nice video of an epic battle between several highly tuned vehicles - Porsche 911 Turbo Proto 1000 with 1100HP, Nissan GT-R Mk.1 Stage 2 with 560HP, Porsche 911 PP-Performance Stage 1 with 650HP and Porsche 911 Turbo 9ff with 900HP.
In the first start, the mighty Protomotive VRT1000 Porsche meets a lot underpowered Nissan GT-R Mk.1. The Porsche crosses the finish line at 1 mile with 256.04 km/h and 27.567 seconds time, while the GT-R finished in 31.757 seconds (without reaction times

This is a 1000 HP Switzer Nissan GT-R. It will be known as the Ultimate Street Edition but it won't be the most powerful product ever to come from the Oberlin, Ohio-based company. No, back in 2010 there came out another GT-R labeled R1KX that had 1000 and above WHP but it was essentially a track-happy sort of car and a nightmare in the real world. It had a tendency to overheat in traffic jams, to shift gears in a jerky manner, and a thirst for a racing-grade kind of fuel. The only practical use

You remember the Juke-R, don't you? The one that puts to shame some of the most established brands out there on a track. Well, now you can have one...presumably. Nissan are putting it on a very limited run. In fact, they will set their production policies for it, on an on-demand manner.
The first time we saw the Nissan Juke-R was on a track in Dubai, trashing Lmaborghinis, Ferarris and alike. Nissan say, that the ensued interest was “enormous”. So enormous in fact that they now have...ahem...

If anything can put a smile on the face of a hardcore track day enthusiast, it's going to be a Nissan GT-R. More so even if that GT-R happens to be a Track Pack edition. That's the latest to come out from Nissan and it is design to shed precious seconds on the racing track. At the same time, it still has to be able to take you home trough the public roads – tricky. Most importantly, all is made by people from Nissan with the blessing of the car's creator – Kazutoshi Mizuno.

Here is another very interesting video by Dragtimesinfo posted on Youtube. This time, the Sport, Leicht, Rennsport" McLaren Mercedes-Benz is coming against two slightly tuned sports cars – Nissan GT-R and Aston Martin DBS Mansory.
The SLR is powered by an all-aluminium supercharged SOHC 5.4 liter V8 engine delivering whopping – 626HP (460 kW) at 6500RPM and 780Nm (580 lb-ft) of torque at just 3250RPM. The engine runs on just 0.9 bar of boost. The engine is mated to a 5-speed automatic transmi

Nissan GT-Rs have always been a favorite for ambitious tuners. What we see here can only support that theory. It's a collaboration project between two companies – The American based PUR Wheels company and the Indonesian Premier Autowerkz... apparently. The whole project is rather obscure and not much information is available.
On what we can focus however, are those 3 piece “4OUR Depth“ PUR wheels they have fitted. Beautifully made 5 double spokes (that's one way of putting it). It's as if frag

Autocar.co.uk has released a test review of the strange Nissan Juke-R, which is claimed to be the ultimate crossover. Practically, the car is a GT-R with different body, because everything from the sports car is taken and put in the Juke.
The Juke-R is powered by a twin-turbo 3.8 liter V6 with 485HP (357 kW) at 6400RM and 588Nm (434 lb-ft) at 3200RPM. The engine is mated to a 6-speed dual-clutch gearbox enabling the car to accelerate to 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds and having a top speed of 2
