GTR-6GT-R Overview
performed when a GT-R certified technician
determines that this is the correct repair.
If the inside of the disc rotors are cold during the
winter and the surface becomes hot due to a
heavy force being applied repeatedly to the
brakes, cracks may occur near the coolant hole
on the surface of the disc rotor. Cracks may also
occur due to a heavy force being repeatedly
applied to the brakes during high performance
driving. In these cases it may be necessary to
replace the disc rotors or brake pads depending
on the condition of the crack. Contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer for replacement.
EXHAUST MUFFLER AND TRUNK
CARPET
Genuine GT-R special exhaust muffler and
trunk carpet.
Use only the genuine GT-R special exhaust
muffler and trunk carpet.
The GT-R exhaust system is designed to provide
the maximum vehicle performance and to
protect the vehicle from high exhaust gas
temperatures.
If non-genuine GT-R specification parts are
used it is possible that the muffler or other
exhaust system parts will deform and cause
damage to the underbody. Non-genuine GT-Rspecification parts can also affect vehicle
performance and possibly lead to turbocharger,
engine or power train related parts including
transmission, damage.
Also, do not remove the trunk carpet from the
vehicle for any reason. The carpet insulates the
vehicle interior from the heat of the muffler and
from the noise of the transmission.
EXTERIOR PARTS (spoiler, etc.)
Do not modify exterior parts.
The GT-R was developed using a special wind
tunnel to help make sure the vehicle is
aerodynamically balanced. Additionally, the wind
tunnel was used to help make sure cool air flows
to the brakes, radiator and other components.
Additions of non-genuine GT-R specific acces-
sory exterior parts can change the air flow over
and around the body. This can affect vehicle
balance and cooling of various systems.
For example, if the front bumper is modified,
there is a possibility that brake cooling perfor-
mance may be reduced due to the decrease of
the air flow to the brake system.
Use only GT-R special specification parts.
Front bumper
The shape of the bumper helps pull air into the
engine compartment through the front wheel
housing to cool the radiator and brakes. Instal-
ling an aftermarket bumper may affect the air
flow in the engine compartment and decrease
the brake and engine cooling performance. An
aftermarket bumper may also change vehicle
balance by reducing front down force.
Rear spoiler
Installing an aftermarket rear spoiler may change
the down force balance between front and rear
of the vehicle. This can affect the handling
characteristics of the vehicle and affect the
operation of the ABS and VDC systems.
NOTICE
Modifications to exterior parts may
affect engine and transmission cooling
performance which can increase the
temperature in the engine compart-
ment. This can affect the operation or
damage parts located in the engine
compartment.

2-44Instruments and controls
Your vehicle has two types of security systems,
as follows:
.Vehicle security system
. NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual and
audio alarm signals if someone opens the doors,
hood, or trunk lid when the system is armed. It is
not, however, a motion detection type system
that activates when a vehicle is moved or when a
vibration occurs.
The system helps deter vehicle theft but cannot
prevent it, nor can it prevent the theft of interior
or exterior vehicle components in all situations.
Always secure your vehicle even if parking for a
brief period. Never leave your Intelligent Key(s)
in the vehicle, and always lock it when un-
attended. Be aware of your surroundings, and
park in secure, well-lit areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protection,
such as component locks, identification markers,
and tracking systems, are available at auto
supply stores and specialty shops. Your GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer may also offer such
equipment. Check with your insurance company
to see if you may be eligible for discounts for
various theft protection features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows. The system can be armed even if the
windows are open.
2. Push the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK position.
3. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle.
4. Close all doors, hood and trunk. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with the
Intelligent Key, door handle request switch
or power door lock switch. The power door
lock switch should be operated while the
door is open, and then closed.
