*1: Mobil 1 (0W-40) (100% synthetic) is the factory fill oil. The VR38 engine with its plasma-sprayed
bores was developed using this oil. NISSAN
cannot ensure proper engine operation and
durability if other 0W-40 synthetic oil is used.
If Mobil 1 (0W-40) is not available, Mobil 1
(10W-40) (100% synthetic) may be used;
however, some performance loss may be
noticed.
*2: Genuine NISSAN Brake Fluid R35 Special II is the factory fill brake fluid. The Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) unit and other related parts were
specially designed for this brake fluid and
NISSAN cannot ensure proper operation of the

RESET switch for more than 1 second.
NOTE:
When the battery is disconnected, the
memory for trips
&Aand&Bis erased,
and both return to zero.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates the engine speed in
revolutions per minute (rpm) . Do not rev the
engine into the red zone
*1.
NOTICE
When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear or reduce
engine speed. Operating the engine in
the red zone may cause serious engine
damage.
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine coolant tem-
perature.
The engine coolant temperature is within the
normal range when the gauge needle points
within the zone
*1shown in the illustration.
The engine coolant temperature varies with the
outside air temperature and driving conditions.

2-8Instruments and controls
NOTICE
If the gauge indicates engine coolant
temperature near the hot (H) end of the
normal range, reduce vehicle speed to
decrease temperature. If gauge is over
the normal range, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible. If the engine is
overheated, continued operation of the
vehicle may seriously damage the en-
gine. (
ªIf your vehicle overheatsº
page 6-8)
FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates the approximatefuel level
in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down hills.
The gauge needle returns to E (Empty) after the
ignition switch is pushed to the LOCK position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge
registers ªEº (Empty) .
The low fuel warning will be indicated on the
vehicle information display when the fuel tank is
getting low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient,
preferably before the gauge reaches ªEº. There
will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle reaches ªEº. (
ªLow
fuel warningº page 2-40)
The
indicates that the fuel-filler door is
located on the passenger's side of the vehicle.
(
ªFuel-filler doorº page 3-23)
NOTE:
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) may
come on. Refuel as soon as possible. After
a few driving trips, the
light should
turn off. If the light remains on after a few
driving trips, have the vehicle inspected by
a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.

TRANSMISSION POSITION INDICA-
TOR
The transmission position indicator indicates the
gear positions.
The indicator blinks if it is not possible to shift
the gear when in the
&Mposition.
1. Upshift indicator (green)
2. Upshift indicator (yellow)
3. Upshift indicator (red)
UPSHIFT INDICATOR
When the upshift indicator is set to on, the
indicators on the tachometer will illuminate to
help upshift at a constant engine speed from any
gear or to warn the driver of over-revving.
The upshift indicator operates only when the
shift lever is in the
&Mposition. This function
consists of two modes that can be selected on
the vehicle information display: AUTO setting
and MANUAL setting.
