being uninstalled from the
wheels, use equipment such as a
leverless automatic tire changer.
It is only possible to reuse the
tires when they have no cracks
and/or deformations on the bead
portion. However, if you use a
lever-type tire changer, cracks
and deformation may occur on
the bead portion of the tires
meaning that the tires cannot be
reused.
. Make sure the tire valve stem cap
is installed and that the valve
stem is tight. When installing the
cap, make sure to tighten the cap
by hand. If a tool is used to
tighten the cap, the cap may be
damaged.
WARNING
.The use of tires other than those
specified or the mixed use of tires
of different brands, construction
(bias, bias-belted, radial or run-
flat), or tread patterns can ad-
versely affect the ride, braking,
VDC system, handling, ground
clearance, body-to-tire clearance, tire chain clearance, speed-
ometer calibration, headlight
aim and bumper height. Some of
these effects may lead to acci-
dents and could result in serious
personal injury.
. If the wheels are changed for any
reason, always replace with
wheels which have the same off-
set dimension. Wheels of a differ-
ent off-set could cause prema-
ture tire wear, degrade vehicle
handling characteristics, affect
the VDC system and/or cause
interference with the brake discs.
Such interference can lead to
decreased braking efficiency
and/or early brake pad wear.
(
“Wheels and tires” page 10-
10)
. When a wheel is replaced, tire
pressure will not be indicated,
the TPMS will not function and
the low tire pressure warning
light will flash for approximately
1 minute and remain on after the
1 minute. It is recommended you
contact a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer as soon as possible for tire
replacement and/or system re-
setting. .
Replacing tires with those not
originally specified by NISSAN
could affect the proper operation
of the TPMS.
. The TPMS sensor may be da-
maged if it is not handled cor-
rectly. Be careful when handling
the TPMS sensor.
. When replacing the TPMS sensor,
the ID registration may be re-
quired. Contact a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer for ID registration.
. Do not use a valve stem cap that
is not specified by NISSAN. The
valve stem cap may become
stuck.
. Be sure that the valve stem caps
are correctly fitted. Otherwise the
valve may be clogged up with dirt
and cause a malfunction or loss
of pressure.
. Do not install a damaged or
deformed wheel or tire even if it
has been repaired. Such wheels
or tires could have structural
damage and could fail without
warning.
. Never use retread tires.
. For additional information re-

of each nut lightly
contacts the seat part
of the wheel
hole.
When replacing a front wheel, make
sure the hole in the wheel is aligned
with the pin on the brake disc rotor.
8. With the wheel nut wrench, tighten wheel nuts alternately and evenly in
the sequence illustrated (
,
,
,
,
)
until they are tight.
9. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tire touches the ground. Then, with the
wheel nut wrench, tighten the wheel
nuts securely in the sequence as
illustrated. Lower the vehicle comple-
tely.
WARNING
If the road wheels are hot, allow
them to cool sufficiently before tigh-
tening the wheel nuts. Otherwise, the
wheel nuts cannot be tightened to
specification.
NOTE:.
As soon as possible, tighten the
wheel nuts to the specified torque
with a torque wrench.

system. Note that while some fuel pumps
label MMT content, not all do, so you may
have to consult your gasoline retailer for
more details.Aftermarket fuel additives
NOTICE
NISSAN does not recommend the use
of any aftermarket fuel additives
(Example: fuel injector cleaner, in-
take valve deposit removers, etc.)
which are sold commercially. Many
of these additives intended for gum,
varnish or deposit removal may con-
tain active solvent or similar ingre-
dients that can be harmful to the fuel
system and engine.Octane rating tipsUsing unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating lower than recommended above
can cause persistent, heavy spark
knock. (Spark knock is a metallic rap-
ping noise.) If severe, this can lead to
engine damage. If you detect a persis-
tent heavy spark knock even when
using gasoline of the stated octane
rating, or if you hear steady spark knock
while holding a steady speed on levelroads, it is recommended you have a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer correct the
condition. Failure to correct the condi-
tion is misuse of the vehicle, for which
NISSAN is not responsible.
Incorrect ignition timing will result in
knocking, after-run or overheating. This
in turn may cause excessive fuel con-
sumption or damage to the engine. If any
of the above symptoms are encountered,
it is recommended you have your vehicle
checked at a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer
or other competent service facility.
However, now and then you may notice
light spark knock for a short time while
accelerating or driving up hills. This is
no cause for concern, because you get
the greatest fuel benefit when there is
light spark knock for a short time under
heavy engine load.
ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER RE-
COMMENDATION
Selecting the correct oilIt is essential to choose the correct grade,
quality, and viscosity engine oil to ensure
satisfactory engine life and performance.
(
“Capacities and recommended
fluids/lubricants” page 10-2)
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 non-equivalent synthetic oil
is used. If Mobil 1 (0W-40) or equivalent is
not available, Mobil 1 (10W-40) (100%
synthetic) or equivalent may be used;
however, some performance loss may
be noticed.
NOTICE
Using an engine oil other than that
specified could adversely affect the
engine. See the 2021 NISSAN GT-R
Warranty Information Booklet for
details and exclusions.Oil additivesNISSAN does not recommend the use of
oil additives. The use of an oil additive is
not necessary when the proper oil type is
used and maintenance intervals are fol-
lowed.
Oil which may contain foreign matter or
has been previously used should not be
used.

NOTICE
.When the temperature of the
engine coolant and transmission
oil is high or low, the function
cannot be used. The temperature
range in which the R mode start
function can be used:
— Engine coolant: 140°F - 212°F
(60°C - 100°C)
— Transmission oil: 140°F - 266°F (60°C - 130°C)
. If the R mode start function is
used 4 times consecutively, the
function may be disabled and
cannot be turned on to protect
the vehicle system. While the function is disabled, the warning
light illuminates. When the warn-
ing light illuminates, perform cool
down driving. (
“Cool down”
page GTR-14) When the warning
light turns off, the function can be
used again.
. The performance of start may
vary depending on the amount
of wheel spin ,or increase and
decrease of the engine output in
response to the outside tempera-
ture. (This vehicle was set up
according to the road surface
conditions of the straight sec-
tions of the Sendai Highland Ra-
ceway course in Japan at 59°F
(15°C).)
. For safety reasons, VDC control
may activate automatically when
driving on a slippery road surface,
such as a wet road, in order to
apply the brakes or limit the
engine output.
. Frequent use of the R mode start
function increases the load on
the powertrain related parts such
as the clutch and transmission
compared to normal driving. In
particular, the clutch will wear out
