as illustrated and
pull out the filter element
.
The filter element should not be cleaned
and reused. Replace it according to the
maintenance intervals. See the "9. Main-
tenance and schedules" section for main-
tenance intervals. When replacing the filter, wipe the inside of the air cleaner
housing and the cover with a damp cloth.

as possible, as the tire

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-

garding tires, refer to “Important
Tire Safety Information” (US) or
“Tire Safety Information” (Cana-
da) in the Warranty Information
Booklet.
. Always use tires of the specified
type, size, brand, construction
(bias, bias-belted, radial or run-
flat), and tread pattern on all four
wheels. Failure to do so may
result in a circumference differ-
ence between tires on the front
and rear axles which will cause
excessive tire wear and may da-
mage the transmission, transfer
case and differential gears.
Wheel balanceUnbalanced wheels may affect vehicle
handling and tire life. Even with regular
use, wheels can get out of balance.
Therefore, they should be balanced as
required.
Wheel balance service should be per-
formed with the wheels off the vehicle.
Spin balancing the rear wheels on the
vehicle could lead to mechanical damage.
For additional information regarding tires,
refer to “Important Tire Safety Informa-
tion” (US) or “Tire Safety Information” (Canada) in the Warranty Information
Booklet.

JACKING VEHICLE AND REMOVING
WHEELS
WARNING
.
Make sure the parking brake is
securely applied and the trans-
mission is shifted into the
position.
. Never change tires when the ve-
hicle is on a slope, ice or slippery
areas. This is hazardous.
. Never change tires if oncoming
traffic is close to your vehicle.
Wait for professional road assis-
tance.
Blocking wheelsPlace suitable blocks
at both the front
and back of the wheel diagonally oppo-
site the flat tire to prevent the vehicle
from moving when it is jacked up.

CAUTION
After using the tools, put them back
in their original places. An accident
may occur if you leave them in the
car unsecured.Jacking up the vehicle and re-
moving the tire
WARNING
.Never get under the vehicle while
it is supported only by the jack. If
it is necessary to work under the
vehicle, support it with safety
stands.
. Use the correct jack-up points.
Never use any other part of the
vehicle for jack support.
. Never jack up the vehicle more
than necessary.
. Never use blocks on or under the
jack.
. Do not start or run the engine
while vehicle is on the jack, as it
may cause the vehicle to move.
This is especially true for vehicles with limited slip differentials.
. Do not allow passengers to stay
in the vehicle while it is on the
jack.
Carefully read the caution label at-
tached to the jack body and the follow-
ing instructions.

in this section for 48 hours after tires
are installed on the wheels. The tire
may slip on the wheel if the vehicle is
driven in these conditions before 48
hours have passed. If the tire slips on
the wheel, the wheel/tire assembly
will be out of balance and will require
rebalancing.
BrakesThe information and specifications in
this section apply only when engaging
in performance driving.
.Check for the heat deterioration of the
brakes and parts around the brakes.
. It is recommended that you remove
air from the brake system after any of
the following:
— When engaging in high perfor-
mance driving for the first time
after purchasing a new vehicle.
— After replacing the brake fluid.
— When engaging in high perfor- mance driving for a sustained per-
iod of time. It is recommended that
bleeding the brake be performed
when the brake calipers are hot
(about 212°F (100°C)). Brake pad break-in procedure:
NISSAN recommends that a special brake
pad break-in procedure be performed
before engaging in performance driving.
It is recommended you contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer for details.
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS
AFTER DRIVINGThe information and specifications in
this section apply only when engaging
in performance driving.
NOTICE

driving, all fluid and other adjust-
ments should be returned to the
normal fluid specifications as shown
in the “8. Do-it-yourself” section of
this manual.FluidsThe information and specifications in
this section apply only when engaging
in performance driving.
.
Check the engine, transmission, differ-
ential and under the vehicle for oil and
coolant leaks. .
Check the fluid levels and adjust as
necessary using the specified fluid as
described under the conditions listed
in this section. (
“Recommended
fluids and maintenance interval” page
GTR-20) If you do not drive under the
conditions listed, refer to the “9. Main-
tenance and schedules” section of this
manual.
. When changing fluids, be sure to use
the specified fluids as described in this
