The Nissan GT-R SpecV is a limited production, high performance version of the Nissan GT-R. The SpecV is sold at just seven specially selected dealerships in Japan. Each of which is staffed by mechanics with special GT-R SpecV training and who are knowledgeable of racing circuit driving.

Powering the GT-R SpecV is a 3.8 litre, twin-turbocharged V6 similar to the one found in the standard GT-R, however the performance is enhanced with a new high gear boost control device, which momentarily increases boost of the engine's twin turbochargers for greater torque in the intermediate-to-high speed ranges to provide a more powerful feeling of acceleration, while also allowing the engine to operate at a lower speed for improved fuel economy. Other modifications include a titanium-coated exhaust system.

Visually the SpecV model is only subtly differentiated from the base GT-R. The modifications include two small air intakes integrated into the front splitter, a new tailpipe design, carbon fibre rear spoiler, and carbon fibre grille and brake ducts.

Inside the GT-R SpecV features a two seat layout instead of the 2+2 configuration found in the standard GT-R. The SpecV also features special Recaro carbon fiber bucket seats, while carbon fiber insets are located in the rear center storage box, instrument panel and other trim areas.

The GT-R SpecV is also equipped with lightweight, racing-style forged aluminum wheels and carbon-ceramic brakes. The lighter unsprung weight provided by the new wheels and brakes further enhance the already outstanding handling of the GT-R SpecV.
