Vorsteiner will offer its Ventross Nissan GT-R from the 1st of June 2009. While this may be so, the tuned car will not be mass-produced so to speak. The components will be made to order for GT-R customers who want them. Ventross hopes this approach will ensure optimal fitment and the highest quality for each piece installed.
The package is an exterior aerodynamic one and consists of two components. The first one is the front fascia. It incorporates enlarged carbon fiber air intakes for the radiators. It also includes an extra source of cooling air for the brakes in the form of side louver openings. An aggressive front spoiler completes the look. Carbon fiber was used to construct the whole front end. This is a special proprietary dry carbon fiber made by Vorsteiner themselves using vacuum technology which minimises weight and maximises strength.
The second new component is the rear diffuser which is made of the same Vorsteiner carbon fiber. Ventross replaced the plastic factory unit with a carbon fiber version which has three integrated diffuser fins. The fins have central heat extraction vents that help to cool the exhaust system.
There are no performance figures available but it can be assumed that with better cooling and a more focussed diffuser the Ventross GT-R will outperform its standard counterpart, a car that makes 353kW (480hp) and does 0 - 100km/h in 3.6 seconds.

The Ventross Nissan GT-R features the same high quality aerodynamics engineering and construction expected from parent company Vorsteiner. The carbon fiber aero components for the Nissan GT-R is slated for market release on June 1st , 2009.
The GTR exterior aerodynamic package consists of two components:
Front Fascia
Ventross has created a new replacement front fascia that incorporates enlarged carbon fiber air intakes for the radiators and includes additional side louver openings that feed air to the brakes through the front fender lining slats. The fascia is completed with an aggressive front spoiler that attaches to the factory under tray optimal fitment strength. The entire front fascia is constructed from dry carbon fiber using Vorsteiner's proprietary dry carbon fiber vacuum technology which maximizes strength while significantly reducing overall weight.
Rear Diffuser
The GT-R rear diffuser has been redesigned to replace the factory plastic version with a more aggressive dry carbon fiber piece that houses 3 integrated diffuser fins with central heat extraction vents to aid in cooling the exhaust system. Like the Ventross GT-R front fascia, the rear diffuser is constructed using Vorsteiner's proprietary dry carbon fiber vacuum technology.
Due to the exceptionally intensive and high quality hand-made process and complexity of the pieces each set will be made to order per GT-R owner rather than mass produced. This is another step Ventross is taking to ensure optimal fitment and quality of work per piece.
