Avus Performance has unveiled a new range of styling and performance accessories for the Nissan GT-R.
Starting with a run-of-the-mill GT-R Black Edition, Avus added a matt black body vinyl adhesive foil (€2499), a coilover suspension (€1299) and 20-inch wheels (€999) outfitted with wheel spacers (€349).
While the exterior looks a little plain, the same thing can't be said about the engine. Equipped with a modified ECU (€1899) and a high performance exhaust system (€998), the twin-turbo 3.8-liter V6 produces 580 bhp and 700 Nm of torque. While no performance figures were given, the revised output is a huge increase from the standard car's 485 bhp and 588 Nm of torque.

AVUS PERFORMANCE-Nissan GTR - Batmobil Reloaded
The Nissan GT-R build as a sportscoupe and direct opponent of the Porsche Turbo was revealed at the Tokio Motor Show in 2007. As a direct successor of the Skyline GT-R R34 the bar has been laid high already. With only 480 examples for Europe the GT-R is one of those rare sports-cars.
For AVUS PERFORMANCE a Nissan GT-R Black Edition was the basis for a very ambitious project. Besides optical changes they also put the emphasis on more power. A new modified ECU and a special new exhaust pipe (2 cats and the middle silencer have been removed) help the GT-R up to an impressive 580bhp and 700 Nm of torque (stock 485bhp and 588Nm).
Visually you can only imagine the power the GT-R has. The matt black, the lowering via coilovers (stock adjustments for the dampers will be kept) and the black painted 20" wheels combined with wheel spacers sum up the package. Individually painted parts like the front bumper, the rear diffusor, air vents, tinted windows can be seen when taking a close look.
- matt black foliation - 2.499 Euro
- coilovers - 1.299 Euro
- modified ECU - 1.899 Euro
- exhaust pipe - 998 Euro
- painted 20" wheels - 999 Euro
- wheel spacers - 349 Euro
