Jotech Nissan GT-R delivers 1,400hp with carbon fibre body
Jotech’s latest Nissan GT-R build pushes output to 1,400hp, combining a heavily reworked 4.1-litre V6 with a full carbon fibre body kit and bespoke styling.
Jotech has revealed a Nissan GT-R build producing 1,400hp, achieved through extensive engine and bodywork modifications. The Texas-based tuner’s stage 6 upgrade transforms the R35 GT-R into a car with power figures more commonly associated with hypercars than Japanese performance coupes.
The heart of the conversion is a 4.1-litre V6, enlarged from the GT-R’s standard 3.8-litre unit and fitted with upgraded turbochargers. This setup delivers more than three times the original car’s power output, a figure that puts it in rare company even among tuned supercars. Jotech’s stage 6 package focuses on outright performance but also includes extensive changes to the car’s appearance and weight.
Carbon fibre body and chassis upgrades
A full carbon fibre body kit replaces much of the standard GT-R’s exterior, including the bonnet. The use of carbon fibre reduces weight and gives the car a more aggressive stance. The car sits lower than standard, and rides on forged 5.1 alloy wheels finished in black with red highlights. The matte grey paintwork, accented in red, is part of the overall visual package.
- Stage 6 engine build (4.1-litre displacement, uprated turbos)
- Full carbon fibre exterior package
- Lowered suspension setup
- Forged alloy wheels (5.1 design)
- Bespoke paint and accents
Cost and availability
Jotech prices the stage 6 kit at $95,000, not including the cost of the base GT-R. This places the finished car well above the price of most new supercars, but the power and specification are aimed at buyers seeking extreme performance and exclusivity. The company has not stated production numbers or whether further upgrades are planned.
