Checking the exhaust finisher and rear bumper clearance Note 5
● Note 5: Clearance between the enlarged-diameter exhaust finisher and the rear bumper is realized by using
highly rigid exhaust mount rubber to control rear muffler vibration. The clearance between the exhaust finisher
and the rear bumper may alter as the exhaust mount rubber changes shape due to vibration, passage of time
and high exhaust temperature during high performance driving. Therefore, inspection of the clearance is
necessary during the GT-R special inspection and when engaging in performance driving.
Increase tightening of the strut support bar attachment section with the shock absorber Note 6
● Note 6: During the first GT-R special inspection (after 1,000 miles), the strut support bar attachment bracket
and shock absorber (each one on the left and right sides) must be tightened to the specified tightening
specification. The strut support bar attachment bracket and shock absorber (each one on the left and right
sides) must be tightened to the specified tightening specification 300-600 miles (500-1000 km) after the
support bar or shock absorber have been removed or installed.
These inspections are required at the following intervals: 1,000 miles, 12 months, 24 months and 36 months.
These inspections will be performed free of charge at a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer only. See your 2012
NISSAN GT-R Warranty Information Booklet for details.
After the period of GT-R performance optimization services in the first three years, these items are included in
the regular scheduled maintenance.
*Repairs and adjustments involving part replacement, etc. determined to be necessary as a result of these
inspections are performed at the customer’s expense.
*See your 2012 NISSAN GT-R Warranty Information Booklet for significant limitations, exclusions, and possible
voiding of warranty resulting from failure to have these necessary inspections, repairs and/or adjustments
performed.
