GTR-6GT-R Overview
certified technician must inspect the vehicle and
determine that only the brake pads need to be
replaced. In this case, replacing all brake pads
and disc rotors as a set is not necessary.
Note that the replacement of brake pads and the
disc rotors as a set on all four wheels should be
performed when a GT-R certified technician
determines that this is the correct repair.
If the inside of the disc rotors are cold during the
winter and the surface becomes hot due to a
heavy force being applied repeatedly to the
brakes, cracks may occur near the coolant hole
on the surface of the disc rotor. Cracks may also
occur due to a heavy force being repeatedly
applied to the brakes during high performance
driving. In these cases it may be necessary to
replace the disc rotors or brake pads depending
on the condition of the crack. Contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer for replacement.
EXHAUST MUFFLER AND TRUNK
CARPET
GUID-1B39712B-DA1F-4D3B-8E15-D5736CDB9A92The GT-R exhaust system is designed to provide
the maximum vehicle performance and to
protect the vehicle from high exhaust gas
temperatures.
If non-genuine GT-R exhaust system parts are
used it is possible that the muffler or other
exhaust system parts will deform and causedamage to the underbody. Non-genuine GT-R
exhaust system parts can also affect vehicle
performance and possibly lead to turbocharger,
engine or power train related parts including
transmission, damage.
Also, do not remove the trunk carpet from the
vehicle for any reason. The carpet insulates the
vehicle interior from the heat of the muffler and
from the noise of the transmission.
TITANIUM MUFFLER AND TRUNK
CARPET (if so equipped)
GUID-EF38B38B-3ECD-4D0A-82F0-C813AA77D0B1If a non-genuine titanium muffler is used, the
muffler may become deformed and damage the
underbody due to the high performance engine
reaching high exhaust gas temperatures
(1,8328F (1,0008C) or more) . The highest-class
titanium alloy is used for genuine parts to ensure
the resistance strength and creeping character-
istics against high exhaust gas temperature. In
addition, further cooling effects are secured by
taking in air through the duct on the undercover,
to cool the area around the muffler, and by
applying partial plate thickness reduction. Since
genuine titanium mufflers are made of titanium
alloy, the surface color will change depending on
the driving conditions, which is not unusual.
Prior to shipping from factory, all vehicles
receive balance aligning for engine, transmis-
sion, and clutch, as well as quench driving of
brake pads and rotors. As a result, the muffler
surface color may differ depending on the
vehicle.
Never remove the trunk carpet from the vehicle
for any reason. The carpet insulates the vehicle
interior from the heat of the muffler and from the
noise of the transmission.
Never Allow Oil or Grease to Adhere to the
Titanium Muffler.
If the muffler is heated when oil or grease adhere
to the muffler surface, the color of this area will
be different from that of the surrounding area. To
remove the oil or grease, check that the surface
temperature of the muffler has cooled, wash the
area with a neutral detergent, wipe it with a
brake cleaner-sprayed clean shop cloth and
gently tap it with a dry shop cloth to dry. Be
careful not to allow the brake cleaner to splatter
on rubber parts, bumper, etc.

GTR-16GT-R Overview
Wheels and tiresGUID-4DFCB043-2E7B-4A61-BEEF-3F105B41DC54The information and specifications in this
section apply only when engaging in
performance driving.
.Check tire wear and cracking.
. Inspect the tire side wall for damage.
. Check the tire pressure and adjust the
pressure as necessary when the tires are
cold. (
ªWheels and tiresº page 8-32)
The tire pressure changes depending on the
outside temperature or altitude. Check the tire
pressure regularly and when the climate condi-
tions change.
* The following chart indicates how the tire
pressure will decrease as outside air tempera-
ture decreases.
SSI0696
WARNING
Keep your tires inflated to the correct
tire pressure. Driving with low tire
pressure can damage some powertrain
systems and affect the operation of the
ABS and VDC systems. Low Tire pres-
sure may also cause tire failure and
result in serious personal injury or
death.
. Make sure the tire valve stem cap is installed
and that the valve stem is tight. When
installing the cap, make sure to tighten the cap by hand. If a tool is used to tighten the
cap, the cap may be damaged.
. Make sure the wheel nuts are tight.
(
ªWheels and tiresº page 8-32)
. Make sure the drive shaft nuts are tight.
. Make sure to replace the grommet seal, the
valve core and the valve cap of the Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor
attached to the wheel every 3 years for
performance driving use. Replace them
every 5 years even when not engaging in
performance driving. A dirty grommet seal
will cause the air leak from the tire.
. Make sure that the nuts and valves that are
attached to the TPMS sensor are tight and
there is no nitrogen leak.
. Use only a NISSAN genuine valve cap or
equivalent.
. Check wheel hub run out and that the wheel
rotates smoothly without any friction. Check
these with the tires removed whenever an
inspection is performed with the vehicle
jacked up.
. Secure road wheel balance weights with
aluminum tape.
. Check that the wheel nuts are not stripped.

WARNING
.Do not ride in a moving vehicle
when the seatback is reclined. This
can be dangerous. The shoulder belt
will not be against your body. In an
accident, you could be thrown into it
and receive neck or other serious
injuries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious
internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit well back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat properly.
(ªPrecautions on seat belt
usageº page 1-6)
. After adjustment, gently rock in the
seat to make sure it is securely
locked.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents. .
To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of
the vehicle and/or its systems, do
not leave children, people who re-
quire the assistance of others or
pets unattended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature inside
a closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or
death to people and pets.
. The seatback should not be reclined
any more than needed for comfort.
Seat belts are most effective when
the passenger sits with their back
straight up and contacting the seat.
If the seatback is reclined, the risk
of sliding under the lap belt and
being injured is increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be
sure not to contact any moving parts to
avoid possible injuries or damage.

.Be sure the seat belt tongue is
securely fastened to the proper
buckle.
. Do not wear the seat belt inside out
or twisted. Doing so may reduce its
effectiveness.
. Do not allow more than one person
to use the same seat belt.
. Never carry more people in the
vehicle than there are seat belts.
. If the seat belt warning light glows
continuously while the ignition is
turned ON with all doors closed and
all seat belts fastened, it may in-
dicate a malfunction in the system.
It is recommended you have the
system checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
. No changes should be made to the
seat belt system. For example, do
not modify the seat belt, add mate-
rial, or install devices that may
change the seat belt routing or
tension. Doing so may affect the
operation of the seat belt system.
Modifying or tampering with the
seat belt system may result in
serious personal injury. .
Once a seat belt pretensioner has
activated, it cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with the
retractor. It is recommended you
see a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
. Removal and installation of the
pretensioner system components
should be done by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
. All seat belt assemblies, including
retractors and attaching hardware,
should be inspected after any colli-
sion by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer. NISSAN recommends that
all seat belt assemblies in use
during a collision be replaced un-
less the collision was minor and the
belts show no damage and continue
to operate properly. Seat belt as-
semblies not in use during a colli-
sion should also be inspected and
replaced if either damage or impro-
per operation is noted.
. All child restraints and attaching
hardware should be inspected after
any collision. Always follow the
restraint manufacturer's inspection
instructions and replacement re- commendations. The child restraints
should be replaced if they are
damaged.

of movement in the seat. The ELR locks the seat
belt when the vehicle slows down rapidly or
during impacts.
The Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode or
child restraint mode locks the seat belt for child
restraint installation.
When the ALR mode is activated the seat belt
cannot be extended again until the seat belt
tongue is detached from the buckle and fully
retracted. The seat belt returns to the ELR mode
after the seat belt is fully retracted.
(
ªChild restraintsº page 1-16)
The ALR mode should be used only for
child restraint installation. During normal
seat belt use by an occupant, the ALR
mode should not be activated. If it is
activated it may cause uncomfortable seat
belt tension. It can also change the opera-
tion of the front passenger air bag.
(
ªFront passenger air bag and status
lightº page 1-41)
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be
certain that seatbacks are completely
secured in the latched position. If they
are not completely secured, passengers
may be injured in an accident or sudden
stop.

Checking seat belt operationGUID-5FF210C6-685D-44A7-93DA-171DBA4167B9Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat
belt movement by two separate methods:
.When the belt is pulled quickly from the
retractor.
. When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the seat belts,
check the operation as follows:
. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull forward
quickly. The retractor should lock and
restrict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during this check or
if you have any question about seat belt
operation, see a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.
GPC0048
Shoulder belt arm (for front seats)GUID-E951CA27-1FF9-4060-BDAF-5F9EA3342F3DBefore fastening the seat belt, adjust the
shoulder belt arm to the lock position where
the belt fits snugly on the shoulder. The arm can
also be folded down to allow rear seat
passengers easier access.
Pulling the arm forward will allow an easy access
to the belt.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERSGUID-2B114D8F-5D08-4666-8ACB-2253E777761DIf, because of body size or driving position, it is
not possible to properly fit the lap-shoulder belt
and fasten it, an extender that is compatible with
the installed seat belts is available that can be
purchased. The extender adds approximately 8
in (200 mm) of length and may be used for either
the driver or front passenger seating position. It
is recommended you see a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer for assistance with purchasing
an extender if an extender is required.
WARNING
. Only NISSAN seat belt extenders,
made by the same company which
made the original equipment seat
belts, should be used with the
NISSAN seat belts.
. Adults and children who can use the
standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use
could result in serious personal
injury in the event of an accident.
. Never use seat belt extenders to
install child restraints. If the child
restraint is not secured properly, the
child could be seriously injured in a

1-14Safety Ð Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require the use of approved child
restraints for infants and small children.
(
ªChild restraintsº page 1-16)
A child restraint may be secured in the vehicle
by using either the LATCH (Lower Anchor and
Tethers for CHildren) system or with the vehicle
seat belt. (
ªChild restraintsº page 1-16)
NISSAN recommends that all pre-teens
and children be restrained in the rear seat.
According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat.
This is especially important because your
vehicle has a supplemental restraint sys-
tem (air bag system) for the front passen-
ger. (
ªSupplemental restraint systemº
page 1-34)
INFANTSGUID-1C98AC07-35F0-4C3F-BD23-57D772394BF4Infants up to at least one year old should be
placed in a rear-facing child restraint. NISSAN
recommends that infants be placed in child
restraints that comply with Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards. You should choose a
child restraint which fits your vehicle and always
follow the manufacturer's instructions for instal-
lation and use.
SMALL CHILDRENGUID-264DB4CD-5605-4BBA-A146-1DC314130AA4Children that are over 1 year old and weigh at
least 20 lb (9 kg) should remain in a rear-facing
child restraint as long as possible up to the
height or weight limit of the child restraint.
Children who outgrow the height or weight limit
of the rear-facing child restraint and are at least
1 year old should be secured in a forward-facing
child restraint with a harness. Refer to the
manufacturer's instructions for minimum and
maximum weight and height recommendations.
NISSAN recommends that small children be
placed in child restraints that comply with
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. You
should choose a child restraint that fits your
vehicle and always follow the manufacturer's
instructions for installation and use.
LARGER CHILDRENGUID-A382489B-3EA8-495B-84AF-1756D106A7D5Children should remain in a forward-facing child
restraint with a harness until they reach the
maximum height or weight limit allowed by the
child restraint manufacturer.
Once a child outgrows the height or weight limit
of the harness-equipped forward-facing child
restraint, NISSAN recommends that the child be
placed in a commercially available booster seat
to obtain proper seat belt fit. For a seat belt to fit properly, the booster seat should raise the child
so that the shoulder belt is properly positioned
across the chest and the top, middle portion of
the shoulder. The shoulder belt should not cross
the neck or face and should not fall off the
shoulder. The lap belt should lie snugly across
the lower hips or upper thighs, not the abdomen.
A booster seat can only be used in seating
positions that have a three-point type seat belt.
The booster seat should fit the vehicle seat and
have a label certifying that it complies with
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
A booster seat should be used until the child
can pass the seat belt fit test below:
.
Are the child's back and hips against the
vehicle seatback?
. Is the child able to sit without slouching?
. Do the child's knees bend easily over the
front edge of the seat with feet flat on the
floor?
. Can the child safely wear the seat belt (lap
belt low and snug across the hips and
shoulder belt across mid-chest and
shoulder)?
. Is the child able to use the properly adjusted
head restraint/headrest?

front passenger seat.
Ð Keep seatbacks as upright as possible after fitting the child
restraint.
Ð Infants and children should al- ways be placed in an appropri-
ate child restraint while in the
vehicle.
. When the child restraint is not in
use, keep it secured with the LATCH
system or a seat belt. In a sudden
stop or collision, loose objects can
injure occupants or damage the
vehicle.
CAUTION
A child restraint in a closed vehicle can
become very hot. Check the seating
surface and buckles before placing a
child in the child restraint.
This vehicle is equipped with a universal child
restraint anchor system, referred to as the
LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHil-
dren) system. Some child restraints include rigid
or webbing-mounted attachments that can be connected to these anchors. (See
ªLower
Anchors and Tethers for CHildren System
(LATCH)º page 1-18.)
If you do not have a LATCH compatible child
restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used.
Several manufacturers offer child restraints for
infants and small children of various sizes. When
selecting any child restraint, keep the following
points in mind:
. Choose only a restraint with a label certifying
that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
. Check the child restraint in your vehicle to
be sure it is compatible with the vehicle's
seat and seat belt system.
. If the child restraint is compatible with your
vehicle, place your child in the child restraint
and check the various adjustments to be
sure the child restraint is compatible with
your child. Choose a child restraint that is
designed for your child's height and weight.
Always follow all recommended procedures.
. If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is less than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , you
may use either the LATCH anchors or the
seat belt to install the child restraint (not
both at the same time) . .
If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , use
the vehicle's seat belt (not the lower
anchors) to install the child restraint.
. Be sure to follow the child restraint manu-
facturer's instructions for installation.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated. Canadian law requires the
top tether strap on forward-facing child
restraints be secured to the designated
anchor point on the vehicle.
