ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE ITEMS

The following information applies if the owners engage in performance driving such as driving your GT-R for extended periods under the following conditions.

• Higher-RPM (approaching redline) operation
• Frequent high pedal force braking from moderate and higher speeds
• Frequent throttle activation
• Fast revving throughout the RPM range

In such cases, the following additional maintenance guidelines apply.
We recommend that maintenance be performed at a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. NISSAN will only pay for GT-R Performance Optimization Services performed at a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.

• Before driving, check the fluid levels and adjust as necessary using the specified fluid.
• Check the amount of fluid for the power steering.
• Be sure to change the fluids listed below with the specified fluids every 1,800 miles (3,000 km).

• Measure and adjust the wheel alignment.
• Check the tire pressure and the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) sensor.
• Make tire pressure adjustments only when the tires are cool.
• Secure road wheel balance weights with aluminum tape or equivalent.
• Check the heat deterioration and wear of the brakes. (As necessary, the brake pad and the brake disc rotor must be replaced as a set of four with new ones.)

Check the coolant level in the pressurized coolant reservoir. Adjust the level so that the fluid is between the MAX and MIN markings. For the coolant, use genuine NISSAN Long Life coolant. (On delivery of new vehicle, the reservoir is filled to the MIN level. Be sure to replenish approximately 0.3 to 0.4 US quart (0.3 to 0.4 liter) of coolant.)

For maximum cooling system performance, the coolant mixture ratio should be the combination of 30% antifreeze and 70% demineralized or distilled water. If ambient temperatures are anticipated below 5°F (-15°C), make sure a proper mixture ratio of 50% antifreeze and 50% demineralized or distilled water mix is used.

Cool down the vehicle to help extend the life of the vehicle if coolant temperatures are extremely high. Drive the vehicle at 37 to 50 MPH (60 to 80 km/h), in 5th or 6th gear for 2 to 3 miles (3 to 5 km) and then stop the engine.
