Description: Since its introduction, the GT-R has been the undeniable king of the sport-compact tuner world. Even in stock form, the GT-R gives drivers performance advantages not found in any other car. This book explains why. Alex Gorodji describes the ATTESA E-TS and HICAS systems: unique all-wheel-drive and all-wheel steering systems so remarkable they could easily be platforms for a general study of all-wheel drive systems, all-wheel steering systems, and other systems of modern high performance cars. Anyone who likes engines, or cars will enjoy exploring the mechanical intricacies that make the GT-R different from any other car. This book also reviews the three previous generations, concentrating on technical development as well as the driving experience and racing heritage. The author pays special attention to technical aspects such as the all-wheel steering and drive systems, the chassis, and the legendary six-cylinder, twin-turbocharged engines. His work will explain the GT-R to those who already admire the car, and to those who wonder what the excitement is all about.
