The Nissan GT-R is a sports car produced by Nissan, released in Japan on December 6, 2007, in Canada and the United States on July 7, 2008, and the rest of the world in March 2009.
Designed and produced specifically to compete in the FIA GT1 World Championship, the GT-R GT1 is based on the road-going version of the legendary Nissan GT-R and was the only car to have ever been constructed implicitly to the GT1 technical regulations. The GT-R GT1 is powered by a NISMO race-prepped VK56DE, a naturally aspirated V8 engine that displaces 5.6 L (338.8 cu in) and produces 479.35 lb·ft (649.91 N·m) of torque.
In 2009, Sumo Power, a British car tuning company, merged with JR Motorsports Group (JRM), an experienced motorsport development company. In 2010, Sumo Power and JRM partnered with Nismo to serve as one of two teams representing Nissan in the inaugural FIA GT1 World Championship. The team, entered under the Sumo Power GT title, campaigned two Nissan GT-Rs.
