Branew Gives Nissan GT-R A New Nose

When folks aren't busy crashing their Nissan GT-R's, they're out customizing them, and since Branew can't leave anything be, let alone they're own work, they've whipped up a new nose for Godzilla.

We saw the first iteration of the Branew GT-R at SEMA in November, and at that time it was festooned with body kit appropriate for the show. Now there's a brand new Branew front clip available for that kit which gussies things up with a a set of straked grilles flanking the main functional grille. They're calling it the Front Bumper Dynamic Version and it'll be available in carbon fiber or fiberglass which they'll call FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) to make it sound more exotic.

Maybe we need a "Save The GT-R's" shirt. [GTRBlog]

Branew Nissan GT-R Is All Show And No More Go For SEMA

The new Nissan GT-R is just too hard to modify for performance, what with the tricky, unhackable computer system and the already Porsche-confounding performance. That's why Japanese tuners Branew brought their Branew GT-R to SEMA with only appearance upgrades. The car gets a revised front clip, side skirts, massive 23 inch wheels, a triple-tipped exhaust outlet, functional spoiler and rear splitter mounted on a very C5 Corvette-inspired tail end. The Branew GT-R will probably suffer from the classic tuner problem of being slower with all the extra pretty stuff on it — a characteristic most tuner car enthusiasts are able to ignore.
