Questions

What is a Nismo Z-Tune?

A 2005 factory build by Nismo: 19 cars, each rebuilt from a low-mileage V-Spec with a 2.8-litre RB26 (the "Z2"), Sachs dampers, Brembo brakes and carbon wide-body aero. It is the most complete GT-R Nissan ever made, and the base for Project Kaiju.

Why Black Pearl instead of Bayside Blue?

Black Pearl (code GV1) is the colour the Z-Tune was actually delivered in: a black base under a fine blue-tinted pearl that reads flat black in shade and lights up in sun. Kaiju keeps it.

Is Project Kaiju a real car?

Not yet. It's a fully specified dream build — every part chosen and priced — shown as an interactive 3D model so you can inspect it the way you'd walk around a real car.
