Fellas i found this on ImportTuner.com. Allyuh Triniboys bac home no what to expect then eh. I go be one of the fortunate ones to have been able to drive this real badass car when it hit US shores later on this year.
We know that the Nissan GT-R's ECU wizardry is impressive, but this little
tidbit left us in awe. According to our friends over at the GTChannel, the
GT-R's integrated computer limits the vehicle's speed in Japan to 111 mph
(180 km/h), but once the GPS system detects that you've arrived at a
domestic circuit, it removes the top speed limiter for all-out track assaults.
In the U.S., they've bumped up the electronically-limited top speed to 156
mph (250 km/h), but there's no integration with the GPS here in the
States, meaning that anyone that wants to go faster on track has to have
the ECU modifed. Nissan has made several overtures that the GT-R's ECU
will be a tough nut to crack, but we're sure that enterprising tuners both
here and abroad will be able to coax a few extra ponies out of the twin-
turbo'd 3.8-liter mill and remove any electronic nannies that go with it.
