The Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3 is a grand touring racing sports car manufactured by NISMO, the sports and turning arm of Nissan; the car was developed in the wake of the impending discontinuation of the Nissan GT-R GT1. The car was designed and developed in conjunction with British racing team JR Motorsports. The car is powered by a race-tuned 3.8L VR38DETT V6, similar to its road-going counterpart. The GT-R NISMO GT3 was given a technical update in 2018, aimed to "improve driving performance"; the car's engine was moved rearward and lowered and other changes made to improve weight distribution. The car has been campaigned by numerous teams in numerous GT racing championships and has achieved 84 wins as of 2024.
This is a replica of the Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3 used in the film Gran Turismo as driven by Jann Mardenborough (portrayed by Archie Madekwe) in the film; Mardenborough himself would also appear in the film and act as Madekwe's stunt double. Chassis GTR-8A01 was originally purchased by RJN Motorsports in 2014 and used for competition until 2020 when it was purchased by Darren Cox; it was sold at Silverstone Auctions in 2023.
