I would like to say that I think the USA is not ready too, so I can join in the group that thinks themselves superior, and has disdain for their countrymen.
I just want to make sure I am posted up here, so I maintain my superiority complex.
ANYway, I suspect Nissan would not say the GTR is "perfect", and the Spec V is evidence of their thoughts on improving it, in a stepwise fashion.
Unfortunately, the cost of this improvement makes it unrealistic for most people even here/with GTR's, so we are left to try, carefully and in measured, tested, track and street-proven ways, to make more affordable incremental improvements to our vehicles.
No father or mother EVER thinks their baby should be "modified", it is great just as it is...Mizuno-san is INDEED the true Father of the GTR here
This is outstanding and proper, and I give him great respect.
Many would disagree with his idea that the GTR should not be modified.
Have you modified YOUR car? Hmm, maybe YOU are not ready either, in Mizuno's eyes...
Leaving the car exactly as it came from Nissan for "several years" until the Spec V (which many can't afford) comes to USA is not likely for those who decide to make Mizuno-san's car...THEIR car...and not just a loaner
I hope the training-up process the GTR brings to Nissan USA dealership net will improve the dealers' abilities. This is a useful function of the GTR and what it represents also.
