Nissan GTR un-moddable? Bah! Amuse GTR brings it all out to 602hp

We could really say that Nissan's quite good at the PR game, first off is their claim that the GTR produces 480hp, which was then shown to produced upwards of 540hp when dyno-ed, then came the 7:29 second run on the Nurburgring, breaking the N-Ring production car record and sending everyone with everything to try and create new records for their own categories, and then the speed limiter, which automatically switch off when you reached a circuit, and lastly, the un-moddable claim, where any simple tuning would cause the ECU to go crazy. Well, long time legendary Japanese tuner Amuse had created a 602hp GTR by tweaking the same ECU that's said to cause 'problems' (Problems of Too Fast Too Furious?) and then a titanium exhaust, and an electronic boost controller, all in all it created a 571 ln ft torque monster, while shaving off 100lbs. Let's wait for more crazy stuffs to come from the land of the rising sun.
