Nissan confirmed earlier this month that it was installing a new software update for the gearbox in the GT-R that is designed to minimize stress levels placed on the dual-clutch unit during hard launches. The software update affects the way the vehicle launches from a standstill in two main ways. It increases the allowable rpm level beyond the current 2,000rpm limit when the VDC traction control system is switched on, but sadly it also decreases the maximum allowable rpm limit when the VDC is switched off. This immediately concerned many who saw the nanny system as a bane to fast acceleration times.
