Circuit Mode

[Jadid]

Firstly apologies for the ignorance but what attributes does the circuit mode in Japan enable on the R35.

Also as the initial cars coming to the UK will not have Sat Nav - does this automatically mean that Nissan will not be able to enforce this mode in early cars but may do so in later Sat Nav enabled cars ?

Cheers

Circuit mode de-activates the speed limiter. And the UK cars wont have that, so no need for circuit mode, we get the full fat version out the box.

As for the last point of will it happen in the future, your guess is as good as mine, anything can happen with our government.

Cheers and agree completely - technology like this is what Gordon Browns dreams are made of.

what i first thought was differnt. i remember with launch control but not in circuit mode the car would pull 3.5sec 0 to 60.
in circuit mode it would pull 3.3 with launch control.

i only "thought" this because of the magazine that first tested this. but i guess its not the truth at all.

i also heard the uk version will be limited to 150mph. if that's the case, you will void the warranty if you delimit it. there's no such thing as circuit mode in the non JDM versions. you can instantly know this because the text in the menu comes up in katakana only, whereas everything else is both english and katakana.

I'd be surprised if the uk models were limited, but i guess if they were then they might set it to 155.

Lets hope not
