1. Key Factors
Performance
Following the launch of the new generation supercar, the Nissan GT-R, at Tokyo Motor Show in October 2007, Zele International Limited has used its experience and knowledge from research and development on the road and track, to create the ultimate production car. To optimize the power-to-weight ratio, power delivery and handling, Zele International modified the GT-R’s engine, engine management system, suspension and aerodynamics.
ZELE R35 GT-R Complete Edition’s brain, the “FZ-ROM Type 3 ECU” increases engine power output to 550ps.
Titanium is used extensively in the exhaust system, and offers the benefits of weight saving, heat proofing and an exciting exhaust note.
Oil temperature management is also important to optimize the performance and as such, a rear differential oil cooler is fitted.
All of these modifications have improved the standard GT-R’s weak points and thus enhance the overall performance.
Aerodynamics
In order to optimize the GT-R’s power-to-weight ratio, Zele International Limited makes extensive use of carbon fiber. Dry carbon fiber is used for the roof, the front bumper, the rear spoiler and the side rear view mirrors. Further to this carbon fiber is used for front lip spoiler, side skirts, NACA hood air ducts, rear under spoiler and so on.
Handling
To optimize the handling for the ZELE R35 GT-R Complete Edition, Zele International Limited developed a height adjustable (HA) Conversion Kit that gives added features to the GT-R’s standard Bilstein shock absorbers. Using the Zele HA Conversion Kit, it’s possible to adjust the vehicle ride height as desired while retaining the standard Bilstein Damptronic System electronically adjustable damper functionality.
To enhance the GT-R’s considerable stopping power, Zele Sports Brake Pads are fitted to the standard Brembo aluminum brake calipers.
The wheels on ZELE R35 GT-R Complete Edition are Zele original RAYS 20 inch forged alloy wheels. Customers are given the choice of either GramLights R57GT or the new Volk Racing TE37 G2.
Interior
Holding you in place during high “G” cornering are a pair of Alcantara trimmed RECARO full bucket seats.
Design
ZELE R35 GT-R Complete Edition offers an outstanding look with ZELE’s award-winning premium bodykit and Customized Paint Program which can be ordered in any color you choose.
At the SEMA Show 2008 in Las Vegas, U.S.A., ZELE R35 GT-R Complete Edition Proto was ranked as one of the top 13 cars by Mothers taking away the Mothers Choice trophy for design excellence.

3. Exclusive Equipments for ZELE R35 GT-R Complete Edition
FZ-ROM ECU Type3
The brain for the ZELE R35 GT-R Complete Edition manages a significant maximum output increase to 550ps.
ZELE Dry Carbon Fiber Roof
The dry carbon fiber roof is as strong as a steel roof, yet weighs far less. It reduces weight from the highest point of the vehicle, lowering the center of gravity and reducing yaw during cornering.
The original steel roof is replaced with the dry carbon fiber one using the same adhesive used for SUPER GT race cars.
ZELE Dry Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler
Using dry carbon fiber reduces the weight above the trunk lid significantly. The shape is optimized to produce more downforce with the Zele full bodykit. It allows ideal power delivery with less drag.
ZELE Dry Carbon Fiber Front Bumper
Using dry carbon fiber as the material, it reduces the overhang weight significantly. Weight reduction in this area provides better cornering. The design is the same as the standard award-winning Zele Front Aero Bumper.
ZELE Customized Paint Program
In ZELE R35 GT-R Complete Edition, there are no compromises. Customers with a particular color in mind will find Zele International Limited can mix the exact water-based metallic or pearl-effect shade desired.
