COBB Motorsports Nissan GT-R Development Update – OS Giken Rear LSD

COBB Motorsports Nissan GT-R Development Update – OS Giken Rear LSD

The COBB Tuning Motorsports team and I just got back from our first weekend of testing at California Speedway with the new OS Giken TCD rear Limited Slip Differential (LSD) upgrade for our GT-R. With nearly 800HP available at the wheels, I had been experiencing significant rear wheel spin on corner exit that was obviously hurting the car’s ability to put power down coming out of the turns and hurting our...

COBB Tuning SurgeLine E-Tuned GT-R does 10’s!!!

If you have a GT-R and you crave unparalleled performance and speed, then you must have an AccessPORT. This time slip comes from one of our AccessPORT E-Tune customers (Jason from Florida) who simply installed an AccessPORT onto his GT-R along with a custom tune from COBB Tuning SurgeLine. The results are incredible and would almost be unbelieveable, a 10.95-second ET at 126mph, except he has the tell-all timeslip to...

Record Breaking Power with AccessPORT-Powered GOTO:Racing Time Attack GT-R

Record Breaking Power with AccessPORT-Powered GOTO:Racing Time Attack GT-R

GOTO:Racing’s GT-R represents the very edge of development for this particular platform. There are perhaps a handful of fully race-prepared GT-Rs in the world. Of course, because this vehicle is not a factory effort, the progress on the GOTO GT-R is a direct reflection of the aftermarket industry that supports the GT-R. GOTO:Racing and the Lock family have prepared a state of the art chassis. However, at a comparatively heavy...

Tim Bailey at COBB Tuning Surgeline, takes his new GT-R to the Drags

When most people get a new car they protect it like a newborn. They swaddle it with microfiber towels, avoid driving through puddles and take extra care not to harm their new pride and joy. In the case of brand new supercars, these are usually packed away into garages wrapped in a plastic bubble. But at COBB Tuning Surgeline, we do things a bit differently. Upon taking posession of his...
