Malaysian tuners turn the Nissan Murano crossover into off-road GT-R

Specialists from the K1 Racing company took up the unusual modernization of the first generation models. The tuners plan to completely change the appearance of the donor car, as well as seriously finalize the technical part, including the engine. Apparently, the project is at the initial stage, since the visual changes in the crossover look like artisanal improvements.

Judging by the photographs, the Malaysian tuners are going to save only the roof and the murano salon. Using cash body panels, the front of the crossover was turned into an increased GT-R version. The car was also equipped with extended wheeled arches, massive rapids, a new bumper and two spoilers. In addition, Murano was provided with new optics. At the same time, the luggage door of the car now performs only a decorative function.

In addition to external changes, the crossover expect numerous modifications of the chassis. This is evidenced by the inconsistency of the size of the wheels and arches. Tuners also plan to engage in modification of the standard engine. In the drain of Murano, the first generation was equipped with a 3.5-liter V6 with a capacity of 250 horsepower. Which unit will receive an all-terrain GT-R is still unknown.

In mid -March, Chevrolet Corvette, built on the basis of Mitsubishi Eclipse, appeared on sale. The car was sold at the Philippines at the price of Lada Vesta SW Cross.
