Talk:NISSAN R390 GT1/@comment-32155055-20180515173504

The black paint scheme sort of mimics the "Secret Black Cars" available in Gran Turismo 4.

Also reading a bit of history of this engine, this engine 3.5L Twin-Turbo V8, is the same engine that went on to be used in most McLarens of today.

The design of the engine was sold by Nissan to McLaren and the engine was improved by McLaren while getting more than the 600 hp that it produced in this R390 GT1.

I'm glad the P1 GTR has this improved engine. What a coincidence lol X-D. The only similarity between Nissan's and McLaren's version of the VRH35 engine is the bore (93 mm).

The entire car is sort of based on the Jaguar XJR-15, particularly its body.
