2017 Nissan GT-R: Precision craftsmanship 匠

NEW YORK (March 23, 2016) - A hand built 3.8L twin-turbo V6 lies at the heart of every Nissan GT-R. Each engine in the 2017 GT-R is assembled by one of five master craftsman - we call them Takumi - at Nissan’s plant in Yokohama, Japan. This is story about what it takes to become a Nissan Takumi and their remarkable skill of precision craftsmanship unparalleled by man or machine.
GT-Rのエンジンは日産横浜工場で熟練した技術者により一台一台手組みされています。全社で５名しかいない「匠」のストーリー。

This engine is made with world-class precision and quality, so I hope that people who buy it all over the world will do the best maintenance.

[@Thelionfan11]

He touches - he feels - he listen to the engine ! Now that's how a master engineer must be and only a Samurai can do that much respect :-) My like No-437 :-)

[@vonzuriel4341]

+Thelionfan11... DO NOT LIKE....#757 LOVE IT!!!

[@Thelionfan11]

+Zuriel Diaz You have to correct your comment dude check it out :-)

[@gabrielrunggaldier5208]

Japanese motors are the best. Congratulations to all those who have worked on this engine. Good and so on!

[@birel_dd2]

RESPECT ;) GT-R

[@dailystruggletv5403]

master craftsmen they set the standard's awesome

[@dennisbeo4308]

They put their souls in their hands and transferred it into their engine that they built. So they can proudly say. ( I put my soul and pride inside that engine ) so you can drive to proudly

[@kvetc1962]

[@DewwaKakkar]

[@strikye7]

*hailing*

[@vonzuriel4341]

Got to respect this masters and engineers who build this engine. A 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V6 hand-assembled by craftspeople called Takumi. The engine now makes 565 horsepower and 467 pound-feet of torque, increasing of 20 hp and 4 lb-ft. Is in it that sweet?,... from a V6 ? That's just one of the things that i love from this car, NOT a hipper car!!...but still can hang out with them and show off what it can do. My admiration and respect to the builders and of course, my dream car...NISSAN GT-R.

[@route66garage59]

The gtr is overhyped lol, the one you see in video games and the ones in real life are completely different. 💁🏻‍♂️

[@mauricioalfredo83]

I cant belive 10 years have past since GTR reborn and raise the new world standar to a diferent level ....thnks nissan to brought back real engeneering instead expensive badge heritage cars.

[@route66garage59]

Gtr and Nissan lack heritage, they copy what those “expensive badge heritage cars” have been already doing. There’s a reason why the gtr is the cheaper car 💁🏻‍♂️

[@how2what4]

Would love to see the rest of the manufacturing process. Please make more detailed videos like this.

[@romadhon1992]

good appreciate,... when i visit nissan galery in yokohama, i think that nissan is produce good car with high quality too,... good job nissan

[@lumixcross1215]

like a samurai talking to his sword.

[@xKiDDiamonDx]

The new NSX will not have this high quality craftsmanship.

[@mauricioalfredo83]

the new nsx isnt a jdm :( its made in usa :/

[@route66garage59]

And the gtr is German lol. Many engine composted in the gtr are made in Germany lol. The nsx is a more superior car to the gtr and being US built is what helped the nsx have a successful comeback. Also the nsx is sleek and much better looking, almost reminds me of an R8 and McLaren for the back. The gtr is like the fat girl in the club hanging out with all the sexy super models lolol! 😂🤣😭💀

Kehandalan,ketelitian,Presisi dan etos kerja yg disiplin dan bertanggung jawab serta menjunjung tinggi standarisasi kerja,Jepang patut ditiru oleh pekerja di penjuru dunia.

[@user-vc5rp7nf8f]

GT-R is my religion

[@triple6758]

Honor. Pride. Excellence.

[@fxlts]

need the full build process, gave me goosebumps #ASMR

[@MrGTO-ze7vb]

LOL.. you can't be off one tooth on the timing chain. yet 2 or 3?? The vibrations should feel the same on every one of these handbuilt engines. Very clean assembly areas. Well built Rockets..!!

[@survivorq8]

it's not just a car you drive there is more I believe

[@coolhandpuke3780]

Just a little bit of ga ga, but would sell my soul for one. Brilliant

[@tskk_NMSL]

[@annemiebartholome7816]

+George S han solo died because he wouldn't let chewbacca drive the GT-R.

[@AnonymouSRU]

У меня Qashqai (Dualis), GT-R конечно топ, мечта.

[@user-ut7ti8eg8x]

5人しかいねぇのか AMGも真っ青だな

[@Jakes_projects]

Although I can appreciate this engine and these guys assembling it, I would still prefer a straight six like the original - perfect primary and secondary balance and an intoxicating sound. Not saying V6's dont sound good, just that straight 6's sound better! imho ;)

[@fazleerezuan]

To be a Takumi, You shall not smile!

[@user-fv3xf4eq1c]

次期r36のエンジンも匠を継承して欲しいです。

[@KawaiKaisei]

車を操る楽しさ、チューニングする楽しさがなくなったのは事実

[@fahvm4362]

How many engine they built?

[@Ma77riK]

nothing they said in this video is beyond what a well respected mechanic does on a daily basis, evaluating a mechanical problem by sound and feel are basics. and tolerances are normally measured in microns on the most basic of engine builds/rebuilds. basically Nissan was smart and just hired good mechanics instead of robots.

[@sermerlin1]

+turbonut20v And how many well respected mechanics are there? Like 0.0000000000000000000000001%. I have yet to see a well respected mechanic who could tell me what's wrong just by tapping into his senses. Hell i can feel what's wrong with the car yet they all go like "what bruh it's fine i can't hear anything wrong" yet my engine is so quietly crackling you can barely notice it and it started recently. They didn't hire good mechanics. They hired builders. Mechanics fix and rebuild cars. Engine builders build engines from scrap.

[@JTube571]

+turbonut20v The point is that this kind of craftsmanship is VERY rare these days when it comes to building new cars.

[@pascalmpower7944]

Saw a video of how 458 F136F engines being hand-built, the difference is, Ferrari workers are monitored by sensors and computers lol While GT-R workers are on their own but this doesn't affect the quality quite much, it just means GT-R workers are much sophisticated and well trained. For engine spec, I think Nissan GT-R have one of the best VVT system programming which gains flatter torque curve amount most sub 4 liters back in 2007. The engine is strong problem is the GR6 transmission doesn't have the right welding gasket to handle high torque. VR38 is one of the most capable engine to be honest, most power per psi among most engines in similar displacement.

[@route66garage59]

The Ferrari engine is a true masterpiece, they are superior and far better crafted, and the computers are only optional to for quality assurance. The gtr engines are assembled using an exclusive VR blueprint software program to guide the technicians lol and have to go through multiple inspections for quality assurance to make sure the tech didn’t screw anything up lol. I guess there’s a reason why the gtr is the cheaper car in the segment.

i love japani bullet taren gol i love japani tokyo city gol......

多少オイル漏れしたり滲んだりの精度のアバウトなエンジンが長持ちする場合もあるのでどうなのかな。

NISSANが暴れだす❗

[@tommymack2589]

こんいちわ

[@route66garage59]

This video is overhyped lol. There is more passing the engine around random bays while they assemble larger components that are 3D printed. Nissan copied this method from AMG their partner MB’s performance division so that they can justify the outrageous price of the gtr. Not quite working out considering that they sell for well below their msrp. That in itself doesn’t make it a bad thing or a bad car but when you factor in the fact that it’s just a Nissan and the fact that there are cars out there for less than $100k that embarrass the gtr you quickly begin to realize that the hundred $100k in your bank looks a lot better than a gtr in the garage 💁🏻‍♂️ Lol

[@patwalker481]

the day you grow balls his when you race at le mans the GTR refusal to race against the best, show how that car is so over rated

[@route66garage59]

Pat walker agreed, it’s the most overhyped car on the planet because of silly fans that know nothing about cars except what they hear and see on video games and the internet lol.
