GT-R R35 tuning: the workshop guide
Understanding how to prepare a Nissan GT-R R35, step by step, with a workshop located 700 metres from the Paul Ricard circuit.
Discuss your GT-R R35 projectThe key stages of a GT-R R35 build
Preparing a Nissan GT-R R35 means moving in a logical order, from diagnostics through to fine tuning. Here are the workshop pages that explain each major stage of a GT-R R35 project.
Dedicated Nissan GT-R preparation
Our page devoted to the GT-R brings together our approach to the model and the work suited to the R35.
Bespoke engine mapping
The GT-R R35 control unit is tuned case by case by our engine engineer, never with a generic map.
Complete track preparation
For track use, our track preparation links engine, cooling and suspension around a single goal.
Our work on sports cars
Our completed projects give a concrete look at the work carried out on high-end sports cars in the workshop.
How we approach a GT-R R35 build
A GT-R R35 build always starts with how the car is actually used: road, track, or both. This question guides every choice, because the VR38DETT engine, the transmission and the suspension are not tuned the same way for daily driving and for track sessions. Electronic diagnostics let us start from a sound basis and check the real state of the engine and its sensors before any work.
From there, each area is worked in step with the others. The engine and gearbox mapping is done bespoke by our engine engineer, rather than with a generic file that would ignore the car in front of him. Depending on the project, the chassis, high-performance braking and the sport exhaust line complete the package, always keeping in mind the behaviour the owner is looking for.

Preparing your GT-R R35 near the Paul Ricard circuit
Preparing a GT-R R35 makes the most sense around the track. Our workshop is located 700 metres from the Paul Ricard circuit at Le Castelet, which lets us support owners before, during and after a track day. We are an official BMW M France partner for track support and recommended by ORECA, and our team has a recovery truck to step in directly on site. This immediate closeness makes checks and adjustments between sessions much easier.

Frequently asked questions about GT-R R35 tuning
- Where does a GT-R R35 build start?
- With defining the intended use, road or track, then with electronic diagnostics. This basis lets us check the state of the engine and sensors before any work, so we build on sound and known foundations.
- Is the GT-R R35 mapping bespoke?
- Yes. At Bernis Factory, the engine and gearbox control unit is tuned case by case by an engine engineer, starting from the car and the owner's use rather than from a ready-made generic map.
- Can a GT-R R35 be prepared for track use?
- Yes. Track preparation links the engine, high-performance braking and the suspension around a single track goal. Our closeness to the Paul Ricard circuit makes checks and adjustments between sessions easier.
- What areas can a GT-R R35 build cover?
- Depending on the project, the work can involve the engine, the gearbox, the chassis, high-performance braking, the exhaust line and the mapping. Each area is worked in step with the others and with the behaviour the owner is looking for.
- Do you give a price for a GT-R R35 build?
- Every build is bespoke and depends on the car and its intended use. For an estimate suited to your GT-R R35, the simplest step is to contact us directly so we can study your project together.

Looking for a GT-R R35 tuning guide often leads to conflicting or overly generic advice. The logic is simple to state, though: start from how the car is actually used, check the engine's state with a diagnostic, then work each area in step. Bernis Factory covers this subject from its Signes workshop, with the eye of an engine engineer used to tuning each engine individually.
This page links the GT-R R35 tuning guide to our concrete trades: Nissan GT-R preparation, bespoke engine mapping, track preparation and our completed work around the Paul Ricard. It is a gateway to move from understanding the subject to a considered project on your own GT-R R35.
