Follow on Google News | Zircotec brings thermal management expertise to GT-R Owners Club, offering exclusive member discoOxfordshire firm’s specialist ceramic coatings offered to members of the Nissan GT-R Owners Club, enhancing performance of cars bearing the famous GT-R badge.
By: Zircotec The Nissan GT-R has long been associated with specialist tuning, with a large proportion of owners of this iconic model further improving their cars, to enhance both the aesthetic and performance appeal of models from earlier R32 variants, celebrating their 25th anniversary this year, right up to the current R35 GT-R. The combination of turbocharged cars and the potential for high power outputs can create excessive heat being generated, that can be managed with the use of Zircotec’s specialist products. Exhaust systems are often a high performance car owner’s first step to increasing their car’s performance. To maximise overall power output, Zircotec ceramic coatings ensure that internal exhaust temperatures remain high, whilst lowering the surface temperatures and avoiding parts in close proximity suffering from heat damage. The coatings are also particularly effective on turbocharged cars, allowing internal exhaust gas temperatures to remain high, maximising operating efficiency and allowing the turbo to spool up quickly. Zircotec’s specialist process involves plasma spraying the exhaust using a flame operating at up to 14,000°C which effectively welds the coating to the substrate. Entire exhaust systems can be coated, or specific items such as manifolds or tail pipes can undergo the process separately. With a choice of 14 colours available, the benefits are aesthetic as well as performance related. A further product to be offered to club members is ZircoFlex®, an easy to fit ceramic heatshield material that can be fitted to areas susceptible to high temperatures, such as engine compartments. Recently launched for a retail environment, the product is available in 290mm x 200mm and 290mm x 410mm, with retail prices ranging from just £17.00 to £45.00.
