Fitment questions

Does the Nissan GT-R have an airbag control module?

Yes, all R35 Nissan GT-Rs (2009 onwards in the UK) are fitted with a supplemental restraint system (SRS) that includes an airbag control module (ACM), which manages the airbag deployment and pretensioner seat belt functions. The GT-R is a single-generation, single-body-style model, so any genuine GT-R will have this part. If you are sourcing a used unit, always confirm compatibility with the breaker against your exact registration, as the SRS system configuration can vary.

Will a GT-R airbag control module from an earlier year fit my later car?

The Nissan GT-R R35 has been produced in a single generation but has received a number of annual and mid-cycle updates throughout its production run, and Nissan has made incremental changes to its electronics and SRS systems over the years. Because of this, an airbag control module from a different model year may not be compatible with your vehicle's specific SRS setup. You should confirm with the breaker that the part number or build-year matches your registration before purchasing.

Does the GT-R trim level affect which airbag control module I need?

The Nissan GT-R has been sold in the UK in several trim levels including Premium, Black Edition, and Nismo, with differences primarily in interior specification, seats, and equipment levels. Because the airbag control module ties into the wider SRS system including seat-mounted airbags and pretensioners, trim-level differences in seating could affect compatibility. Confirm with the breaker that the unit they have came from a car matching your trim level and registration to be safe.

Can I fit a used GT-R airbag control module myself?

Airbag control modules are safety-critical components, and we strongly recommend professional fitting by a qualified technician rather than a DIY installation. An incorrectly fitted module can cause airbags to fail to deploy in a collision or, in rare cases, deploy unexpectedly, both of which are extremely dangerous. A professional will also be able to clear any SRS fault codes and verify the system is functioning correctly after the replacement.

Does it matter if the airbag module came from a car that had its airbags deployed?

Yes, this matters significantly — airbag control modules are often single-use components and may be locked or damaged following airbag deployment, making them unsuitable for reuse. Always ask the breaker to confirm that the module came from a vehicle where the airbags were not deployed. A reputable breaker should be able to tell you the condition and history of the part before you commit to buying.

Does the GT-R engine variant affect which airbag control module I need?

No — engine specification does not affect airbag control module fitment on the GT-R, as the module is part of the interior SRS system rather than anything engine-related. All R35 GT-Rs share the same twin-turbocharged VR38DETT engine anyway, so this is not a variable to worry about on this model. What matters more is the model year and trim level, which you should confirm with the breaker against your registration.
