Fitment questions

What years did the Nissan GT-R run, and are there any major generation or facelift changes that affect DPF fitment?

The R35 Nissan GT-R launched in the UK in 2009 and has continued in production with a series of annual and mid-cycle updates rather than a clean-cut generation change; notable refresh points include the 2012 and 2017 model-year revisions. For DPF fitment the key boundaries are the emissions era and engine code rather than the refresh year, so confirm the exact engine code and Euro emissions standard on your V5 with the breaker before ordering.

Will a DPF from a 2012 GT-R fit my 2017 GT-R?

The 2012 and 2017 GT-R both use the VR38DETT engine, but the 2017 model-year revision is a meaningful update boundary and exhaust and emissions components can differ across such changes. Whether the DPF from a pre-2017 car physically fits and legally complies on a post-2017 car is strong confirm-with-breaker territory — quote your registration and ask the breaker to check the part numbers against both donor and recipient.

Does the GT-R even have a DPF? I thought it was a petrol car.

The GT-R is indeed a petrol car powered by the twin-turbocharged VR38DETT V6, and petrol engines do not use a diesel particulate filter — DPFs are specific to diesel engines. What the GT-R does have is a catalytic converter as part of its exhaust after-treatment system, so if it is emissions or exhaust-related parts you need, search for a catalytic converter rather than a DPF.

Does the trim level affect which DPF — or cat — I need for my GT-R?

The GT-R has been sold in the UK in variants such as Pure, Premium, Black Edition, and Track Edition, but trim level does not affect the exhaust after-treatment components — fitment is determined by the engine code, model year, and emissions standard, not by specification level. A cat from a Black Edition donor should be no different in specification to one from a Pure, though confirm with the breaker against your registration as interchange specifics remain their call.

Can I use a GT-R catalytic converter from a Japanese import on my UK car?

Japanese-market GT-Rs (JDM) were built to Japanese emissions standards which differ from the Euro standards that govern UK MOT compliance, so a cat from a JDM car may not meet the emissions requirements tested at UK MOT. Always confirm with the breaker whether the donor car was a UK-specification or import vehicle, and check the part numbers match, before purchasing.
