The Zele Complete Edition is one amazing car, but with a 18.9 million yen price tag many of the exclusive dry carbon parts were out of reach for the regular GT-R enthusiast. Zele were initially restricting the sale of these exclusive dry carbon parts to the complete edition but now they’ve decided not to refuse perfectly good business if it presents itself.
Zele Performance will now sell select parts from the complete edition separately from the entire Zele Complete Edition package. The following parts have pricing for individual sale so far:
Want to get your hands on these in the USA? GT-RR and GTMotoring are both Zele dealers you can turn to to get these parts and anything else Zele have in their catalogue.
First seen at SEMA in the US, Volk has recently released a new addition to their wheel lineup. The Volk Racing G2 or TE37 G2. Following this they have now added a new offset to the lineup to debut at Tokyo AutoSalon 2009. The new GT-R fitment changes the front to 20″x10″ +30mm offset while the rear moves to a 20″x11″ +25mm offset.
Zele International have a set of these for demoing at Tokyo AutoSalon in the flat black colour that everyone seemed to love at SEMA. We snapped a few shots of them while recently on site at Zele for a pre-TAS visit.
Rays Wheels will have quite a substantial sized booth at Tokyo AutoSalon as usual. They’re located in Hall 1 this year so stop by to check these out in the flesh.
We are well and truly in the lead up to the biggest Japanese tuner show of the year, Tokyo AutoSalon, now. Today we paid a pre-TAS visit to one of my favourite workshops, Zele International.
Zele have two workshops not far from Tokyo. The first is at Atsugi while the main showroom is situated in Yokohama. We went to their Yokohama workshop to meet with Zele’s President, Satoshi Kamata-san to discuss their AutoSalon plans and plans for the sale of the new Zele Complete Edition package which is making it’s public debut in Japan at the show on Friday.
As already revealed, just eight Zele Complete Edition cars will be built. They are available to anyone worldwide with the caveat that you ship your GT-R to the Zele Yokohama workshop for the work to be carried out.
While we were there we got to check out both the Type-1 and Type-2 FZ-Titanium exhaust systems. The Type-1 was installed on the Zele Complete Edition demo car. The video below is what the FZ-Titan Type-1 exhaust sounds like on the FZ-ROM ECU Type-3 (550ps) tuned GT-R.
The FZ-Titan Type-2 exhaust is also an option on the Zele Complete Edition package. This more conventional looking quad outlet exhaust is of the best quality possible. We took a set of detailed photos for those undecided on which exhaust to go for on their GT-R.
Last but not least we got some exclusive photos of the last optional item on the Zele Complete Edition package not yet seen by the public. We will be posting those in the next 24hrs so stick around to find out what it is.
For those interested in meeting up with the NAGTROC and GTRBlog teams, we’ll be holding a meetup at TAS on Friday the 9th of January from 3:00pm – 3:30pm at the Zele International booth (#215) at Tokyo AutoSalon 2009.
We’ve now received final specs and details on the much anticipated Zele International Complete edition. We’ve also got our hands on photos of the first prototype based upon the famous Zele International custom orange Nissan GT-R.
The Zele Complete Edition package features the following improvements on the R35 GT-R:
The Package includes a one year 20,000 km warranty and is available worldwide. The Zele Complete Edition can be ordered in US Specification, European Specification or Japan specifications (LHD and RHD) vehicles. Only 8 Zele Complete Editions will be made.
As for the price, this will be announced Friday morning at Tokyo AutoSalon 2009, 9th January 2009! Expect it to go for more than the GT-R Spec-V however. Zele International are located in booth #215 so drop in and say “Hi!”, English speaking staff will most likely be around much of the day to answer your questions.
As always stay tuned for more and check the photo gallery after the jump of the Zele Complete Edition Prototype!
