Tip:
This one is actually quite hard because the GTR does suffer from weight and understeer in this course. But because of that it also makes this car really predictable.
First of all make sure you pass the start line at/over 200km/h (124mph). Then at the chicane just make sure you get the cones as close to you as possible (you'll have to figure out the braking and turn in on your own). For the hairpin make sure you're hug the inside as much as possible and stay at the right side of the course. This way you have a very good position to do an out-in-out for the next left hand turn (*Note it happens so quickly you may not have enough time to go all the way to the right. Just brake as soon as you reach that corner, get on the inside early and exit the corner with early throttle).
After that it's a bit difficult as it tests your braking but generally brake before curb and don't let your wheels lock up. The car will understeer and go wide but the car should be slow enough to regain grip and hug the left side and ready for the next turn. Don't go wide in the next corner, do 'left-foot-braking' if you have to and throttle out as soon as you see the curb on the exit.
The traditional corner needs you do some harsh downshift and enter the corner at uncomfortably low speed (around 3rd), otherwise you will go wide. Threat the chicanes as 2 separate ones. Enter at about 4th at wide angle and throttle out, the car won't understeer. At this time you should still be at the left side of the track. Then, immediately, brake and enter the next chicane still hugging the left and then brake early again so that you can get a good angle out.
The fast bend is slower than it looks. You'll have brake down to 3rd before turning in. It's better off to treat it like a hairpin. The next bit is another chicane where you have to do a slow left and set a fast right. So again brake early before you reach the curb and hug left (I find it easier to stay in 4th from the last corner). Then throttle out fully. You should have mastered it from continuous restarts :)
