2009 Nissan GT-R Premium 725 WHP, Alpha 9, Motec M-1, Forged Performance Stage II Trans Upgrade
This GT-R has several track records at Watkins Glen 2:09, Millville, NJ Lightning ( 1:03;48 ), VIR, Mt.
Tremblance ( 1:39 ), COTA, TX (2:24:20), etc. Like everyone else I had to suffer through a long list of OEM short
comings that make this car poorly suited for a road course event longer then 15 mins in the summer. GT-R currently
fitted with taller wing pylons proven to be necessary with wind tunnel tests and test driving at the track, lower
pylons are available if buyer request.
In order to correct these problems one at a time and to enjoy the true race purebred buried deep inside
beneath all the factory defects, I have upgraded this car with the following systems / parts. For 2 years non stop
I have poured my heart, soul, wallet and engineering experience into solving every single problem that has limited
the GT-R from being the truly great car that it was designed to be. How the factory every thought that 265 F engine
coolant was going to adequately cool 285 F trans oil in a liquid to liquid heat exchanger the size of a soup can is
a mystery. But, by adding the extra Setrab cores, fans, pumps, filters to the trans oil, Front and Rear diff oil,
engine oil, systems even during the most brutal summer race this is the ONLY GT-R that will never red line the
trans oil, cook the diff oil, or worse yet - drop into LIMP MODE doing 180 MPH on the back straight at Watkins
Glen, or the bowl at Pocono !!!
My attention to detail has been meticulous because I am an FAA Aircraft Mechanic and have built and restored
many aircraft both prop and turbine and done 6 car projects as well. So the car is flawless in every respect and it
still retains a 110% premium quality look interior ( can reinstall the rear seat cushions if you want ), exterior
and under the hood. The car is absolutely 100% street legal & currently registered and inspected in PA. A very
serious contender for trophies at all shows and track events. I did not give into the idea that because I was
building a racer that I could justify the use of sheet metal and pop rivets. Look at the detail for the rebound
adjusters on the JRZ shocks - custom machined extensions - everyone else has to leave the rear storage deck out to
get to the knob. Also look at the JRZ canister installations - well engineered and easy to get to - open the hood
or trunk and instant access. Even the factory and Stillen suggest putting the front canisters in the battery &
power steering compartments - SICK !!! - not in this car.
Check out the overhead aviation type switch panel - not a panel cut into the dash with a razor knife and caulk like
some owners have done. This switch panel is where the overhead sunglass case was and I had to temporarily remove
the dash, all the A pillar trim, airbags, head liner to install all the fused wiring for this sub-panel with a
Master, Front Diff Pump, Rear Diff pump, Trans oil pump, Fans, Aux. fuel transfer pump switch from the 18 gallon
race fuel cell in the trunk, cool shirt pump, and Traqmate GPS Data Acquisition system master. Every switch has a
unique LED indicator light on it so you can easily see what you have turned on while doing 170 MPH on the front
straight at the Glen. That one switch panel speaks volumes as to the detail that has gone into all the work on this
car.
I have over $ 120 K invest in just PARTS and SUB Contracts, not including my 2,000 man-hours for engineering, fab,
and install in the car beyond the current market value.

AMS price: $24999.95 UNINSTALLED - JUST FOR PARTS
AMS Alpha 9 Package Includes the items below PLUS it was factory Installed by AMS the designers of the System -
believe me YOU DO NOT - NOT - want to do the dual Bosch 44 fuel pump install yourself - by necessity it is 8 #'s in
a 5 # bag all working through a 6" opening in the right saddle tank - after you dump 100% of all the fuel in both
tanks. You have to clock each worm clamp so in its final position the worm screw and tail don't fowl something else
- also have to trim all hose clamp bands to precise lengths so there isn't any excess - it's insane - but worth it
once you get on the dyno and see those 800 ++ ponies. I had them dial back the tune to protect the internals - and
at 725 -750 HP you are very safe with the stock engine.

Nissan Sport Sedan Concept foretells a future Maxima
Mon, 13 Jan 2014Nissan is in the midst of overhauling its design language. We got our first glimpse at the direction its style was going a year ago with the Resonance crossover concept, which was followed in Shanghai by the connected-car Friend-Me hatchback concept. And now, after dropping a few hints, Nissan has revealed the third in this developing series.
Unveiled at today's Detroit Auto Show, the new Sport Sedan Concept applies many of the same design elements we've seen on Nissan's previous show cars to a more conventional four-door shape. But far from a design exercise, the decidedly uncreatively named Sport Sedan Concept previews "a future production sports sedan," which has every indication of being the next Maxima.
Its dimensions reveal the concept to be bigger than the current Maxima in every direction but height, with that visual impression further entrenched by a floating roof design that combines with a high waistline to give a coupe-like profile. There are also sharp creases in the bodywork that visually break up the space between the rear set of 21-inch alloys and the tapered greenhouse. The shape is further punctuated by the V-shaped grille and distinctly Nissan boomerang-shaped lights that lend a face to this distinctly Japanese design that was penned in California and honed back in Japan. The sharp and simple cabin is characterized by a high-contrast palette with quilted leather and metallic trim.
Infiniti readies Juke-based ESQ crossover specifically for China
Wed, 11 Jun 2014When most luxury automakers started getting into SUVs and crossovers, they started at with the largest models, but have gradually been getting smaller. Think Lexus and the LX, Audi and the Q7, or BMW and the X5, and you'll see what we mean, because each of them has been steadily downsizing its crossovers ever since. But Infiniti is going even smaller. At least, in China, anyway.
That's where the luxury marque from Nissan will soon be offering the new Infiniti ESQ. The smallest of Infiniti crossovers has been developed in China, exclusively for the Chinese market to meet Chinese tastes. It shares its underpinnings with the Nissan Juke, but instead of starting with the base model, Infiniti China has started with the more potent Juke Nismo - complete with 1.6-liter turbo four producing 197 horsepower - and added on premium accoutrements. The exterior that appears to be differentiated by a new grille and wheels, featuring the ESQ logo instead of Infiniti's, but the same quirky styling that sets the Juke apart. Though all we can of the interior is the steering wheel, you can bet that Infiniti gave the ESQ a more luxurious cabin space, too.
Infiniti's global communications manager Stefan Wienmann told Autoblog that the company is "expanding [its] portfolio not only globally but also specifically in China," adding the ESQ to a market-specific lineup that includes long-wheelbase versions of the Q50 sedan and QX50 crossover. "We see specific sales opportunities in this segment," explains Wienmann, adding that a targeted project like the ESQ "also enables us to gain experience in positioning a new premium model to the 'new millennials', a customer group that is very important to us."
Renault-Nissan zero-emissions car sales whir past 100,000 [w/video]
Tue, 23 Jul 2013The electric vehicle has gone gold at Renault-Nissan, clocking 100,000 sales in a three-year period that began with the first Nissan Leaf being sold in Silicon Valley, California in 2010. Since then, the Leaf has become the EV champion of the world, selling more than 71,000 units so far, the majority of those in the US. The 100,000th EV sold by the Alliance was also a Leaf and also sold in the US, but on the other side of the country, in Georgia.
By comparison, Renault has sold 30,000 electric vehicles since late 2011, looking after other segments of the EV market with the Kangoo Z.E., Zoe, Twizy and Fluence Z.E. The alliance estimates that its efforts have been driven 5.2 million ion-powered miles and saved 14 million gallons of oil since they appeared. For a bit of sobering context, the US averaged 18.83 million barrels of oil per day in 2011, which is almost 791 million gallons. Per day.
So we're getting there, albeit slowly. Quietly. There's a press release and a video below with more details on the achievement.
