THE ULTIMATE SLEEPER!
This GTR was sent to Switzer with 11,371 miles on the odometer in mid April 2016. I received the car back in late
July 2016. Since I've had it back, I've put 1,318 miles on it. I have only participated in one event with it, The
Colorado Mile, only taking 7 total runs, on the first cool morning of the event, with all runs before lunch
(actually had the last run before lunch on Friday). The first 5 runs were very easy, shifting at 2K in 1st/2nd
until I hit 3rd to make a good pull to 7K for a good datalog to send back to Swizter for ECU tuning in the 1st,
2nd, and 3rd maps . I then took 2 decent runs (tickets from 2 of those runs shown in photos). I did not launch the
car at the event (haven't since I received it back from Switzer). Am I scared to? Probably. But, this event was
primarily to send datalogs from pulls back to Switzer for final ECU tuning in Colorado. So, I took it easy. I ran
in the under 200mph class (no roll bar, 5 point harness, fire system, etc.) in the full weight car. I had to back
off in both runs as not to brake out of the class limit, still did with a 203. You can check the Colorado Mile web
site for the results. You can see by the second ticket in the photo that I was quicker in the 1/4 and 1/2, but
ended slower top speed than the 203 run. I actually hit 210 at about 7/8 mile and fully let off on that run.
Didn't want to get kicked from the event. Car ran very fast being that I really didn't push it, or launch it, and
the Front Range Airport is at 5,500 feet! This car has the 13th fastest car speed at the Colorado Mile in the last
2-years (event started in 2015), but it is actually quicker as mentioned. It would easily be in the top 3-5 if it
had the safety equipment, used the R888's, actually launched the vehicle, and ran the 100 Maps as well! Beast!
But, best part about the car, drove it to the track and drove it home. This is a daily driver if desired. This
thing would be phenomenal to drive at Sea Level (Texas Mile!).
Too note, I haven't even tested the 100 Octane maps yet!
This car has been inspected recently and serviced by Boulder Nissan. Boulder Nissan has serviced the vehicle since
I've had it the past year+, and even after the build (general items, oil changes (I supply the Switzer spec'd oil
and filter to them)). The Brembo Carbon/Ceramic kit was purchased from Switizer, but installed by Auto Trends in
Fort Collins, CO. Went to HPR once to bed in the Carbon Ceramic brakes.
To build a car like this you would need to spend $70-85K on newer used GTR, over $80k on the complete build, and
have a minimum 3-4 month wait time for the build. So, instead of waiting for you GTR to be built, I suggest you
pick up my extremely clean, "lighlty" tested, and beyond fast 2015 GTR BE. It is sitting in my garage under its
heavy duty car cover currently, just waiting for you!
Besides the info below, I am currently running Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2's (stock sizing) with less than 500 miles
on them. Additionally, I have brand new Toyo R888's (Front 285/35R20 100Y, Rear 315/30R20 101Y), that I planned
to use at next summers 1/2 Mile Airstrip Attack in Colorado Springs, and an additional set of Continentals (Stock

FCA-Renault merger talks: France wants job guarantees and Nissan on board
Tue, May 28 2019PARIS — France will seek protection of local jobs and other guarantees in exchange for supporting a merger between carmakers Renault and Fiat Chrysler, its finance minister said on Tuesday, underscoring the challenges facing the plan. Renault Chairman Jean-Dominique Senard arrived in Japan to discuss the proposed tie-up with the French company's existing partner Nissan — another potential obstacle to the $35 billion-plus merger of equals. Renault and Italian-American rival Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) are in talks to tackle the costs of far-reaching technological and regulatory changes by creating the world's third-biggest automaker. Nissan found out about Renault's merger talks with Fiat Chrysler only days before they became public, four sources told Reuters, stoking fears at the Japanese carmaker that a deal could further weaken its position in a 20-year alliance with Renault. A deal between Renault and FCA would create a player ranked behind only Japan's Toyota and Germany's Volkswagen and target 5 billion euros ($5.6 billion) a year in savings. Some analysts, however, say the companies face a challenge to win over powerful stakeholders ranging from the French and Italian governments to trade unions and Nissan. Patrick Pelata, a former Renault chief operating officer, also criticized the deal plan for undervaluing Renault and threatening to overstretch its engineering resources. By valuing Renault at its market price, the all-share offer attributes a negative 6 billion euro value to Renault operations after deduction of its 43.4% stake in Nissan and 3.1% Daimler holding, Pelata told BFM radio. "That's hardly reasonable," he said. "And I think that shareholders, including the French state, are bound to take issue with this sooner or later." Pelata added: "FCA has big problem because they haven't invested for the future — they have no electric vehicle platform and they've done nothing in autonomous cars." French finance minister Bruno Le Maire told RTL radio on Tuesday that the plan was a good opportunity for both Renault and the European car industry, which has been struggling for years with overcapacity and subdued demand. France sets conditions Le Maire also said the French government would seek four guarantees in exchange for backing a deal that would reduce its 15% stake in Renault to 7.5% of the combined entity. "The first: industrial jobs and industrial sites.
Ghosn: Low oil prices won't hurt EVs much
Mon, Jan 26 2015Carlos Ghosn might be the most unflappable automotive CEO around. Despite lower gas prices and signs that these prices do impact green vehicle sales, the CEO of the Renault-Nissan Alliance was at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland this weekend saying that people will continue to buy electric vehicles. "I don't think it is going to be slowing down," he said. "The people who are buying mainly for economic reasons may be deterred from it, but you have plenty of consumers buying EV for other reasons. On top of this, even though the price of oil is unpredictable – nobody has predicted last year that we would be at this level of oil price today and nobody knows where oil price will be next year or two years down the road – but what is predictable is that the regulation on emissions is going to get tougher in the various markets where we are present. So, our EV strategy is here not only to face too much dependence on oil or the cost of oil, but also to allow us to meet the very stringent regulations on emissions that are happening and will be happening in the future. So I can bet you that more and more car makers are coming to EVs and they're going to continue to build and sell EVs, even though the price of oil is coming down."

Automakers can, and do, use your private information however they want
Wed, Sep 6 2023The first paragraph of Mozilla’s *Privacy Not Included" buyerÂ’s guide about car privacy issues is worth repeating here: “Ah, the wind in your hair, the open road ahead, and not a care in the world Â… except all the trackers, cameras, microphones, and sensors capturing your every move. Ugh. Modern cars are a privacy nightmare.” “Ugh” may be an understatement. The crux of the matter is control: The nonprofit Mozilla Foundation has found that vehicle manufacturers have collected tons of “private” data from vehicle operators, thanks to the proliferation of sensors and cameras and smartphones connected in and to cars. In its report, Mozilla found that 25 car brands all failed the consumer privacy tests it carried out. Its research found that 84 percent of car companies review, share or sell data collected from car owners, and that the information was used for reasons unrelated to the operation of a vehicle or to a car brandÂ’s relationship with its owners. And beyond that, the report says that many companies — more than half — “say they can share your information with the government or law enforcement in response to a 'request.' Not a high bar court order, but something as easy as an 'informal request.'” Some other points made by the foundation: — Six car companies can collect intimate information, including a driverÂ’s medical information and genetic information. Plus info about how fast a person drives and the songs he listens to in the car. — Nissan earned its second-to-last spot (Tesla, not surprisingly, was worst) “for collecting some of the creepiest categories of data we have ever seen": In an apparent attack of full disclosure, Nissan said that it can share “inferences” drawn from the data to create profiles “reflecting the consumerÂ’s preferences, characteristics, psychological trends, predispositions, behavior, attitudes, intelligence, abilities, and aptitudes.” It also collects information about “sexual activity.” It's not clear how they can do that, but in their privacy notice they say they could. Not to be outdone, the report says, “Kia also mentions they can collect information about your 'sex life' in their privacy policy.” — Only two of the 25 brands reviewed, Renault and Dacia, stated that drivers had the right to delete their personal data. The brands are headquartered in Europe, where consumers are protected by General Data Protection Regulation privacy laws.
