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

2013 Nissan Pathfinder: Wrap-Up [w/video]
Tue, 13 May 2014Despite our tendency as enthusiasts to clamor for things like wagons and hot hatchbacks, it's hard to argue with the buying public's increasing demand for functional crossovers. In fact, the great SUV craze of the late-1990s has all but faded in favor of the easier-driving, better-packaged, more-efficient crossover. That's even true at the larger end of the market - just look at what happened when Ford redesigned its body-on-frame Explorer into a stylish and well-equipped CUV. And now look at the similar success Nissan has had in repurposing its rugged Pathfinder sport-ute as an appealing crossover.
But happily, we report the following line: out of every long-term vehicle Autoblog has ever tested, not a single one has been as in-demand as the 2013 Pathfinder Platinum you see here. After 13 months of solid use, we added 24,372 miles to the Pfinder's odometer - and that's without the vehicle ever leaving the hands of our Detroit-based team (sorry, West Coasters).
There's good reason for that high-demand usage, too. After spending a little over a year with our Mocha Stone tester (a color that earned this Nissan the nickname "Sweet Brown") we came to appreciate its vast versatility, comfort, all-weather prowess, and the way it absolutely ate up the miles on long trips. We drove it all over the United States, in all four seasons, filling it with our families, friends, and occasionally using its capacious cabin for sleeping on the road. Through good and bad, the Pathfinder was a trusty friend. But like any good friendship, that wasn't without a couple of fights.
2013 Nissan Leaf [w/video]
Thu, 16 May 2013If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It
Look at the 2013 Nissan Leaf - even one parked next to a 2012 model - and you'll be hard-pressed to spot the differences. Changes and updates have been made, but you have to know the details to tell. It's sort of like listening to a hipster tell you why Interpol and The National have completely different sounds.
Nissan says it didn't reinvent the Leaf because what the company has created is working. Over 25,000 Leafs have been sold in the US - 62,000 around the world - since the car went on sale in late 2010. That may not sound like a lot, but it's heads and shoulders above any other all-electric car available anywhere. The car has its detractors - boy, does it ever - but Nissan knows it's hard to argue with real-world success.
Ghosn predicts autonomous cars on the roads by 2018, if laws allow
Thu, 05 Jun 2014Things appear to be going well inside Nissan's autonomous vehicle development program. Until now, the automaker believed that self-driving cars would be ready for major markets like the US by 2020. However, Renault-Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn is now speeding up that prediction to 2018 in some places, assuming that local laws are ready to accept the computer-controlled vehicles.
"The problem isn't technology, it's legislation, and the whole question of responsibility that goes with these cars moving around," said Ghosn in a speech in France recorded by Reuters. He predicted that the first sales could begin in France, Japan and the US by 2018 and expand elsewhere in 2020.
The alliance has been among the forefront of automakers working on self-driving cars. Nissan has an autonomous Leaf (pictured above) test car that is licensed to drive on Japanese roads. Renault showed off an version of its Zoe EV earlier this year called the Next Two, that could pilot itself at speeds up to 18 miles per hour, and that the company predicted would be ready by 2020.
