    Dodson makes some of the best bike transmissions for gtr’s. Upwards of 2000hp in some builds. VERY well known in the gtr community. This was the buy of the year for you I’m sure. $46k for a lightly modded gtr with a built trans leaves a fair amount of funding for maybe some 6266 snails (1000hp+ maybe?) and fueling system. I love how far your channel has come in the multiple years I’ve been watching. You give me old school power block feels from spike tv. PLEASE don’t ever go mainstream production and lose this feel.

    Canadian here (and have brought cars in from the states). Yep DRL required up here to be enabled at import. Also since it was an American car brought into Canada it likely had the cluster swapped since the speedo also had to be converted since the speedo was in km. Govt requires you to put cheesy stickers on the speedo with the new numbers but most people replace the cluster. The cluster likely did the Imperial to metric odometer conversion internally and won't display the Imperial so you can't falsely display it lower. If you swap back for a Imperial cluster it'll probably show the right mileage.

I am coming back into the car scene after 18 years (kids/money/priorities) and the end of the video piqued my interest further. Very cool that you were recognized by the GTR transmission specialist on the call. I subscribed for a variety of reasons. Not just because of your talents but also because I need to refine my plans to capture a mass audience as I step back into the scene which is night/day different than it was in 2005.

    As a Canadian, yes daytime running lights are required by law but the way they are implemented differs from model to model. Many of them can be turned off when parked, on the GTR they turn off when the headlights are on, though there is a common mod to prevent that.

    As someone who works at carvana. Number one they have very little time to diagnose and inspect vehicles so I makes sense that they would get the mileage wrong.
