That moment when you aren't over 35, don't understand japanese and weren't even planning to go to Japan do drive a GT-R for free at Nissan HQ, but you still get kind of mad for not meeting the requirements... -.-'

[@mrchao08]

How did I only come across this channel?! Good to see you're still active in the automotive scene Alexi as I very much enjoyed reading your articles for Hot4s magazine as well as the odd DVD feature back in the day. You have my sub, keep up the great vids!

[@Hillzy_Eighty7]

Living the dream Alexi!

[@browbutter9937]

Loving the vids man. Have always been into Aussie classic cars and after watching most of your videos Iv started to really like jdm car now. Keep it up man👍

I visited the Nissan Gallery last April (2015) and was unable to drive because I got there too late! It's an amazing experience, and checking out the Toyota MegaWeb collection was awesome as well!

[@Fl4the4d]

Awesome! thanks for a great video again))

[@laytonsri150]

That 2017 GTR looked so good in that Gold colour :)

[@BundSama]

I was there last Jan, really nice place, very nice people, gave me some stickers and a some other souvenirs.

[@DSHanska]

Aahhhh the Nissan Gallery gave me chills and a small tear rolled down my cheek when I saw the old Sunny and Hakosuka. Not saying I`m a Nissan fan but damn I wanna go there :(

[@CarAndMechanical]

Bet that Leaf Video was super short, my friends Renault Zoe is a 90hp EV but they are heavy. Off the line to 30mph they are crazy as all the torque is instant. I'm willing to bet the 180 pulled back in the top end of first gear.

[@nelsondx8054]

I'd laugh my ass off if you started drifting with the staff guy next to you lol. Anyways, great video as always!

[@slowrps13]

Makes me happy knowing theres something Im not old enough to do..

!!!!! i've been there on my trip to Japan back in 2010.. they were closed on the day though. There was a gorgeous 240z on display too.

[@DubUilly]

You are my hero for trying to start the Z.

[@Mike-zl4km]

cant belive i missed that place when i was in yokohama. came there by a ship car carrier and obly stayed for 8 hours during night so it was closed!! but hey lot of car meets in the port area! gonna go back one day!

[@hammer2787]

i am learning japanese just because of this

[@doodlepugg]

That KPGC10 at the entrance is what I'd be staring at! also, that little electric car is a Renault Twizzy. Here the UK the roadworks guys get to use them to escort traffic through where they're working.

Did not know about the gallery at Nissan. So much I missed, went to the Toyota museum during silver week..

Honestly, that looks much better than the Toyota Kaikan experience. That place is much more of a school trip atmosphere.

Nice episode i love this R32 GTr

[@Baker_7498]

2:15 The R32 GT-R NISMO was the homologation model for Group A racing. They didn't make them in blue though, I think only gunmetal grey.

[@hawker05]

I went to the Nissan Gallery a few years back and unfortunately there was not even a GTR to look at. Still a cool place plus Autobacs is a short walk down the road

[@will_hyde]

Pretty cool having a test drive in a car like that, Can't say a lot of manufacturers would let you test their new top spec car

[@af09cooper]

Randomly walking around with my friend I ended up walking through this place through the walkway up above, pretty rad place. Was right before the new GT-R launch so not much interesting stuff there.

[@cfvgd]

really liked the video. epic. thank you

[@darkslide0909]

lmao idk why s13's are so popular when they get beat by nissan leaf's. imma drift a leaf now

[@kohi3302]

Travis Hall its not an s13 its a 180sx

[@TheWierdFish]

S13 is the base part of the chassis code for a 180SX. Probably an RS13, with the CA18 engine. R denoting hatchback. Doubt an RPS13, with the SR20 would even think of losing.

[@dln.sweeney]

All 180s are S13s.

[@Designandrew]

2:39 Alexi can I please have permission to draw this angle of this skyline, you have a great photographers eye for composition

[@mas921]

that ending though, AMEN!!

[@metaomicron72]

Alexi, make a walkaround video of your van! We in Europe (and probably all the world besides Japan) dont have those types of cars! SO we can see the interior and space on the back ;D

[@jkflorida]

Nissan should sponsor you! Great video!

[@OverdriveMediaNZ]

The R32 GT-R Nismo was a homologtion model for certain exterior changes for the Group A cars, and were only sold in Grey. So this has either been resprayed or is not a genuine Nismo.

[@2000lakay]

5:21 you made my day i knew you would try that...

When I was there last year, they were displaying 2 Prince R381 at the current place where the sunnys were placed

That Electric mini 1 Seat thingy is basically a Renault twizzy, pretty fun little "Car" but has no Heater ;)

[@floofymcnuggets_2373]

I love that place, when I was there they had the r 35 nismo edition on display, but they didn't let you sit in them.

[@CzorHD]

Wow every thing I look at makes me wanna buy this Datsun 120y I seen :( it's only 1500 and clean asf. Should I buy it?

[@Frankensteincze]

Alexi can you please post a name of the song you used as a background music when you entered the gallery ? :)

lmao, when you said the 180 would never lose against that car. Should of asked nissan bout that ad haha

[@zm2y611]

I went 2 times to Tokyo and could never find a place to see some Nissan :/ I goes at Ginza station 'cause apperently there was a Nissan museum there but not anymore (and they didn't removed it from Google Maps). The only museum I saw was Toyota's MEGAWEB and museum at Odaiba (Aomi station) and it was pretty good ;)

[@kaarelolen]

Ending is the best. Those electric cars are death traps, i almost got run over by one coming behind a garage, just could not hear it. Needs like a stick in the wheels like kids use for their bicycles. Good for drive by-s tho. Nice vid! Greets from Estonia :)

+effectsbykaarel How about making a transmission mandatory, with straight-cut gears. it'll sound like a gigantic R/C car.

Electric cars can be pretty cool... but the Leaf? Yeah, it ain't one of 'em. But Tesla's got a good idea of how to do it, and there are some pretty cool conversions out there. Still, without the petrol sound, I don't know if I'll ever love them quite the same.

This gu deserves more views and more subscribers! But then again quality over quantity =)

i was here last year, when they hosted the r33 LM and the r390. test drove the nismo note, but I am not 35 so no GTR :( awesome vid it brings me back!

[@jovialvibes5962]

oh alexi you should see if they are doing the Grandrive event this year. I did this last summer, you get to go to their test track in yokosuka and test drive new cars plus a lap in the GTR where they drive you around (unfortunately) at high speeds ;P

[@nathanwrightmedia161]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I am pretty sure that the R32 GT-R Nismo Editions only came in that grey colour Nissan uses? That blue one might be a respray if I am not wrong.

[@likeitraf]

+Nathan Wright that is right. The owner donated the car to the museum after he change the colour.

[@jackington5183]

did you see any Stagea 260RS's? i have one in Australia and i have always wondered what the Japanese think of them
