At this point, it isn't even about rose-tinted glasses anymore - the 1980s and 1990s were good times for sports cars. Nissan seems to agree, if their fully-restored R32 Nissan Skyline GT-R is anything to go by. Recently, Nismo (Nissan's sporting arm, Nissan Motorsports International) opened their Nismo 'Restored Car' division, with the first product on their catalogue being this 'Godzilla' R32 GT-R. If you've somehow missed the whole hullabaloo about it, here's a quick low-down: the project esse

The Nissan Z Proto is a perfect mixture of past Z cars (or as Chief Designer at Nissan, Alfonso Albaisa called it, memories) and the future of Nissan. Some people might say it is merely an evolution of the 370Z but clearly, there is more to that. In fact, it is probably a better reworking of what Nissan had done a little over 20 years ago with a Z concept also known as the 240Z Concept. Things weren’t doing so well financially for Nissan in the late nineties. Sure, the Skyline GT-R was about to

The Nissan GT-R R35 is ancient in terms of modern car life cycles. It has been through 4 American Presidents, 4 Malaysian Prime Ministers, and numerous iterations of the iPhone. While its competitors have all gotten new generations, the Godzilla has been marching on since 2007 with a recent update launched in 2017. However, according to a scoop by Japanese media, Nissan is planning for the next-gen GT-R to be launched in 2025. According to information obtained by Best Car Web, Nissan has plans f

Dengan beransurnya teknologi kereta elektrik (EV) dan denda untuk ekzos bising di Malaysia, nampaknya dunia automotif kini cenderung ke arah sesuatu yang lebih senyap. Apapun, tuner HKS dari Jepun ingin perbetulkan ajaran ‘sesat’ ini dengan perkenalkan kit ekzos untuk Toyota Corolla Cross. Kejap. HKS???

HKS has showcased a new line of products for JDM enthusiasts, the “HKS Advanced Heritage”. Due to high customer demand, they have introduced a modernization package for the R32 Nissan Skyline GT-R RB26 engine, the “RB26 Advanced Heritage”. By “modernization” we mean providing immense power, whilst still complying to Japan’s latest emission regulation and being somewhat fuel efficient. With the Advanced Heritage package, it is claimed that 600 PS could be extracted from the classic inline-6 engin

We’re all well acquainted with the Nissan Leaf, the first-ever mass-market electric vehicle (EV) with an unbeatable range and affordable price (at least not in Malaysia). In other words, a boring EV car. But Nissan is out to prove that the Leaf is not just more reliable than a Tesla but can be just as exciting with this very unique sprint race. In a video uploaded on Nissan’s official YouTube channel, the Nissan Leaf challenged mother nature’s fastest elements, the wind and fire, to a 0-100 km/h

You're looking at what Nissan's flagship sports car would look like and not only does it look tantalising but so are the specs: Mid-engine, V6-powered, and rear-wheel drive. Are we looking at Nissan's comeback? While last year's Nissan Z Proto brought much excitement to car enthusiasts all over the world, that is clearly an appetiser of exciting things to come from the beleaguered Japanese giant according to Japanese media. The idea of a mid-engine Nissan flagship isn’t brand-new though. More th

It appears that Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM), the official importer and distributor of Nissan vehicles in Malaysia, will be introducing the new Nissan Terra in the near future, as spyshots of the model have surfaced. According to an anonymous reader that sent these photos in, the Nissan Terra was spotted somewhere along Lebuhraya Sultan Iskandar. Our reader also added that this particular Terra is wearing a VL 4x4 emblem, indicating that it is a top spec 4x4 model. Power for the Nissan Terra co

Nissan's car manufacturing history dates back to 1914, making it one of Japan’s oldest. Between the ‘60s until the ‘90s, Nissan was Japan’s most technologically advanced. When Toyota and Honda entered the car business in 1936 and 1962 respectively, Nissan was No.1. Today, it’s the weakest in Japan. It's a sad turn of events for the company that made the first Japanese car fast enough to beat a Porsche – at the 1966 Japanese Grand Prix, two R380s took the top two spots, ahead of three Porsche 906

The C-segment SUV market is surely one of the most competitive in Malaysia. With almost every major carmaker offering one, it’s not hard to see why these are gaining popularity among Malaysians. They are spacious and practical for a growing family, with some even offering 7 seats. Plus, with a higher driving position, it’s probably an ideal vehicle for those who wish to command more presence on the road. But while practicality and size are determining factors in getting a C-segment SUV, another

Nissan has taken the covers off the all-new 2020 Nissan Sylphy for the North American market, where the model is known as the Sentra.

The all-new Sylphy gets a new 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder petrol engine that does 149 hp and 198 Nm. The Nissan Sylphy was last sold in Malays

Just a few days back, my colleague Arif opined that the world doesn't need manual cars anymore. Chaos ensued, tables and chairs were thrown in the office (some were thrown in Adrian's direction too, for saying this). After the dust has settled, I'm happy to report that we're all still friends and colleagues (I was forced to type this). Jokes aside, I am only too aware of the passage of progress, and Arif does have valid points about the need to continue moving forward. Electric cars and autonomo

Malaysians are bound to welcome a slew of new pick-up trucks this year, and one of them is the 2021 Nissan Navara NP300 (D23) facelift that was spotted recently. The photo - shared to us by a WapCar.my reader - gives us a closer look at the updated pick-up truck. Looking at the chrome grille garnish and dual-tone wheels, this appears to be the VL 4WD variant. Another clue to that is the '4WD' decal on the rear quarter panel - a trait we noticed on the last spyshot. Also read: Spied: 2021 Nissan

The Nissan Z Proto has won itself many fans and the change in narrative is nice for a company that has been dragged through the mud by the legal tussle involving ex-CEO Carlos Ghosn. As much as we love the Nissan Z Proto, it is important to remember that the car has yet to enter production but keep your fingers crossed because Nissan has repeatedly mentioned that it is committed to producing the Z Proto. However what many forgot is that the new Nissan Z won’t be launched in Europe, or even the U

If you love cars and is planning a trip to Japan, you should pay a visit to Toyota’s MegaWeb store in the Odaiba district of Tokyo. It’s a sprawling multi-storey brand experience centre. There’s also a heritage collection section where expert Toyota ‘Takumis’ (expert craftsmen) restores various classic cars, including non-Toyota models. Part of the MegaWeb store is to promote the love for cars and appreciation for car culture, and the gregarious Toyota is generous enough to spend some resources

Nissan Indonesia isn’t done yet with 2020 as they have just teased the pending arrival of the new 2021 Nissan Magnite. The Nissan Magnite is a sub-4-metre compact SUV that slots below the Nissan Kicks and powered by a 1.0-litre turbocharged engine. Though Nissan did not clearly confirm that the car in question is the Nissan Magnite but considering that the Nissan Kicks is already on sale in Indonesia, the only other compact SUV the company currently has in their arsenal is Magnite. Other than th

Sejarah pembuatan kereta Nissan boleh dikesan balik seawal 1914, membuatkannya salah satu yang tertua di Jepun. Antara era 60-an hingga 90-an, Nissan adalah pembuat kereta Jepun yang paling berteknologi tinggi. Apabila Toyota dan Honda menceburi industri pembuatan kereta pada tahun 1936 dan 1962 masing-masing, Nissan berada di tempat teratas. Hari ini, Nissan adalah yang paling lemah di Jepun. Bagi sebuah kereta Jepun yang cukup pantas sehingga boleh mengalahkan Porsche, statusnya amat menyedihk

While many car fans recognise the legend of the first Honda NSX and how it beat the mighty Ferrari, it was another Japanese carmaker that first gave the Italian stallion a scare. Nissan produced not one, but two supercar concepts that were ready to fight against the Italian but sadly pulled the plug. With reports of Nissan looking to launch a mid-engine 3.0-litre V6 flagship sports car in 2024, we decide to take a look back at Nissan’s first attempts at a flagship sports car, the MID4 concepts.

The concept of buying a car on Lazada is still foreign to most of us, but now Volkswagen Malaysia has taken yet another unconventional step with an Instagram-exclusive car sale in conjunction with the 12.12 sale. 12 units of the VW Polo with JOIN accessories and 12 units of the VW Beetle with free spoiler and VW Tint will be up on sale on Volkswagen Malaysia’s Instagram profile with a RM 12,000 discount.

The pick-up truck battle rages on with the introduction of the facelifted 2021 Nissan Navara in November 2020. The outgoing D23-generation Navara is almost sold out in Malaysia, and the new 2021 model is expected to be launched here soon. Sources close to the matter at hand have informed WapCar.my that stocks of the current-gen Navara here are almost sold out, which is an indication that the refreshed version is coming.

If you’re in the market for the current-generation Nissan Almera, we reckon that you should postpone your purchase for a bit as the all-new Almera will be coming to Malaysia, with the soonest being late-2020 or early-2021.

In a world that's increasingly quiet - advent of electric vehicles (EVs) and fines for loud exhausts in Malaysia, as examples - Japanese tuner HKS attempts to set the world straight again with their exhaust kit for the Toyota Corolla Cross. Wait, THE HKS? Yes, the real-deal HKS - purveyors of many cool cars and projects over the years, including updating the R32 Nissan Skyline GT-R's RB26DETT mill to produce 600 PS yet still return a claimed fuel efficiency figure of 5 litres/100 km.
