9. 1999-2002 Skyline R34

The Ultimate Nissan

Nissan's top-of-the-line sports car from 1999-2002 was the R34 Skyline. Sleek Japanese styling and lots of turbocharged V6 power made it a real screamer.

10. 1959-1970 Datsun 1500

The Japanese Roadster

Nissan produced this nicely styled roadster for 11 years and sold around 40,000 of them. While not an all-out sports car, the 1500 provided an affordable ride in the sun.

Check Your Tires

Tires are one of the most overlooked parts of a car. According the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA), only one out of 10 drivers checks his or her tire pressure correctly, compared with almost seven out of 10 who wash their cars regularly. But the truth is that an under-inflated, over-inflated, worn down or misaligned tire can be extremely dangerous, particularly in hot summer weather.

Tire pressure changes with the rising temperatures -- approximately one to two PSI (pounds per square inch) for every 10-degree increase in outside air temperature. Consult your owner's manual or the sidewall of your tire to see what your tire pressure should be and check it with a hand pressure gauge or just let the guys at the service shop do it for you.

An under-inflated tire bulges outward and puts undo pressure on the sidewalls of the tire. With enough heat and pressure, that tire eventually will blow. An over-inflated tire, on the other hand, makes less contact with the road and can lead to hydroplaning in wet conditions.

Use the penny trick to see if you still have enough tread on your tires. Stick a penny in the tread, and if Lincoln's head disappears, you're good. Your local service shop or specialty tire store can also check your tires for proper alignment and balance.

And don't forget about your spare! There's no point in having a spare tire if your spare is in worse condition than the rest. Make sure the spare is properly inflated and has ample tread depth.

Clean the inside, too

Vacuum and sponge your interior every time you wash your car. Dirt particles are abrasive, and spilled liquids, such as soda, can be corrosive.Vacuum your interior thoroughly with a powerful vacuum (small cordless models are generally too weak). Use the appropriate wand heads when vacuuming. The bare metal wand can mar and scratch surfaces. Sponge vinyl surfaces clean with a solution of mild detergent and water.

Drive with care everyday

Being car considerate shouldn’t stop after the break-in. Drive with care every day and your car will reward you with longer intervals without repair.
  • Do not race your car’s engine during start-up.This is a quick way to add years of wear to your engine, especially if it’s cold outside.
  • Accelerate slowly when you begin your drive.The most wear to the engine and drive train occurs in the first ten to twenty minutes of operation.
  • Warming the engine by letting it idle in the driveway is not a smart idea.The engine doesn’t operate at its peak temperature, resulting in incomplete fuel combustion, soot deposits on cylinder walls, oil contamination, and ultimately damaged components.
  • Put less strain on your engine and automatic transmission by shifting to neutral at red lights. Otherwise, the engine is still working to push the car even while it’s stopped.
  • Avoid driving at high speeds and accelerating quickly, especially when it’s very hot or very cold outside. Such driving behavior will result in more frequent repairs.
  • Extend the life of your tires with careful driving. Observe posted speed limits. Avoid fast starts, stops, and turns. Avoid potholes and objects on the road. Don’t run over curbs or hit the tire against the curb when parking. And, of course, don’t burn rubber.
  • When turning your steering wheel, don’t hold it in an extreme right or left position for more than a few seconds. Doing so can damage the power-steering pump.
  • Consolidate your short driving trips. Most of the wear and tear — as well as the pollution your car generates — takes place in the first few minutes of driving. Doing several errands at once, during low traffic hours if possible, will keep your engine happier longer.

V8 Supercars: Nissan to join series in 2013

Nissan to race in V8 Supercars
It's not known whether Nissan will compete with the GT-R. Earlier generations of the GT-R dominated the series in the early 1990s.

Nissan on Thursday revealed that it will return to Australia's V8 Supercars Championship in 2013 after a 20-year hiatus.
The Japanese automaker last competed in the series in 1992, winning the championship for the third consecutive season, as well as the famous Bathurst 1000. In total, Nissan won 28 races during the 1980s and early 1990s. But a rules change beginning in the 1993 season outlawing turbocharged cars made the Nissan Skyline GT-R models ineligible and forced Nissan to exit the series, leaving Supercars' present-day manufacturers, Ford and Holden, to duke it out.
Nissan will join the series in 2013 when the new Car of the Future rules are put into practice. The new rules call for a spec chassis and other components to help control the cost. But the series says each car will be identified distinctly as a Ford, a Holden or a Nissan and will closely resemble their road-car counterparts. The new rules are intended to make it easier for manufacturers to join the V8 Supercars Championship.
“Nissan believes that, alongside Ford and Holden, we possess the most convincing motorsport DNA and track history in Australia, making a V8 Supercars Championship debut in 2013 an obvious initiative,” CEO and managing director of Nissan Australia Dan Thompson told V8supercars.com. “We are targeting No. 1 importer status in Australia and already making progress towards that as one of the country's fastest-growing brands. V8 Supercars will boost that momentum.”
V8 Supercars chairman Tony Cochrane added, “We welcome Nissan with more than open arms. This announcement ratifies all we have known about V8 Supercars for a long time—that we are an international player, a growing following globally and in great demand by big business and corporate players.”
Kelly Racing will be Nissan's factory team and will have the full support of the Nismo Nissan Motorsport organization. The team will run four cars, two of which will be driven by co-owners Todd and Rick Kelly.
“I couldn't be more excited with the opportunity Nissan has offered Todd, myself and the entire team at Kelly Racing to become their official factory team,” Rick Kelly said. “Nissan's genuine enthusiasm, unwavering support and absolute professionalism through this evaluation has been tremendous and underpins their absolute intentions of championship success in the category—a dream we share and hope to deliver on.”
Nissan will announce its car and engine package at a later date.
