Well he better stick to the speed limit since he's in a bit of trouble for admitting he was driving 300km/h on public roads

zif clarkson pushed 300kph on a public road... he would be dead. find me a public road straight enough for long enough for this to be physically possible.

autobahns arent straight enough for that long a punch surely..?

i have seen vids of R34 GTR'S on the autobahn holding 320kmh for like 30-40 seconds so its possable but not likely clarkson can do it.

Be sure to check Final Gear for the Top Gear Season 11 Episode 4 Torrent on Monday morning.

On Sunday night, there is a race between a Nissan GT-R and a bullet train right the way across Japan.

It is extremely exciting. I think the best film we've ever made.

Shit, as they say, is on.

I can't speak for anywhere else but there are plenty of places in the nt you can go as fast as you want as long as you want. I used to do the 100klm commute from town to the base in about 32 minutes, sitting on the speed limiter 99% of the way

Theres plenty of places here in Japan to do 300kph..think about the 300 club for a start.Do a bit of digging around on youtube and you`ll see a few of the top car tuners having a crack. I`m not saying its safe or condoning it but it gets done and quite a bit.

Also cops here have skylines and wrx`s.

season 11 is already out, they have shown the first 3 episodes already in the UK

the challenges aren't really anything good this time

and yea the african episode was the best, hammond actually imported his car back to the UK to keep it lol

just watched the torrent. a little dissappointing. although found all the problems they had funny.

Both sides also had some help which I thought was a little unfair. eg jeremy didnt have to worry about paying with money on the tollways*he used the cars electronic ic card) , where as the others didnt get help with their transfers

Ive never seen those Tokyo roads that quiet in the 5 years ive been living here.

I also laughed when jeremy put the headband on his had because it was upside to start with... then in the next scene it had magically changed.

I also like seeing some of the very stations/ escalators I use each and everyday.

    • Gucci bags tend to hold their value well, so someone’s definitely going to get a nice find here.
    • @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑
    • I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed    
    • All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?
    • It seems you'd like your Skyline to go to a great home, that can keep it as a beautiful museum piece.  I feel I can provide the perfect place for it, however, I'm not sure I can justify so much money for a Skyline that has only been crashed 3 times. Due to this and market prices, would you be against me buying it for $100.00, with $60 to be paid upfront, and the remaining $40 to be paid annually in equal payments?
