R32 Skyline Commercials

So i was digging around on youtube and came across a few old (read: 1989) commercials for the, then new, r32.

Theres a few filmed in Japan but theres a few that seem to have been filmed in a desert with some serious mountains in the background. It looks strikingly like California, minus the space themed skybox.

Theres even a commercial thats introduced by a "John Dachner" who apparently directed the SFX for the commercial? He seems to be American or possibly Canadian.

I was wondering if anyone here has any information about all this? I realize its a bit of a longshot but im curious. It would be kind of neat if the commercials were shot in Cali all those years ago and an R32 in fact did make it here even if temporarily!

If you're gonna make a post about YouTube vids how about linking them?

Probably a good idea haha!

So apart from the cosmic skybox the background itself looks pretty real, ie, its a real location with some fx painted in.

You watched the glory of Nissan's "Feel The Beat" slogan pushed through 1988/1989 computer technology and... well i suspect some acid.
