The recent “Undas” week gave us all the chance to reflect not only about those who have left us, but also about our own lives. For those who stayed in Metro Manila, it has been a pleasant mix of clear roads, good weather and occasional rain showers. And for those who drove out of town, it was a chance to spend up to a week away from the hustle and bustle of city life. It really makes you wonder about what the Philippines would be like if economic development were spread all throughout the archip

The R35 Nissan GT-R is turning 16 years old on December 2023. Put another way, the legendary Japanese supercar has been in production longer than all of its all-wheel-drive Skyline GT-R predecessors combined (the range was produced from 1989 to 2002). Although the R35 still has what it takes to do battle with the latest European supercars, its time will eventually come to an end.

The last of its ki

I’m more of a tuning kind of guy, and I purchase aesthetic and functional mods to make my driving more satisfying. I want my cars to ride smoothly for everyday driving while handling sharply on sweeping bends and tight corners. I like to lower a vehicle to reduce car lean while cornering hard and to make them look good to my eyes. But I'm also not too fond of crashy suspensions and those that hop over bumps because they lack travel and have springs that are as stiff as a sore neck. In the same w

The 2024 Nissan GT-R was unveiled at the 2023 Tokyo Auto Salon with a new Premium T-Spec model and Nismo Special Editions. The 2024 GT-R also received reworked aerodynamics from redesigned bumpers and a new wing. Aside from this, the performance car gets a new exhaust system designed for better flow and quietness. The Nissan GT-R may be an old-timer in the performance car world, but it's still going strong, especially with these recent minor updates. Reworked styling and aerodynamics The 2024 Ni
