The forum is slowly but surely coming alive again. Just working on the database as it was accidentally overwritten by an installation of PHPBB3 going to the wrong directory. It will be up and running again soon, just have to fix the tables. But it will be running PHPBB3 from now on.

Also notice the new menu and categories? Hmmm looks like fun

Stay Tuned!

Ok I’m getting back to work on this site now. Been a while since I’ve touched anything here but I promise to do something about it now. So hang in there for the next couple of weeks will see the site coming back to life!

Finally!

Nothing much has been happening here at Nissan Forums Philippines. Mainly because changes are on their way. The forum is down - an upgrade maybe? The layout is messy - a washover paintjob maybe? There’s nothing new to read - restructured content maybe?

And considering the concept art below, a stretched GT-R looks pretty good. Although the first picture sort of resembles the Chrysler 300 - sort of, and is reminiscent of the R34 Skyline sedan.

Most of you who are really into the GTR scene already know about the recent first ever GTR crash. You may not know that it happened in Hong Kong on Wah Shun Street in a place called Hung Hom on Kowloon Island. Regardless of where in the world it happened, no one should be allowed to drive a car, or any car for that manner, like the Nissan GTR if they dont plan on driving it with respect of local road laws, peoples lives or the car. If the driver of the GTR was reckless when he was behind the wheel of the GTR then he shouldn’t be allowed to drive another car till he proves he’s earned the right to do so again. If it was purely an accident then at least we know the GTR protects its passengers very well. But considering the amount of damage to the front end of the car in the pictures below, the driver must have been going pretty fast when he crashed.
