I appreciate Alex showing the process of overcoming challenging issues. He doesn't just go from broken to fixed, making it look like he knows it all. He shows his thought process, each of his fails to fix and finally arriving at the solution. It encourages backyard mechanics to keep trying and how to go about problem solving. Not everything works out on the first try. Many thanks, Alex, for your honesty and integrity.

I really like this channel, dude is smart, likable, and makes a nice video with a lot of detail and no stupid cliff hangers or drama. I also like that he doesn't talk bad about everyone and everything to try and make himself seem so smart, his work shows that.

Alex, I've gotta say. You're probably my favorite hands on automotive YouTuber. Your filming style, explanations, and willingness to be transparent with your audience is just great. Plus you sharing your knowledge is fantastic. Can't say thank you enough. Look forward to every Sat. morning.

I love your content so much. A TRUE car enthusiast. Not just a chevy or a Ford guy. Just a guy who loves all cool cars. Mercedes, turbo trans am, DeLorean and even DSM and GTRs... I always get excited when I get a notification for a legitstreetcars video. Makes my day.

I can speak for everyone when I say there are LITERALLY NO FLAWS the channel. Combination of content NEVER boring moment. The learning curve of the crucial info as minimal or big it's all so helpful. You are blessed, my brother . Wish the very best to you and your family and crew to the channel. Take care and keep being you. God bless.

Keep this GTR on the channel... the upgrades are nearly endless. My 17 year old and I bought a 2014 with 1, 800 miles on it and having a blast with the car.

[LongTimeAgoNL]

Out of all the lemons of people who treated their GTR's poorly... This one is an absolute beast, what a gift.
Please restore it and enjoy it!

[CycleWorxRacing]

Dangggg you walked right out the door with this deal!!!

[darkmoonblade]

The nismo cap is offered by nissan. It's oem with a nismo stamp. They have Radiator caps, oil caps, oil pan bolt/nut (magnetic), nismo lug nuts, air valve stem caps. Basically, the person before was a nissan guy and loved nismo and got nismo Oem parts

[tennaj]

I''ll say it again...The guy who stopped his bid at $46, 400 is punching the air right now after watching this video! 🤣🤣

18:42 I agree, if you hoyste your car up and start doing fluid maintenance you should just do everything if you have the time. It usually save a lot of headaches and is preventive maintenance.

I love your unforced delight at how this car A) runs and B) is built! The Japanese definitely know how to put something together correctly!

Keep this on the channel, don't care if you do mega horsepower or just a little bit, I kinda like the stockness GTR!

Love the channel and the depth of detail you go into stripping the cars down! That'd what keeps me entertained! You're the slightly older Matt Armstrong, positive and enthusiastic!

[rickybobby]

This was the Car Gods giving you a win after the issues that have had you questioning your commitment to working on old cars! Keep doing what you do Alex!

The expression on people face when a GTR launch never changed for the past 15 years. Everything about the GTR is *chef kiss*.

[Jim-Slade]

The elbow-click 😂, I feel your pain. Love these videos, Alex. You’re a great teacher.

[ScaryAF_Entertainment]

Love the new addition to your collection! I got to drive a GTR back in 2011 and it was an experience I will never forget!!

Your enthusiasm is refreshing, knowledge you share is like good food. I watched you after midnight, tried to sleep and reopened to peek twice more after two a.m. first after coffee, back to the G.T.R. Exciting to absorb your videos. I am an old motor head, my challenges were a bit less complicated as they are now. The G.T.R. is a very attractive machine, love the technology. Keep on keeping on, great stuff!
