What are you talking about?

GTR NISMO: 7:08
AMG GTR Pro: 7:04

How is the Nismo faster?
When nissan gtr came out nissan claimed the car can do 0-62mph in 2.3secs well nobody got close alot of this manufacturers claim time which is a lie if benz truly knows the GTR Pro can do what they claim let them send a sample to the right quarters let's test it.

look at your 2018 list there is no GTR Pro there because fantasy (claimed by benz) is different from reality.
Car TalkRe: World's Greatest Drag Race 7 by nurey(m): 7:18am On Dec 08, 2018
HeavenlyBang:
You're surprisingly correct. But that's the Nismo na, which is a tuned car... We may as well start bringing Brabus and Wenntech cars into the equation.

But even at that, yes, the GTR Nismo is faster than the AMG GTR.

But not as fast as the new AMG GTR Pro. grin grin
The 2013 Nissan GTR Nismo isn't tuned it's actually a stock version with 6xxhp it was later reviewed and the launch control was removed in subsequent GTR so a 2013 GTR nismo is faster than a face lifted 2015 upwards GTR nismo.

Well From your list the Nissan GTR is still up top than any benz offering, let's wait for your black series AMG GTR let's hope the GTR nismo doesn't give the Black series AMG GTR black eye. tongue

Nurburg isn't by 0-60, bro. And 0-60 is what Godzilla excels at.
For your info the Nissan GTR is faster than the AMG GTR in the Nurburgring, the E63s has no chance anyway. Nurburgring is not about having a top speed of 400km it's useless it's about acceleration and handling.

PhonesRe: Which American Carriers Are Easiest To Unlock? by nurey(m): 2:50pm On Dec 07, 2018
ochukoccna:
Hello all
American carrier branded phones come mainly as the big 4 namely AT&T, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile and Sprint
Although carriers like Breed, Metro PCS, Virgin and some others exist too
Thus many phones from Yankee reach our shores down here
I'd like to know which of this American telecommunication provider networks have

1] the most compatibility with the frequency of our local carriers i.e. Glo, MTN, Airtel, 9Mobile
2] which of this networks have the most ease of unlocking and subsequent phone use for Nigerian carrier frequencies
Thank you

N:B
To avoid the risk of duplication, if this information exists on another Nairaland thread, kindly point me there.
Frequency compatibility is majorly about phones not network, the phone manufacturer decides what type of frequency chip it embeds in its device. For the 2G, Edge, 3G it is always easy across board it's 4G and LTE that becomes sophisticated.

Ease of use by carrier sometimes depends on phone type. Some phones just need unlock code and it works while others needs some very cumbersome process to unlock and get things working. I did say I always feared sprint mobile though as there was a time a particular android on sprint can never work with nigerian network.

I would vote verizon best due to some of their phones having GSM and CDMA ability combined which is extremely rear in others.

3 too used to be an issue in the NEC and Motorola series back then. The phone can unlock but to browse nah wahala, I bought a Motorola A1000 years ago on the 3 network it never did browse until I flashed a new upgraded OS (it was a symbian OS).
Car TalkRe: World's Greatest Drag Race 7 by nurey(m): 11:24am On Dec 07, 2018
This is almost a year after and Benz/AMG have not built anything faster than the GTR.

The 2013 GTR NISMO is still king over AMG any day anytime.

I hope the Benz fan boys will accept defeat before the year runs out by 1/1/19 it would make six years of night mare reality caused by VR38DETT to some people

Now refute my claim by telling us the exact AMG/Benz that is quick off the line and has a better quarter mile than the GTR nismo 2013? please don't mention AMG GTR or 2018 E63s let's not go round in circles.

Wow. Useful thread.

I wanna order for a small sized quad-copter, (and its free shipping).

How about customs fee? who handles it? Do I just order for it and wait till I'm called to pick it up?

Thanks
Normally there are items that are exempted from custom duty because they a not brought in to the country in commercial quantity. As nigeria is a lawless country they may decide to hook you with custom fee depending on cost of the product. if the cost is minimal they may overlook it size and weight also matters.

nwaobitex:
they deliver to doorstep?
yes they do. When the package reaches nigeria, the aliexpress in app tracker would update that package delivery unsuccessful. Then you head to nipost tracking app and it would tell you which exact post office your package is

http://www.nipost.gov.ng/Trackconfirm_1.aspx

The screen shot below is an example of mine.

My item arrived at their eti osa office (which is a stone throw away from me) but due to my location (I am stay in the boarder between ikoyi and eti osa but my address is at ikoyi they moved it to the ikoyi office which is far from me.

I was to go pickup myself when I saw delivery unsuccessful before I got a call from nipost that am I at home, they want to come and deliver my package to me.

The important thing after shopping is to ensure you fill the comment side and drop a note to seller to write you phone number atleast on the package

You're the one saying the gtr will beat anything thrown at it.
GTR fan boy
Amg GTR will beat your Nissan GT-R
The Nissan is a nice car
But it's not the best
You're quick to say Nissan GT-R will beat any benz thrown at it
Now that's what infuriates me
Benz fan boy how market. I have never said the GTR will beat everything thrown at it, I only said with its V6 engine it will humble V12 cars in its categories.

The benz I am talking about is the GTR not SLS that was a mistake and the GTR is faster than it off the line and quarter mile.

The Benz 2017 GTR V8 biturbo vs GTR Nismo 2013 even though the benz has more hp the GTR was able to out run it due to its AWD setup and launch control. The video is "world greatest drag race 7" go and confirm my words there.

Also there is no benz quick off the line than the GTR for now
Car TalkRe: Cars With V8 Engines. by nurey(m): 9:59pm On Dec 06, 2018
HeavenlyBang:
Lol, pipe down. The GTR was literally built for launches, it's still pretty good at that but it's not the king it was in 2007. A P100D would eat it for breakfast on the 1/4.

It would be a shame if the GTR wasn't faster than the E63s. The E63s is a big sedan, lol. Weight-power ratio, my friend. Let your GTR go against a CLK GTR, let's see how it goes. grin grin

Also, calm down, Mercedes has been trashing BMW M cars for the past couple of years.
Baba in 2017 a GTR beat a 2017 V8 biturbo AMG SLS. I also told you the fastest benz off the line now is the 2018 E63s no other class whether CLS, C, SLk, CLK can match an E63s

The GTR isn't king again has nissan refused to upgrade but saying a benz will beat GTR just because it is a benz is what infuriates me

Porsche?
V12?
Really?
There are no popular V12 porsches except for the 3512 engine which had so many problems from inception
Even the F12 engine was not popular
Also, c63 is better than m3
But the e60m5 is better than the w211 Amg
F10 vs w212
I think not
Also the pagani Zonda F and huayra are V12 cars below 3.0s
stop making me laugh please the Zonda or huayra are 4 secs vehicle running the benz m120 or m2xx made from 1997 and improved upon. The best with 6xxhp propelled the car in 4 secs this cars are not even top 20, even top 30 fastest cars. No need derailing please try again

assuming l ordered for 20 flash drive, will l still be charged 1k
Bros I have only used aliexpress once.

If you are ordering from 1 vendor he would pack everything in one place which won't be bulky, I don't expect you to pay even upto that, I stay in an high brow area reason why I was charged 1k I no get strength to bargain so I just paid the 1k people normally pay between nada to 300 naira for stuffs heavier than what I ordered.

My issue though may be custom charges for you but just tell the vendor to write your name and number and say it's a gift item during packaging

I beg to differ
Merc's 4XX don't really mean 4.Xl engines like before
The C400, C450, GLE400, GLE450, C43 Amg and GLE 43 Amg are all turbocharged V6.
NB: the above mentioned vehicles are not just the merc models with such naming system, the E, GLS, GLC, SLC and co are all part of the family
And also
Your first statement
That engine is the one in the GTR and it will not beat the AMG v12 in the Zonda F and the huayra, google is your friend
It might take the lead from 0-60 or in a quarter mile race, anything beyond that Nissan go park for one side
I gave that benz size because of the popular ones on the road, I am talking about popular vehicles not interested in all the vehicle classes as you can see I didn't mention the American cars.

now to your second statement I have not said the VR38DETT is the best engine in the world but it has a better rep and has won many awards compared to your V12 fitted in AMG. I don't have strength of comparing any benz engine to the VR when we talk of V12 engines we mention ferrari, lamborghini, Porsche, Ford GT fitted engines, engines that are in the 3.0secs and below.

Also the VR is a very old engine produced in 2007 respect your elder please benz fan boy

Also race isn't determined by top speed if it was the Ford GT would be the best car in the world. The fastest and best benz currently is the 2018 E63s it is still no match for a stock 2013 GTR. Benz never beat BMW M series una wan pitch am to nissan GTR grin clowns

Gillbertoesther:
Thanks alot.

The RX is 2000. Meanwhile, There's a Kia jeep I saw online too location is Ikeja, the price is fair And it's lovely but don't really know much about KIA maintenance. Don't know if it's maintenance friendly I terms of fuel consumption. Lower cost of body parts and availability.

My first interest is Rav 4 but my money can't get me 06. I don't like those smaller ones. Lol

Don't like Honda at all bc of the way the Tyre pulls off and embarrasses the owner on high way.
As long as the kia in question is not Kia Mohave or Kia sorento you will be fine. The sportage is common and solid you can get the 2005 below with your budget as tokunbo

Wow.. wow.. wow... there was no bypass done when the transmission was changed... but I still thinks it's fine...I dont kno....cos I noticed that the movement has been smooth these few days after working on the radiator coolant tho not an external one ...

Pls how can I locate you to check and see if the transmission can be salvaged pls...

Then afterwards I can drain and replace the oil
Fortunately I am not a technician or mechanic so I can't really help out on checking.

What you need to do is scan the gear and see the error codes it generates.

Its cheaper to drain oil now and fill with right fluid than changing gear or asking technician to drop the gear and start fiddling with it.

that Abro is a disaster 1st of all then page 4 shows details of the bypass

In our experience, one shipping is factored in from a lot of AliExpress vendors, no longer a price saver. Might as well buy in Naija. Used to be an electronics vendor there back in the day.
Sony is a premium brand and the major issue is always spare parts. Exporting a sample was cheaper than buying in nigeria I got a new screen 100k used 60k and I got my new unit quarter price of used price given to me

Prices are different from same product because of different vendors are on the platform. Also read description well before buying a products.

My replacement screen was complete screen plus digitizer and touch also the shipper sent tools along with the package.
