The last moments of my ICE (Video)
Jan 17th
Shot just prior to removing my internal combustion engine (ICE) to make way for my new electric motor. The engine is a Turbo 2.0L (SR20DET) from a Nissan S13. Imported from Japan and installed by hand myself in 2001, I’ve had a lot of fun times with this engine.

They are setting an example for the world to follow.

Second, it’s a common sense issue, if people aren’t paying attention, bad things will happen.
Anyone who’s driven a Mercedes, a Lexus, or a Bentley can attest that even Gas powered vehicles can be whisper quiet.
