Video: Shell Helix Ultra Transparent Nissan 370Z Demonstrates How Oil Works Inside Your Car

With enough time and money anything is possible… Shell recently took a Nissan 370Z, completely dismantled it and copied all 2000+ parts to make a transparent car. Cool, but what’s the point? Being an oil company and all, the point was to show off their Helix Ultra line of engine oil. And we’re glad they did.

Sure, CGI or some x-ray trickery would have been nice and easy – but oh no, these folks wanted the real deal. The engine itself was enlarged to roughly 2x the size of the original to clearly demonstrate the flow of oil throughout the engine. Check out the full “Making Of” video after the jump.
