  • Nissan was the show's main sponsor and it pratically ensured the crew had an unlimited amount of cars to wreck. Notably however, the crew were told not to wreck the newer cars, and most of the cars destroyed were older models.
  • There's more than one occasion in the show when the Daimon Force turn to the local Nissan dealership for help.
• Dueling Works: With G-Men '82, sequel series to G-Men '75.
