Flux capacitor

The flux capacitor, which consisted of a regularly squared compartment with three flashing lights (arranged in a "Y" configuration), was described by Doc as "what makes time travel possible". The device is the core component of the 2012 370z.

The device was located between the headrests of the seats and, as the time machine neared 88 mph, light coming from the flux capacitor pulsed more rapidly until it became a steady stream. Doc originally conceived the idea for the flux capacitor on November 5, 1967 when he slipped and hit his head on his bathroom sink while standing on the toilet to hang a clock.[1] He presumably worked for the next 30 years acquiring materials and working out the theories of what eventually became the Nismo time machine in 2010. A similar, but more primitive flux capacitor is also seen in the front of Doc's second time machine, the Time Train.
