Hey guys and girls

Name's Nate. I go by Luv2ski35 in every single board I visit. I am the treasurer of a Nissan off-road club called NOAS. http://www.NOAS4x4club.com

I drive a 2002 Frontier crew cab Long bed with a long list of modifications to just about every aspect of it from suspension to frame to body. It currently has the NEAR stock IFS, but is soon to have a jeep D44 put under it.

Last August I was invited to compete in the Fourwheeler magazine Real Truck club challenge. Here is a picture of it in the comp:DVD is due out sooner or later and the Fourwheeler magazine article SHOULD be out in the spring....

I have also places 1st inthe 2004 and 2006 Raid North GA off road adventure rally....(2005 I got beat by a TOYOTA and a JEEP after bootching one of the TSD stages...oh well).

On top of that, I got in the Feb 2007 issue of Peterson's 4wheel and off-road magazine....I don't remember sending in the picture...but hey, it's an honor to be in any publication.

Pretty much all of my mods to my truck have come by way of Kenesaw Mountain Accessories....I am good friends with the owner, so ya know...

I got this site from a guy here Sean, I believe his name is Mudcat here...he is building a MONSTER hardbody with a VH45 swap....that I peaked his interest in when I posted how easy it might be.....glad he is spearheading it cause I plan to follow his lead sooner or later.

I am a teacher in Atlanta GA....married with a 3.5 year old son and another boy on the way due in March. My wife just graduated from grad school...so there should be a good increase in household income...which shold allow me some more play money for the truck.

I look forward to learning from and contributing to this site.

Welcome. Nice to see some Nissan trucks getting some recognition in the off-road area of driving.

And those look like Wrangler MTRs if I'm not mistaken. That's a heck of a good tire. We call them Mangler MTRs. LOL.

Yeah...us nissan off-roaders have had our troubles getting recognized. My friend that ownes KMA has a prety well built 93 sentra SE-r as well. he had the engine beefed up nicely when he bought the car from the junk yard and added a phantom grip LSD and now it's a total sleeper....I love driving that thing...especially when I pull up next to a Mustang and blow it's doors off.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

oh nice!

it's refreshing to see drivers of modded trucks.

especially when badnosity is pegged on them.

I love in the second vid how there's a perfectly fine road beside it

I really like that truck. That 2nd vid is killer. I like how you drive it with reckless abandon.
