If so reply here so I can keep a running tab. I'll need clean pics with a story line behind your mods etc. I say we have a KAT every month...

Here's an example, http://www.nicoclub.com/ROTM/rotmfeb07.shtml

I got some work to do on mine before she's "Show Worthy" of anything. Just got the new turbo off the UPS truck tonight. I'll be posting a thread soon!

Unless you want to use some old pics of mine, I'm out..

+1 on your sig, I love what they do(or try to). Wrote a paper with many quotes from NORML back in HS. Nuf said i suppose.

Id love to be ROTM, that would be sweet. Mine will be finished, or at least close enough in the next two weeks, its a pretty damn clean setup. Eh id actually rather wait till i get rubber on my wheels. Not really liking the ebay meshies atm. Put me on the back burner heh.

I've got quite a few replies on the sig...lol. I'm a NORML member as well as EROWID...both great sites and organizations for free thinkers.

Whenever you guys want your cars looked at just reply here, I'll handle the rest.

I was planning to get into a monthly autocross-ish event they hold here this spring, but lately all my Saturdays seem to be mysteriously interrupted by baby showers and birthing classes...

GHX your car looks like pure sex from the front(never really liked the hatch's rear), very nice car. Have some pride mang!

Engine bay is really busy though, your only downfall IMO.

Just a story line behind the mods, include how many motors you've been through etc though. We're going to edit the story anyway so include what you want. The key is really nice pics and a decent explanation of the ride and it's current mods.

Sh1t...I wasn't handling ROTM back then. Not that I am now either, that stuff is probably on one of the admins PC's.

Resubmit right here bro, if it's decent I'll get you a spot.

Look guys, I don't need a HUGE list of parts or a fresh coat of paint. I need a few cars with rims and boost that have been waxed. I'll weed through them after we get some submissions. I'm not looking for perfection, or even close. I'm looking to get KAT on the map again. Our traffic is slowing and it bothers me.

I'm also working with Mike (S13FX) on our KAT Portal. He's had like 3 different versions built now...lol. So all the submissions will at least have a spotlight moment on the cover page for our portal. Eventually I'll have a huge gallery of members rides.

If you guys need a place to have things hosted, send them to me via email, I have unlimited bandwidth via Nico's account with Iserve. [email protected]

Snap a bunch of pictures, zip them up and email them to me. I'll be the judge on whether it's good enough for Nico's ROTM.

Also, you DIY guys...man send them pics in. We're the hardest working bunch of guys on Nico. I don't need fancy, shiny bling bling all the time. Sometimes people like to see how passionate we are about doing something. Nothing says that like mods that can't be bought online!!!

Here's a few pics of the bestest car ever!!!

My Bio: I'm talk dark and handsome. I like moonlit walks on the beach with other tall dark and handsome men...boys are ok to I suppose. My favorite flower is the Tulip...they are so beautiful.

My next mod will be to remove the turbo because I don't like the sound it makes. Then maybe get a new wing and some HIDs to make up for the power loss.

I also have a man crush on WD

Last time i checked its 10,000 dollars cold cash or a mint kouki. They have also given away skylines in the past, pretty sweet stuff.

Oh your car is sick lookin, love the blue and your engine bay is pretty clean.

There is no prize other then your car is featured on Nico in the ROTM section and may get a spot in the yearly calender.

On the negative side, your 240 is to plain...sorry. Rims/suspension would need to be done IMO.
