R33 GTR's without front bumpers and giant intercoolers are dangerous.one COMPLETELY pwned my 180sx(which is still looking for a new owner) 2 weeks ago. I'm terrified just thinking of what Nico's would do to my poor 180....

.......of course, I should feel good about myself because my car is stock and only running 11psi.

ANY-ways, where in O-town are you SD? I'm going to be staying in the Winter Park area come tomorrow.

...3.5 years later, Dr. B is still one of the most influential people in my life... he always has wise counsel and great advice for me, and is one of those folks I just enjoy talking with.

The fact that he's a Nissan Nut is secondary - I'd cherish his friendship just the same if he owned a Lancer RalliArt and a Civic DX with an aluminum wing.

you guys are awesome....yeah...I love NICO and all that it has become...I love the enthusiasm....and the cars....

funny one Greg about the ralliartLancer and DX with a wing

However, I'm concerned that you may have offended some of our readers..remember...we are trying to be nice to all viewers; automotive tolerance you might say. There may be someone who has a RalliartLancer(loser) or Dx with wing(poser)...so maybe we should focus on other auto/ethnic subgroups....that are less likely to visit our site like Skodas with hydraulics or Hercules motorcycle owners with purple undeframe lighting...just sayin,,,maybe maybe not???

Dr. B,

Will you be available to come to VIRginia International Raceway, for NICOfest at GTlive. It would be a blast to see one of your classics out on the race track in the historics race.

Shoot me an email at [email protected], glad to see you're doing well.

Bah! Dr B can you please act your age? How the hell am I supposed to mature as a poster when I see you, the founder of NICO, making fun of other people's rides? You sir, are not setting a good example for me at all...

PS: I was just kidding...Please adopt me?

Heck I'd buy the Hemi Silvia, I'd even pay you for it, probably give you about $4.00. I'd love to see your Skyline and roadster at some point, well the rest of the collection too, but those roadsters were certainly some of the best styled cars of their time, just plain awesome!
