NICO needs a mag

Post by **I_eat_hondas** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

I dont know about all of you out there but I am damn sick of looking at hondas and neons in all the car mags out there. I think we need a car mag dedicated to nissan/infinity. Anyone agree with me??

Yes, and it spelled INFINITI not INFINITY

The DSM community is starting an actual magazine, and it just so happens that I am on staff.

I'm a project/feature writer....we hope to have the first issue out in about another month or so.

I see no logical reason the Nissan community couldn't get one going, too.

If theres a paid staff, I'm a pretty damn good photographer;).

hell yea...i'd get a subscription if NICO had a mag...

Post by **driftaholic** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

sounds like a plan to me, just hope whoever edits is better than the editor for super street, who let "SYLVIA" slip thoughdecember 02, pg 62, in the big red text under nob's S15.

If they did come out with a magazine... I hope it will be more technical.. then just cars in the spotlight..

Post by **nissanrcer240** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

no but seriously a magazine would be nice so we can make sure everyone sees and hears about upcoming meets, like the one in fredericksburg, VA friday night;) ...look in the nico meets section for more info

hey john, you need to change a little about the Q in your sig, the grille is part of the hood, so there's no line above it and you are missing the fuel filler door (you can barely see it in hitman's pic).

Post by **lessthanjakejohn** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

ok, thanks for the help, Hitmans pic is so crappy in quality that it is hard to tell.

I think i'm going to leave out the fuel door and the door handles

Post by **sultan** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

wow! you changed it already! i assume you are also leaving the sunroof out, right?

Post by **lessthanjakejohn** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

yes i am, the roof doesn't show up that much anyway.

damn, there's gonna be a lot of happy people in the dfw dsm community. a NICO mag would be cool, as long as the flame wars stay out. I kinda don't like this forum because of it, there's no real info like in the dsm community.

But this is why I stay.

there is http://www.nissanperformancemag.com , i think it's only online. i think it sucks, but i mention it because they sponsor (or something) http://www.that dead forum , where DNE (Dallas Nissan Enthusiasts) has a forum.hey AJ-SPEC, you should come to the DNE meets, this month we're going to a dyno.

Post by **AJ-SPEC** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

I'd feel weird, I don't have a 240 yet and I'm still driving my eclipse gst (when that *****er works, damn pos)

Post by **QuickSilva** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

let's do it

Post by **BB Turbo** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

That sounds like a really good idea! I guess i can speak for my dad cuz he does allot of freelance for a few mags and newspapers. I guess hez good, more tha 15k in his darned photography equipment, all of the money that couldve gone towards a car. But, its a great idea i think.

Post by **I_eat_hondas** » Mon May 05, 2003 5:21 pm

If anyone is interested in writing or has ideas for articles please let me know at [email protected]. I will also be looking for sponsorship and what not maybe this dream could become a reality in the not-so-near future.

sucks???

are you kidding... Great articles form Mike Kojima, great project cars, and those guys test parts long before you see it in any other "real" magazine. and the Ask Sarah column... nice!.....As far as I'm concerned those guys do more for us Nissan owners than any other website or "real" magazine. If you guys are serious about a print mag you should talk to those guys. without them it would suck...
