The wiring was great on that car. I had my wiring tucked once but I keep breaking stuff and pulling the motor so often.

You pulled Hell I spent the time getting my finger greasy from that crappy factory tape. We deloomed the whole KA harness to get the MAF wiring almost to the plug.But Brandon is a wiring guru and if you want clean well done work hes the man to talk to.

Outstanding weekend, gentlemen....This was my first time with my car and had a blast. Greg and the rest of the NICO gang are true professionals and real Nissan enthusiasts, in my book that counts a lot. What a show, the Skylines were in full effect and all of the 240SX's were top material. It was great to personally meet most of you guys/gals during both days, but there was so much to see and do that I wish NOPI was at least 4 days long.

My NOPI award is sitting in a very special place in my house, and it will be there for a long time. It really means a lot to me....thanks

As soon as I get my over 300 pics sorted out I will be posting a few...

I really enjoyed myself there. The meet & greet was a blast, as was NOPI. Greg and the rest of the team did an awsome job and really put NICO's name out there big time. There were a few other clubs representin' but none of them could hold NICO's jock. It was really one big party over at the big blue tent!

1der and Chopp did a great job with some comic relief on the megaphone and microphone. And my friend Goose, my brother, and myself all enjoyed sitting at the table and watching all the pretty womenz walk by. GOOD LORD ATLANTA HAS SOME PRETTY WOMEN WITH BIG AZZES!

We met up with my aunt in Buckhead Saturday night and she took us around the city a bit. We had dinner and I had a few drinks and we called it a night. We got 10 hours of sleep that night and opted to stay out of the sun and tour the city a bit more instead of going to the 2nd day of NOPI. We all liked Atlanta a lot and will definitely be back. My brother and I even left with the job listings from the Sunday paper.

We drove back to Indy following Wes most of the way so he'd have someone to help him drive. I'd say it was an awsome time! I feel sorry for anybody that missed it!

It was awesome to meet you! Your car is a prime example of what an S13 should look like, it's sooooo freakin clean! Glad you could make it out!

Brit, I heard you were coming all weekend, but didn't actually know who you were until the end of the day Sunday, I feel retarded

I am still pissed at the fact that I had to pass due to low funding.. I WILL be there next year!

That demo is cool as hell! My car is in it from last year.. The '93 240sx in the second picture.. The gray one in the middle..

Also, I don't know where in hell she came from but I haven't heard anything about her since last year... Liz was, by far, hands down, the absolute BEST part of last years show.

Alicia looks like she did a great job taking the show this year...

Alicia was amazing!

For her to put up with all the dudes staring at her for 2 days straight, being pulled in 10 different directions to take photos, sign posters, and all kinds of other work... and to keep a smile on her face and a great attitude. She's was spectacular and we all hope she'll be willing to help out again next year!!!

Yeah I didn't really get to meet anyone either...I already knew Torry and Greg, but everyone else, except amalao, are still strangers to me. I was around the Nico tent most of the time though.

Tell me about it. Walked up to the side to tell the driver where to park and I'm like "Holy ****!"

It was chaos - we had a VERY short time window, and weren't allowed to have many people on the track...

Good times this past weekend. I didn't get to hang out under the tent as much as I was hoping to because I was running around taking pictures or trying to relax from the heat the two days.

Good seeing everyone and lots of nice Nissans to boot

Heh, that's the opposite of me. The only time I saw something other than the Nissan lot was on my way to the vendor area with the models, or on the trip around the track in a golfcart with Alisha and the tall model whose name I can't remember...

Ok, I'm only a few month on this site, but which one is Greg? The ZZ Top goatee? It's funny, you communicate with so many people and have no idea what they look like.
