Rest in Peace, 480sx.. Our brother and friend.

[Realdeal180SX]

I wish I knew him, sounds like he was a great guy.

RIP 480sx

RIP stuff like this sucks, a fellow senior at my HS recently passed away in a crash as well, very sad.

I just read this entire thread. I'm still waiting for the "just kidding!!!" post... But it's not coming.

Nate definately a a different vantage point, and his opinions will be missed.

I created a new user name, as I don't feel right using his. He has a 1995 s14 rolling chassis I plan on dropping a black top in. I would love to be able to build the Ka-T like he wanted, but its far over my head.

^ you his brother? welcome to NICO officially... hope all is well if you really want to build the KA-T there is surely someone on here that can help

KA-T! we got you.

he's around... en route to his next lifetime, you'll probably live long enough to meet him reincarnated.

While I didn't know Nate, It seems he was a plethra of knowledge on the KA-t subject. It may be hard for you now, but believe it or not your brother and his words can still help you build a sick KA-t even after his passing. I only wish though that it wasn't always the good whom pass way to young.

[TrustME]

I haven't been around Nico for a while and I don't post too often anymore, but it really is a shame to hear about things like this within and outside of our community of enthusiasts.

R.I.P Nate. I wish I was around to have shared in the memories you created with the board. You will be missed.

[Anime_TuneR]

I never personally talked to him, but may he rest in peace

[nelson8708]

Sorry for your loss...he helped me when ever i had questions. May he rest in peace.

Well I had considered dropping a black top in it. I am pretty sure that he has just about everything to build it with. But somewhere a long the line he (technically) surpassed my ability. I know we have a motor laying around that was supposed to be ' the one ' and a whole plethora of parts. I will get everything together in the coming weeks and see what I come up with. Thanks again guys.-Justin

I just got his computer running and forgot to switch screen names..

[IanS]

Man, I go on hiatus for a little while, and this happens.

You will be surely missed man. Good luck.

[breadbox]

Same here.



That is sad to hear. Best wishes to all.

[neverlift]

Man I was so busy with my life I didnt catch this, I knew someone was missing from the daily kat forum. I will miss the guy, never met him but I had love for him

this world can be so cruel sometimes

If you ever need help with building a KA-T, come over to the KA-T forums.Your brother has helped us all so much and has taught us a lot of things about going KA-T, we will try to help you out as he did with us.

If you ever need help with building a KA-T, come over to the KA-T forums.

More then that... it sounds like he helped a lot of people with their work... Gotta be SOMEONE in the area who can drop by and help finish his.

RIP, via con dios

[spooled240]

man just cruising through the forums i just found out this guy passed away...what a real bummer. I remember him from when i first joined this forum as one of the OG ka-t guys that really helped everyone out with their miscellaneous problems and making some fun of the bad luck he had with his numerous ka-t's lol. But he was a very persistent and optimistic dude always jumping back when things went wrong. I can't say i knew the guy very well but I will miss this guy, ~~RIP Nate~~

[PapaSmurf2k3]

Been a little more than a year. RIP Nate. You are not forgotten

[Razi]

[Jdmstyles]

Rest in peace :T

[Chris28]

x2. Nate helped me out a lot with my build, he was very well respected in the ka-t community. RIP.

[nissangirl74]

I still have all of our messages saved. I go back and read them ever once in a while. I hope his family is doing better than they were a year ago. such a sad, sad situation, and a tragic loss.

[Coolwhip]

wow... just caught this... horrible to hear and sorry for the loss. Was a great person to see on the forums and will truly be missed.

[breadbox]

Peace be.

Im right there with you man. Sorry I missed this thread before. I think I have read a couple of his posts. Sad to hear, he'll be missed

[Jmoore124]

So I apologize for switching screen names. It has been a crazy couple of years, and many things have changed. It took 3 years, but last week I started twisting the wrenches again on Nate's car. I will start a build thread on here in the next week. There is a thread on Ka-t that Nate had made I am making progress reports on as well. I have not been on this forum since this incident, and it was cool to see a lot of you guys come back and post after a year or so. Good group of people. The thread will be more comprehensive, but this is where I am at now.
