Mr. Bean. Pretty funny.
I think i'm still saddened by the fact that we aren't getting any. I think it'd be a brilliant foil to Scion, and be a way to get Nissan back into the youth market, which they pretty much shot out of a cannon.
I see a lot of jdm fanboi sites getting butt excited about it.
Nobodies?
"is nobody" or "nobody is"
Sorry to spew that crap.
That reminds me: how the hell do I actually subscribe to JNC?

I've been subscribed since before they first published an issue and only have 4 magazines. It's not exactly a "regular" magazine, but lawdy it's good.

Straight up shiny happy person, telling me how good it is and not telling me how to get it.
I subscribed via email ~3 years ago? I signed up for "2 years" worth of subscription, but 4 issues is all they've done so far. I have no idea if they're even still accepting subscriptions (as I no longer see the link on their site) and/or are printing anything (it's been over a year since I got the 4th issue).

I'mma send those bitches an email. Bitches love emails.
Just read through there forums. Apparently Issue #5 was delayed again in Oct 2011 and they aren't accepting subscriptions until they decide what to do. Digital only, a smaller (and stapled) mag, or a once-a-year special are the options.

Just signed up for the forums. Thanks.
Still have those 4x114.3 wheels for sale?
4x110, and yes. I ain't budging off my price on the off chance that a 79 RX-7 shows up in my lawn. 
I could have sworn those Hayashi wheels you had were 4x114.3. If they aren't well then nevermind, We GSL-SE owners have that oddball bolt pattern.
Nope, they're 4x110's. I can't decide if that's why they haven't sold or if I just missed the SA/FB wheel craze. Everybody has those stupid Rewind's now.

I'm sort of guilty about that, as if I can't find a set of nice used wheels by the time my project gets to the "needs wheels to be finished" point, I'm buying a set of Rota RBs.
Anyway, what was this thread about? Datsun coming back?

Countries like India will be getting Dacia Sanderos with a Datsun badges.
I wonder how many people in the US would even remember the Datsun name?

I have Weds!! Hate the Rewinds on the SA/FB. Like them on other cars but not the RX-7's.

Meh. I'm glad they're doing it, but sad that they're doing it wrong. It's nice that they made the official announcement. I think we talked it over a bunch in the past, though, so there's not much to say now

About a million of them. And they all are getting gas when I pull in with my '75 280Z and they want to talk for hours about it. But I'm not complaining, I like the attention that my rusty and beat car can still get. it just doesn't make my day go any quicker.
For the 'optimistic up and coming consumer'? WTF is that?
Its Engrish.
