I have never figured out how one can have a no reserve auction, when the starting bid is 225. I've bought 2-1/2 cars for what he is asking for a pair of lenses.

I guess it's the EDM mad tite yo thing now.

NOS in ricer talk is the general term for nitrous, and ironically, NOS (Nitrous Oxide Systems) is actually part of holley, which supplies parts for Muscle car owners, which most ricers seem to hate. NOS being used for meaning New Old Stock is not generally known to a lot of people.

I agree he's definately smoking something. Everyone knows FB owners are generally cheap. If we were wealthy we would own 3rd gens! Personally I dont even care for the clear lenses. And I agree with 85rotary most ricers hate american parts. Sad thing is Holley/NOS is the one that put nitrous on the map and they make quality stuff! Also the best brake rotors are always made from cold rolled American iron. You buy the ones made in China and usually they warp faster because of the cheap iron. Sorry getting off topic,Shawn

roger that, I sold my last cosmo 3 rotor to buy my current 1st gen, and when you can buy a 3rd gen for $4,000 or less (here in Japan) and my first gen cost me about 8.5K so much for the vaunted 3rd gen.
