is this mag in print yet? I know it used to just be online. Do they actually print copies of this mag now? If so how much are subscriptions?

Not sure if it's in stores yet (most likely is), as I received my copy in the mail.

See link for list of places that sell it.

See here for different subscription packages.

AFAIK, it's never been an online 'only' magazine. I've been receiving copies to my home for almost 2 years now.

Anyone catch the small blunder about the wheels and tires? Apparently I have an extra set of rims and tires that I didn't know about!

Not a big deal, the details of the PWR aftercooler, ice chest, and Emanage Ultimate were left out. Oh well, I'm still stoked and very appreciative Nissan Sport gave me a two page spread.

Thanks.

The bulge is the PWR water to air aftercooler which cools down the hot boost dramatically. The shiny thing behind the grill is a heat exchanger (with a push fan mounted on it) to cool the warm/hot water and coolant mix that came from the aftercooler. You can clearly see the line coming from the heat exchanger because I'm using clear tubing and Toyota red coolant/water mix. Below the ice chest is a water pump which keeps the water moving in a cycle.

Here's a better pic of the 'bulge'.
