Welcome, good to have you here, imagine you will get more than a few questions when the AP is released over here.

Ok Nator is a unclub that is basically is a pay it forward group, once each local chapter feels that you are not there for the short term then we will work on each others cars as if they were our own. From BT installs to brakes to troubleshooting. The Pedobears is just the Nator PA's nickname an inside joke.

Shows how much more popular our cars are in US

An for an example just yesterday a few of us went to help one of our members that blew his Miata's motor a 1.8 turbo to pull the motor and tranny and in addition we reached out to the Nator community and got a collection for him to start his rebuild. Collected $1000 in a few days, this kind of thing is not uncommon.
