With the right skills, or a crap load of money, anything is possible.

T-tops, the sexiest way to let the wind blow through your mullet

If you know what you're doing, you could make a 1990 240 into a stretched limo, so t-tops are possible too.

Someone asks this every few months.

Sometimes someone actually goes through with it.

Then the car sits unfinished forever, or they sell it a few months after finishing, because they weren't happy with it in the first place.

That 200sx is not factory. I lived there for awhile and have never seen a factory targa.

I think the better question is: "can you make a 240 have t tops look good?"

theres you a challenge bigger than the job itself

Sure hack the roof off of a NX2000 and with some welding and body work skills IT CAN BE DONE

It would actually be an easy fab cause the 240's doors have no top frame and if you like it F**k every hater.....

The Nissan NX's I believe 91+ Have T-tops. Could possibly do a roof conversion.. Haha. Would take a pro to do so, but.. It could work.
