Nice car, congratulations!

(Now that you have posted those pictures showing the tag plate, lots of people will know where you park the vehicle, your name, your address,...so, do a greater favor to spamers, leave also your phone number... :chuckle: )

Not clear when you make a thread about your 240. Anywho, the vert forum is your friend.

Probably got it from the title, i'm just not good at intros. But i will def be on that forum a lot. Need to get started on some small things to get it running a little stronger.


And thats not my plate..its a friend of mine. I needed something to drive it off in. Good look though, he lives in a lovely gated community :D h :chuckle:

Yup, that's my baby(old pic tho, she's got new wheels/paint now). We have a love/hate relationship :biggrin:

I think you'll love an RB in it. Nothing like the feeling of the air rushing all around you as boost kicks in, sucking you into the seat while all you hear is the sweet roar of a silky smooth inline six spoolin up :woot:


Here's my build thread on the car:

update-on-the-droptop-s13-5-t289808.html

And my build thread for my Rb20, soon to be Rb24, with some better pics of the car:

my-rb20-w-rb26-itb-s-thread-t423637.html


Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions on the vert or the RB when you get there, I'd be glad to help out anyway I can :dblthumb:

I have SOOOOOOOOOOOO many questions. haha I don't have the manual for the car. Guy didn't have one at all -.-
One being...how do i change the hydro-oil for the top motor? Can't seem to find that info out any where. :(
Yeah the RB is going to be siiiick. If you have any old parts from the build...(interior really) that you are willing to pretty much give away let me know lol.

Thank you for the warm welcome. And your car...i have to say...looks f***. It is def in my top 10 of verts.
love how clean the whole car is. From the engine bay to the shifter nob haha.

Welcome to NICO. The S13 vert crowd is pretty good around here. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions about the car or need any parts, I know my way around these pretty well.

Edit: Go here for everything you need to know about the hydraulic top mechanism. Page takes awhile to load, then scroll down to the "Hydraulic System" section.
