just got my vert

[sgiovanni86]

sold my hatch and bought a vert last week, runs great to. looks great no body damage, only bad part is the top has unremovable mold and a no back window, i got the car for $1800 so i like to think it was a good deal. i will post pics soon. o and i also bought a top and window from topsonline.com any opinions on them?, ill be installing everything myself in a week or two, so i will definatly do a write up with pics for you guys

Awesome. I'm not sure if that price was a bit high though, considering a new top was in order. Not very familiar with vert prices, so

Look forward to the pics. You coming to NICOfest? You're not that far from Carlisle.

I just bought a top and window from the same company late last week. When I get it in, I'll be doing a pretty big write up on it.

Oh, and good purchase on the best version of the S13 chassis

That's what I said, then when me and my friends were watching the Covenant and the kid is driving around with the top down in his Mustang all they did was badmouth verts :/

great decision!!! 'vert > fastback all day long!

$1800 sounds like a great deal if it runs well and has no body damage.. that rocks! Any contribution you can make towards a how-to or write-up will be much appreciated by all of us on the forum!

let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

Welcome!!!

yea, i always wanted a vert but never could find one at a reasonable price, it was funny the first day i got it i had no idea it used abs calipers and brake pads, so i was so confused until i read it on hear. i speant like 2 hours trying to put it together that theres no abs accuator and it uses abs parts. anyway, im hoping to have a 5 speed swap soon, the automagic makes the car feel so slow. saw 2 convertibles at the drift event at etown a couple of weeks ago, it looks so much hotter drifting a vert then a hatch.

Congrats on the purchase!

$1800 is a great deal if the car doesn't have too many other issues besides the top.

Congrats.

the even better part is i opened the trunk today after the rain stopped to see how much water leaked and and there it was the golden boot in its case, i didnt even know i had it cause i havtn opened the trunk yet until today. how much are thye worth anyway in good condition

[Loki]

300-500 dollars I'd say. I'll give you 75 shipped for it?

[jamesblonde82]

good deal if thats all thats wrong. dont forget to put your vert in the registry

Ooh, that's nice. Gonna be one awesome car when that window's fixed. Hows the interior?

[jspec603]

Great lookin vert! Looks like mine did when I first picked it up...minus the rear window.

[sgiovanni86]

interior is mint minus the seats, no stains, just those nasty nasty seats. not sure if im gunna put s14 seats or retrofit some other seats .

[Loki]

Get yourself some like-new S15 seats...those things are hot! I settled on a pair of piggy seats. I like em pics in the $30 Seats thread

[ishkabibble]

Or some R34 GT-R seats.

Jeez, this place is starting to get overrun by white verts and folks from the dirty Jerz.

[Loki]

^ We'll always keep it real with the red verts.

[Loki]

Oh snap....wrong thread. Free bump I guess :o

[jamesblonde82]

is that a vinyl top on your vert? or is it cloth?

[sgiovanni86]

is that a vinyl top on your vert? or is it cloth?

its the original cloth, my new one is cloth to i actually ordered vinyl by accident but got it changed, i dont know what the vinyl top would look like on the 240's so i didnt take my chances and stuck with the cloth

[jamesblonde82]

oh smart move man. vinyl tops dont resist damage as good and of course dont last as long. was there a major difference in price between the two?
