Late Winter and Early Spring '11 Vert Projects

[biggie]

Kind of dead lately (winter does that)...

So what's everybody working on for their Vert?


-I picked up a new top and tinted window for my Vert. As soon as tax return gets in I'll look into someone to install it.
-Also will be picking up Q45 rotors and pads, already have calipers to put on the front of my Vert.
-Also need to install FLCA with Whiteline bushing (removed from my coupe) and RUCA (had for a while), then get alignment.

Need to start driving the Vert to work in spring if gas prices keep climbing.

I need to go out and adjust my newly installed Cibie headlights, but it's cold here. I'm going to pick up new 3rd brake light that goes to the spoiler and front bumper inserts from Courtesy in a couple of hours. They were cheap, so I'll just replace my old ones. I need to get an alignment as well.

well i just got my stolen vert back stripped interior, so i have to go out and save to purchase all the seats, carpet, door panels, back panels to make it look stock again. ugh this situation is a big step back from where i want to be.

I'm actually doing really boring work, building a wiring harness, and fixing the rust on the top of the front window frame.

I am saving up...
A rear window
A passenger side headlight (silvia dual projector if anyone has one)
repair my fender
paint
wheels
then I am going to redo my interior

hmm I wonder if I should make me a "build thread" too

Just bought rotorimp's brace. I can't wait to install it.

Kinda new to convertibles. I've owned a hatch since Jan. 2009 and bought my vert in March 2010. I'll make a thread on the details soon. What i'm doing now includes:
- Buying tires for the new rims
- Alignment (seems to be a common issue)
- I will install my fresh piggy lip come summer
- Leather s13 seats
- Zenki s14 skirts
- I still need to find some clean white doors so i can do the pillar elimination.

paint and body work, new coils and hood trying to get ready for spring. takumi dont you live in syracuse ? if so drop me a line.

Called around to shops today, found one that quoted me $350 for the top install. Now tax return money is needed.

Got a strut tower stabilizer bar for Christmas, installed that but the car's in NC and I'm in CO so the only love my vert gets these days are when my 18-year-old calls and says, "Dad, can I borrow the vert?"

Would love to get a set of those "Square Wheels" and some new tires. Also, loved the new headlights that 94_240sx just installed. Then of course there's the 5-speed swap I keep putting off...

Man-o -man. Finished the Z32 rear ebrake install with a lil welding for the 2+2 ebrake cables...perfect! Gonna print off all tech info for the greddy profec b II boost controller and the greddy turbo timer set up info (now that I have an ebrake). Put on my new anodized open ended blue aluminum lugs. Ordered my white side markers /hid headlight kit/ clear lenses for the jdm parking light/turn signal light . Waiting on the NISMO fuel pressure regulator. Had to reorder an electric phantom autometer temp gauge since I wasn't paying attention when I bought the first one (non-electric). And lastly for now I picked a oil filter relocation kit.

I installed my own top and would be willing to pay$500.00 before I EVER did that again. Call me impatient (only when it came to redoing my vert top)

Just bought a viper 5701 alarm + remote start.

Bought some Starion wheels, but have no more money for 5-lug swap. Now I have to sell them because stuff is breaking

Changed my starter

Really looking for wheels again after I fix broken stuff.

Cold sucks.

Cold weather sucks. I had to drive in the cold wind and rain with no back window

[murderrsirenss]

-Get the sides of my top fit right, its new but some idiot put it on and it looks like s***.
-Get sr swap and installed.
-Seats.
-Wheels.
-Goodies.

lol we should all make a build thread and have a deadline so there is much to read. The vert forum has been looking lonely

[jspec603]

Long time no see all. I'll be adding somethings to my build thread soon, hopefully within the next few weeks. Has been almost 2 years since I've been able to do much of anything to her. :-( Makes me sad seeing it sitting under a stinkin car cover.

[-RJ-]

hooray! I cant wait for spring. I have lots in store for my car... hopefully

[biggie]

Now picking up a CF hood from a friend, clearcoat is fading, so going to try to sand and use some spray paint clear on it.
