Hello everyone! I recently got a hold of a 1992 Nissan 240SX Vert automatic. I don't really document everything I do but I take pics here and there. First 2 pics are from when I bought it from the dude. Mileage is unknown because the odometer was not working. The top is in OK condition and it was not working either but I did get lucky cause I found a guy that was parting out his vert and sold me one of the hydraulic actuator for $20 and one the quarter window with rails that has a semi decent guide for $30, The top works now and yes it still has A/C!!!. I also changed the seats to S14's ones and did 5 lug conversion with Z32 front brakes with 350z rotors. For suspension I ended up finding some used Tein super drift for $950 with the Tein EDFC's, The Circuit Sport RUCA's, Toe, Tention, and Tie rods and on its way.

After lowering the car and putting my Stang Reps 17x9 fronts +5 and 17x10 rears +20 wrapped in Hankook Ventus V12 215/45/17 and 235/40/17 Yokohama tires. This is what it looks like now. :dblthumb:

I'll get more pics of the interior later and the brakes with close ups.

Hope you guys like it or you don't really have to lol :rotfl

Car looks great. The fittiment of the wheels are perfect. I'm still searching for my vert. Just missed a few good deals. What's next? Will you do the 5spd swap?

Thank you, Next step is to install a roll bar and I think I'm going to leave it auto because I have an RB coupe if I want to drive 5 speed but today I did paint the speed panels :dblthumb:

Paint.

THEN done. :)

Way cool - I liked it with the OEM front end, but there's nothing wrong with some JDM droptop action!
