hey ive been watching the site for a couple weeks now and figured i'd post.

ive had an 91 RMS13 for three years, and just purchased my first convertible, a 1992 aztec red rust bucket , with 152K on the clock. i'm having the front frame welded up to stiffen the car more, because i just want it to drive on back roads with, which is why its getting tein s-techs and kyb struts. and i have a silvia front end to go on it. and while i am very familiar with the s13 hatch and coupe, ive got alot of questions about certain areas of the vert that ill save for another thread...

here's some pics as it stands now.....

Welcome aboard!

Holy crap, that's the worst rust I've ever seen on a "modern" Nissan...

Make damn sure the frame rails are solid, and double-check the inside of the strut towers - Might find it to be an unworthy candidate for restoration...

hehe dude, with everything i just went through with my hatch, everything is a worthy resto project...the frame is solid, the driver's rear wheel well has a hole, other than that itll be alot smoother than my drift car i hope...
