So, I had asked a few weeks back about S13 verts, and M30 verts, and blah blah blah.

Well, I got the S13 about 3 weeks ago, here's the sellers pics



Basics - 1993, AT (obviously), 105k, worn out seats carpet, pefect dash, no rust, good top, wasted rear window.

Parts already purchased - carpet, coupe door panels, shocks, springs, 5 lug and HUGE brake upgrade (already sold/traded away).

Next to get/do - seats, quarter windows, rear window (maybe whole top??), wheels (if I don't use one of the sets I already have), maybe coupe doors, or just seat belt relo.

Unlikely - 5 speed or motor (anytime soon).

Oh yeah, I also bought the M30 vert, and will be seeing how much of the S13 suspension will fit it, but I'm just going to enjoy the crap out of this for the summer .

Yes, I hate the wood too .

Keith, you suck. Nice scores.

None of the S13 stuff will fit the M to my knowledge.

Dibs on the M30 when the time comes. Period.

Yeah, since I got them both for less than I sold my motorcycle for earlier in April
Another site wrote:You must swap the S13's front control arm in order to use S13 tension rods and S13 tie rods to use the S13 front strut.
And the M30's not nearly as clean as it looks in that pic, but it only has 75k on the clock and the oil still looked new after driving it 500 miles back from MD .

You'll love them both for different reasons. The M30 has a much softer ride but is still fun to drive.....just not as fun as the 240

Still what a great choice to have to make every morning.....hmmm, which convertible today...?

Have fun!

Just wondering if the two cars share any parts for the rear quarter window tracks or guide plates? Since you have the two car side by side, it would be interesting to see if any of the pieces are similar since Nissian doen't offer the guide plates anymore maybe Infiniti has something available. Just an idea to help out all of the people with broken rear quarter window guides (like me!!!). So what do you say...interested in checking it out and letting us all know?

That M30 convert makes a fine looking automobile. Nice score.
