I haven't had time to do much research and all for mods but it would be great if I got some answers for my questions. Here they are:

1) Anybody know some good auto places in Florida? (Orlando area)2) How much does it cost for a manual transmission swap, how long will it take, and how reliable can one expect it to be?3) How much does it cost for an SR20det swap, and is it reliable if done professionally?4) Is there any potential at all in the stock KA engine?5) How much does it cost for a new top, how long does it take to install?6) Is there a hardtop available for purchase?7) Should I keep the automatic or swap it for a manual later on?8) Should I turn my vert into a drifter, just a clean looking car, or slam it?9) What brand tires are recommended?10) I heard of a cleaner called Plexus...can it clean the rear plastic window effectively?

I wish could answer all of these questions for you, but you really wont learn the most important thing on NICO. The Search Button, all of these topics have been discussed plenty of times. Just take some time to search and get familiar with the site! Happy Posting!

1) check the regional section2) depends on where you buy the parts, depends on how quick you work, depends on how well you work4) it has .4 litres more potential than the sr6) I think there has been recent talk of it in the convertible section7) only you can answer that8) an s13 vert is a beautiful car... keep it that way9) browse the tires & suspension section10) never heard of it... any plastic polish should do nicely

It's probably going to tear a hole in the time-space continuum or something by having this much spoonfeeding in one place. You got lucky this time, but don't ever expect it to happen again.

EDIT: 6) I just noticed this is in the convertible section. Not searching is one thing, but how you missed a thread half way down the page from your own is beyond my skill to comprehend.
