thinking of buying a vert???

[heartofaskyline]

so far i have 2 hatches and have had one for 3 years. i like verts, but ive heard that they flex alot expecially with high horsepower, since i would prob swap an ls1 or rb into it... any other things i should be foreworned of before i go and find one...

Make sure that:the top is working properly up and downwindows are workingtransmission shifts wellpop up headlights workengine is running...no severe problems

everything else is basic when you would search for a used car

Flex is not that serious as most people would think...people assume so because it's a convertible. Vert frames were reinforced to accomodate the top and have stiffer suspension than the coupes or hatches.

A man that knows a lot about this is wirelessalpha...he uses his vert for drifting. Also Greg (AZhitman) has a vert himself...maybe if sees this thread he will give you some info also.

ok thanks. i had a buddy that said they tend to flex, but maybe he was wrong. then agian, i could always just weld some pipe across the frame
