Guys, I'm in the process of saving a VERT from this guy who left parked outside(no shade) for a couple of years now. Needs new paint, 1 dent in the back. Seats needs to be replaced. Needs to be cleaned. Headgasket needs to be replaced and some other minor stuff.
Its a 91 VERT auto. It'll be me and my girls car so its ok, also I already have the other 240 manual.
I will post a before and after pics...
VERY soon to be a VERT owner

Cool news Bomex. If you put a fraction of the love into this 'vert that you put into your fastback... it's going to be sweet! Glad to have you aboard.

Re: (AZhitman)
No kidding... I used to think I was sort of hot stuff 'cause I had one of the nicer 'verts around... But with all the new members and the awesome kits and engines... I'm starting to get an inferiority complex.AZhitman wrote:We gotta get crackin' Seth.
I can see my plans of having the "World's Baddest Vert" trickling away....
My lack of funds, time, and experience in wrenching has really delayed my goals for working on the car. Plus, the longer I take, the more projects I get lined up that I never seem to get to..
I'm hoping to get my car in reasonable shape to bring to NOPI in September. It won't be a hot show car, but I think it would be fun to bring it along for the weekend.

You are correct. It must be either a typo or misunderstanding.rare240sx wrote:I thought verts were only from 92-94....

Re: (Eikon)
OK, I get it. FYI, I had not heard of Bomex before. Too bad everyone isn't as all-knowing as you. And I see that being a moderator doesn't make you exempt from being a smart-a**. Thx!

Re: (chukifastback)
Hey, don't take it personal.. It's all in good fun. It's wrong for me to assume that everyone has heard of Bomex, so I apologize to you for that.chukifastback wrote:OK, I get it.

Re: (chukifastback)
Eikon is a super cool guy, and I'm 110% sure that he didn't try to hurt your feeling or make fun of you. Bomex is big in 240 community, so that's why he said like that. Here's Bomex website for Nissan kits.chukifastback wrote:OK, I get it. FYI, I had not heard of Bomex before. Too bad everyone isn't as all-knowing as you.

Re: (Eikon)
i'm right there with you, seth. well, except for the lack of wrench time... i've got plenty of that. i was also set back by a suicidal deer. oh well... no sense in crying over spilled milk. i'll get another one before too long. it's a big setback, but nothing i can't handle. you have to have patience when you want to take on big projects. you need it to pay attention to the details that seperate the decent cars from the awesome cars.Eikon wrote:My lack of funds, time, and experience in wrenching has really delayed my goals for working on the car.

anyways... let's see the car all ready.

Re: (Eikon)
No sweat. Just thought I'd give it back to you a little bit! And don't get me wrong; being a smart-*** makes you ok by me! It's a way of life, after all, so long as "It's all in good fun."Eikon wrote:

Then I'll pull up in my custom bugged vert....but something ain't right....why does he have slicks in the rear???? My goal for Nopi. Is to have it swapped and at least a frsh coat of paint. Not a fan of body kits but will at least go with a different front bumper.....So what is your plans on the car bomex???
