I bought the car from an old lady for 2500 and she knocked off 500 cause she didn't know it had a blown fuse. All maintenence records and everything. I have owned it for two months and it gets painted this week. I dunno if i should SR it, i am scared of state ref, i live in Cali.

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

that car is definitely NOT a crappys13!

I would love to see more pics!!!! especially the roll bar and how it fits, etc...

Love the body kit. I dig a silvia front on a 'vert. Especially a black one!

Thanks for joining up on NICO.

1) wow how can those wheels sit that sunken in with those spacers? must be like +40 offset or higher, right? what width are they?

2) are those corbeau forzas? I was just thinking about buying a pair to replace my aging recaro/s14 SE combo. are they comfy? I'm kinda big, so how do they fit you?

3) what do you mean you "got it a little smaller" (the bar). So its not their standard 240sx cage? that doesn't look like an autometer cage at all, with the cross braces on the main hoop. Their race roll bar just has one diagonal brace to the driver's side. Does yours even have a main hoop or is it just those twin hoops? I can't tell from the pics. I really wanted a twin hoop style one but I don't think it would pass tech at events that require a bar (they require a seamless main hoop).

autometer makes gauges. and you can order an autopower bar with all that. harness bar, diagonal, etc.

1) the offset sucks, i know its hella sucken but it looks ok for the untrained eye, obviously 240 guys should all know this.

2) the driver seat is a forza, the passenger is a a4. the forza should fit fine. the a4's are really tight. i weigh 170 5'6'' a lil chubbY LOL.

3) The width of the main hoop is 1/2 narrower. i will get pics up soon. its a single hoop but i welded the cage together myself, i put an exbrace in the back to make it a lil stiffer cause we all know verts have tons of flex. the 6pt should be done in about a month or two and possibly 8 point, i really want to make it feeel like a coupe, however it will always be heavy. It is an autopower. And for those who relocate yoru seat belts...the cae will not fit cause mine kinda sinks in that one hole the seatbelts chill at.

As far as my car not bneing crappy....you should havbe seen my past cars before i deciede to waste all my money, so people alwasy told me i had a crappy car LOL. Thanks for the warm welcome again guys.

You guys here are way more chill than zilvia, those guys either hate or give props....but we are all vert people so its all good.

[donmeca2020]

nice vert man, its nice to see some more hooked up ones. gives me more ideas on what to do with the car

[top_secret]

yeah autopower not autometer, obviously since you had already said autopower just a slip up.

I have those same rear fenders... I have everything I need to install them but when I cut the stock ones out, I was thinking I should weld the sheet metal back together. did you do yours like that? cause the factory sheet metal goes together at the fender lip and if you cut them they are seperate. if that makes sense.

i filled it with expanding foam like the packagin ****.

[jrsink]

hot sh..!

[top_secret]

you should always use 2 part catalyst foam like you can get from pegasus racing... .the expanding kind needs air to cure so if you put into into body cavities it will never dry and stay a gooey mess... just for future reference.

that is very true with what you say, i only used it to seel the gap, i dun remember what type i used to fill the fender, it was alright, with it expanding and the fenders being FRP i noticed that press my widebody out jsut a tad bit, other than that its cool. But thanks for the look out
