But I'm switching this:



for this:



I love the vert and all, but I guess I'm just a B13 kind of guy. I'll miss getting compliments pretty much every time I drive my car.

I'll still hang around the vert forum to annoy you, though.

I'd love to, but we don't drive enough to justify 2 cars, and I'm not sure D.C. would give me 2 street parking permits. Also, my gf has ZERO interest in owning a car after going without one for 5 years.

You know how they say Hummer owners are overcompensating for something? It's like that, but the opposite.

Haha! Midget car. That's funny. I have one of those for DD. 1995 base, original owner and 181,000 miles on it.



This is a very good find. It's really clean for the age. Have fun with it. It's going to be perfect if you DD it, and keep the vert as a project car, but you know...

I was mad with Ish first too but some of you guys have to realize he lives in DC...and doesn't have a garage where he could store it.

Would you rather it get stolen or get sold to someone who will care for it?

Lumpy actually is growing on me now...

I have a Q. Is it easy to find OEM parts for that car? I don't remember when was the last time I saw that car on the street and have never seen it in a junkyard either. How about aftermarket parts?

NX Coupe is kinda special to me because I went to Japan for the first time when NX Coupe just released. I arrived at my friend's home, turned on the TV and the very first thing I saw was new Nissan NX Coupe advertisement. Somehow I still remeber that moment clearly. It was a yellow one. They called it 'NX Coupe.'

Wheels on my vert are Super Advan SA3R (1st version). My wheels are 16 x 7.5 +35 front and 16 x 8 +38 rear. I'd recommend getting 17 x 8 +22 on all four corners.

Mechanical parts are commonly available; it's pretty much the same car as a B13 Sentra SE-R. Body and some interior parts are relatively difficult to find. However, in the past year I've seen 4 NX1600s in junkyards around here.

Mines are 17x8 +23. Offset is originally +38, but I put 15mm spacers, so...I recommend that size too, but if you drop, you have to roll the rear fenders slightly.

Aww that's a shame. That was a fine looking vert, make sure it goes to someone who won't mistreat it.

Best of luck with your Del Sol, Ishka!

I guess the price is listed in the FS section... I'm going to have to check it out.

By the way, you are crazy. This trade is not the defining moment...

So long Ish, it's been fun.

I will agree that you are crazy.

Could it at least have been a B13 SE-R?

You will see when the car will broke a traction sr20 is not fun to repair. I have a b13 with a sr20 and when he broke I feel like a emo.

I'm going to resign from my moderator position in the 'vert forum.

I'm clearly not doing my job if my long time members are selling their 'verts in favor of... well... "other" cars.

What a shame.

You better sell that 'vert to another NICO member.

The nx2000 has a lsd where as the se-r does not.
