Hello New guy here. Long time motor enthusiast . I have owned three full caged race cars over the years and always respected these cars and the nice builds in my area. Just bought a 93 swapped vert. Will be starting the build this fall. Although a drop top was not on my radar this car was for sale in my area and I could not resist the temptation. All history documented. Car is unmolested minus full pro swap including 5 speed trans. Can you say sleeper? I am a old guy with lots of years of motor sports in my background. Bear with me as I learn the ins and outs of the Silvia Nation. This car will get sideways and will bang some cones up. Thanks John

Welcome to the club. If this is your first S-chassis you are in for a treat. They really are wonderful cars that are a lot of fun to drive and really easy to work on and modify. Nissan really built a classic when they made these. Good luck with your new project.

Welcome to the fold. Post some pictures when you have time. Its nice to see a nicely done drop top. Coming from motorsports, you will appreciate just how easy it is the work on these vehicles.

Get a rollbar (if it doesn't already have one) and bring it up to a ClubFR drift event at USAIR in Shawano!

Its a huge pet peeve of mine. I have a silvia front, and it drives me nuts. The car is LHD...its a 240.
I let it slide cause this dude is a n00b.
Again, welcome to the wolves.

My humble apology LHD 240 sx The motor is a Red Top Twin Cam Turbo JDM full front clip 5 speed transplant. The previous owner had the wiring harness modified in Texas. Drop top rewired to fold up on the fly. Car is rust free and equipped with 3" stainless exhaust Black on Black. Roll Bar ,Suspension,LSD and Enkei Wheels wrapped with some direzza star specs next. I welcome any input . Thanks
