NICOclub’s 240sx Convertible Project Car: “The Droptop From Hell”… “More Power” Now, what car doesn’t need more power? I mean, that’s what we’re all after, right? While the convertible was starting to look good, it simply didn’t have the power to back up the looks – Fine and dandy if all you do is […]
NICOclub’s 240sx Convertible Project Car: “The Droptop From Hell”… “I thought you said you were going to put wheels on it?” Now, my wife had already relegated herself to the fact that this car was going to get new wheels, and it seemed everywhere we went, she pointed out wheels she thought would look good […]
NICOclub’s 240sx Convertible Project Car: “The Droptop From Hell”… “I’m only gonna put wheels on it.” Yep. That’s how it starts.

NICOclub’s 240sx Convertible Project Car: “The Droptop From Hell” For those of you who have been following the four-year build of Project Vert, you’ll know it’s undergone many radical changes… from the high-horsepower KA-T build to the suspension work to the removal of all top-related stuff, to the hacking of the fenders and addition of […]

NICOclub’s 240sx Convertible Project Car: “The Droptop From Hell”… At last update, Project Vert was done and rolling, and looking clean. Reliable power, good handling, and head-turning looks are a great basis for any project car, and the Convertible has them in spades.

NICOclub’s 240sx Convertible Project Car: “The Droptop From Hell”… In the last installment, we left off with the engine installation of Project Vert nearly complete. Another modification done was the relocation all of the underhood wiring, so as to be “invisible” upon inspection. The two large fuse boxes under the hood were disassembled and re-routed […]
NICOclub’s 240sx Convertible Project Car: “The Droptop From Hell”… After the exhaustion of building, fabricating, installing, tuning and testing had worn off, and the smoke had cleared, it was time to assess the situation.
