Any thoughts on Infiniti M30 Coupe

I am picking one up from a family member who wants it out of their driveway.  I did a little research at f31club and most guys are drifting them.  I want something that is fast, fun, a little luxury and most importantly....rear wheel drive.  Im thinkng this is a good deal.  Plans are to go a little low, wide tires, clean interior w minor system.  May do a 5 spd swap at some point.  I cant find any pics of one VIP style.

What are your thoughts?

vg30e is a decent motor to turbo. find a 84-86 300zx turbo to scoop the manifolds off of. or you can swap in a sr or rb ;)

Not much parts support for vip, but here's a crazy one from hawaii.

The M30 is a Leapord in Japan.  They are basically a luxury model R31 Skyline.  The R31 Skyline front clip will bolt directly onto a M30.  I've never seen one modified VIP style.  Only common problem i know of is the power steering line from the pump down to the rack and pinion has a section of rubber hose that has to be replaced.  I think I paid 100 bucks to get mine rebuilt.  Relatively easy to remove and reinstall if you have access to a car lift.  Other than that, they seem to be solid cars.

I wish I had one for my daily....no coupes around here only verts.

yeah the verts are a pos. i wouldnt mind finding a hardtop and doin a 5spd swap from a 4/87+ 300zx turbo as well as the 3.70 lsd rear end. and then swappin the turbo manifolds over ;) i was big into the z31 turbos.....but that black one is teets! esp with my dream wheels :giggity:

Thanks guys.  I have seen the black one before.  The build thread is on f31club.  According to wiki there were only 5000 90-92 M30s produced and 2500 were made into verts.  This will be my first RWD car.  I have already looked into the s13 and s14 suspension swaps, Z31 manual swap, and some engine upgrades.  I understand that the exhaust is somewhat of a direct swap too.  
 
It already has timing belt, water pump, and thermostat replaced.  At this point in time I just want to go get the car, fix the leaky radiator, and drive it!! =)

sweet! go for it! if i could find one in good shape, id snag it up and do similar things!
