  240 VerT- R32 Rear and S14 Kouki front- Frankenstein-


Well, most of you are thinking why, is he doing such a HORRABLE thing to that limited edition vert, well i am not a retard or wanna be Ricer. i just love the look of the R32s, ever since i was a teen, i wanted 1, but now i am "old" and i want 1, well i had the chance to purchase one, but he wanted 25Gs chash, i only had 4Gs, oh well i bought a vert, and i love it even tho my friends tell me i look like Donkey kong racing in a little kart(i am 6'2" 240lbs).
Well i am soon to be married and before anything else happends i wanna finish one of my projects, and that is my R32 conversion, so let me know what you guyz think.

we cut the reinforcement in order to use it the R32 bumper

Had to cut the bumper ends in order to use the stock bolts that go attach to the rear 1/4 panels

welded a piece of metal in order to fill the gaps

That guy is ICKY, he is a genious doing customs crazy ideas, 50MM over fenders


there is a big diffrence just look at my signature post and compare

done with some prime on the trunk lid, i am in love


Now i cant work on it for 2 weeks, he is going on vacation oh well, i will keep you guyz posted on more details as we go along
ahh also, any feedback on a wing/ spoiler...should i go wingless, oem spoiler or this one from ebay????????

i need feedback guys thanks

why do you want to do a s14 front with the r32 rear IMO i dont think it flows very whell. the r32's are so round while the s14's are sharp and edgey.

The work looks good! But it looks like your going to need some new wheels or some big spacers to sit flush.


why dont your do the r32 front? i know it's been done before but i just think it will flow better IMO.

R32 vert

please dont put that wing way off the ricer scale!! On my car i have a wingless trunk and and origin wing.

Man, Im looking at this build and am thinking it can look pretty sweet. Then I saw the wing you posted and allmost had to get your address to come stab you.

Seriously though, cars looking pretty cool. So far.

The r32 conversion is looking really good. I just dont know about that kouki front end, i guess ill have to wait and see...Im not feeling the front bumper on that kouki you posted either. And as for the wing, i think you should go with the trunk lip that madcowvert posted, or like a wangan type wing might look alright. Keep us posted, its looking good.

Here's my input:

That R32 vert posted in that video looks really good. I'd go with the R32 front as I don't think the lines will flow well from the kouki s14 front into an r32 rear.

Regarding the wing, I say if you really want a large spoiler, stick with the r32 one that Nemo posted in the body kit thread:

But I think the lip spoiler would probably keep the lines looking smoother when you have the top down.

Keep up the good work and keep the pictures coming!

Too early to tell. It might look really good if it's done perfectly. I hope Icky does a flawless job.

I think it's going to turn out awesome!
I think the widebody overfenders will work really well with the R32 rear end. Plus lines of the S14 front with that kit will look really clean with the whole package.

As for the spoiler.. i'd keep it low if possible. Can you wait until the front end is on and the back end is done to choose the spoiler? It would help to see the top down and the rest of the car put together to see what would work well.. But in the end.. it's your taste that matters.. so do what you like.

Now here's the big question... what are you going to put under the hood to make that thing go as fast as it will look?

Jarco has a nice R33 front on ebay at the moment. They had an R32 front on a few weeks ago too. I'm sure if all is done correctly, it'll look good. Keep us posted!

If you are asking for feedback, i'll give it to you.

Lambo Doors are way too ricey!!! It would be a crime to do that to a 'vert.

Ekion i have to say that on 99% of the stuff I agree with you but not on this one . I dont know why maybe it's the ricer trying to get out of me lol. But I myself thought of doing the lambo door thing i don't know why but i happen to think it looks cool . But don't worry I have told my brother to kick my *** if i was to order them.

the r32 rear conversion on the 240 HAS to be done with rear widebody. or else it doesnt look right, which is why I'm lovin how yours is turning out. I say you shove and rb in there, ditch the kouki front for an r32 front, and drive the first R32 vert ever:biggrin ! Keep it up man, good stuff

Yea, and don't forget that he has a neighbor to the north that has a skyline conversion in the making. Its taking me much longer, but trust me, it will be worth it...

I am very jealous of that man's ***, but hopefully my patience is going to pay off. Anyone looking to sponsor what will be (and I promise this) a cover car!?!?!? hahahaha

I've always had some ballsy plans, but the project I've got going takes the cake, by far. Not to jump the gun or jinx myself at all, but for now ill plant a couple seeds...

19s + BN + full wide body skyline conversion for the short term (hopefully for HIN Miami in Dec) But that isn't even the most ambitious part of it...

But i don't want to thread jack, this man deserves his cred!

yea dude, if I start makin bread im totally down. i wont have troubles w/ the wheels and kit, but the rear conversion will be the hardest part getting done on time...

I already have a lil club / crew here in Tampa that I've started, so either I show solo, or with them.

But definately either secured car inside the convention center or not taking it (less I have a garage to put it in...) i do NOT trust Miami valets...
