With a drill, sawzall, grinder, bondo and a welder, everything is possible.

Yes it works. It's pretty well bolt on just like the Silvia conversion is from what I hear...

i dont think it really flows, the s13s nose is thin and r32 is fat

I think that it would look a lot better on the S14...and R33 lights (the clear ones... or is it R32 lights that have clear corners?) might look even better... I think that I've seen it around, looked pretty neat as I recall....

I think it looks amazing. I would love to find a GTR bumper and GTsT fenders and give it a shot.

Talk about the road less travelled!! That looks Amazing!! If I had a S13, I'd rather do that than the S15 front end.

The lines flow so well. Drop and RB inside and have the GTR wing out back and you are doing the damn thing!!!

I'd like to see a picture of the white fastback with the trunk and hood closed. But that does look really nice.

i meant for the coupes. someone made a comment about the front being too bulky. the only way to counter that with a coupe is for wide fenders in the back

Doesn't really work for me...the R32's sedan-style front doesn't seem to match the aerodynamic shape of the S13 fastback IMO.

The full conversion looks good, but it begs the question - why not just get a real R32??? It can't cost that much more to import and legalize a real R32, can it?
