I've seem that red one too. I think they both look very good, Maybe some headlight covers to make it look a little more streamline.

Yeah, I saw that red one a while back, looked just as good. Anyone have a website or company name for this conversion?

if they rounded off the hood/grille area and put some lamp covers it'd look alot like an aston marton vantage

somebody listed under 180"zx" when the picture of the red one was posted.......all i know is that i'm a Nissan freak and all for the Z conversion...

i think the price will drop from 3K after a few years, just like the strawberry conv. it started off at 3K and now it's around 2K.....

It needs projectors in the front. Looks and function would make it almost worth 3K, but i just dont see where 3K goes without something worthier than just a front end...

Definitely super nice. If i had the cash, i would own it. haha, but i don't and i never will buy that. Way too much money just for looks.I could get alot of stuff for 3g's...a set of brides and a power FC maybe?

Wow 3,000 is a bit too much, but I haven't found any webpages about this kit, someone link us up!

Wow! That is hot... I wish I knew about that before I did my R32 conversion... ah well. Wouldn't there be a way to totally hack up the front of a 240 and place the headlights in, use sheet metal to blend it back in and that's that? Seems it would be cheaper. You could probably use different front bumpers too.

The Cefiro front looks exactly like the S13 silvia front.

drifter sx: everything to you is rice, maybe your should do absolutely nothing to your car, then you have no chance of being rice.

This is a very tasteful and interesting conversion of old and new gen, seeing as they are both 240s....

Yeah, follow the link. There's a thread about it somewhere on here. Ignore the fighting, this is a local forum around here, lol. It's not done yet, so keep that in mind. I have M Sport rear fender flares, a high big wangan, it's a complete 180sx conversion from the doors back and it's soon to have a CA18DET (RB20's too heavy for my liking). I'm probably going to do a full Bomex or Ings ground effects kit (both companies make parts for the HCR32 and 180SX). Painted black. We'll see how things go, but dang, I wish I saw the Z conversion earlier.... that thing is sick!!!! :D

Yea that does look pretty good! How much custom work did it require? I think it would look cooler with the R32 GTR front grill/hood =)

BTW- pretty much impossible to have a 2.6L KA...you cant bore it out that much without hitting the coolant holes and/or other cylinders.
