i have a 95 240sx. I wanna know how much more would it cost to get s15 conversion than s14 sharkeye conversion? Which front conversion is more worth it? S14 sharkeye or S15?

i think the best bet is to stay with your regular front.but, out of those 2 conversions i would pick the s14 kouki conversion first.

The s-15 conversion would be better in my opinion, even tho im not a big fan of the 14.5 look. The head turning factor (if that matters) would be way more than just driving a fake kouki. I think that you would also be able to get more for your car if you ever wanted to sell it with the s-15 front, the kouki conversion would just look like you wanted a kouki but couldn't afford one. I would also stay with your stock front, but do the s-15 swap if i had to decide between the two choices. Once again thats just my two cents, im sure that others have other opinions.

man i want to get a 95 240sx with a s15 conversion too s i wentn shopped around for the cheapest prices. just the s15 headlights cost 900$ at the cheapest. then the bumper, fenders and hood would set u back another 900$. so ye 1800$ would be the cheapest u could get it for. if u really want it then go ahead just remember themnut u might get into an accident thats an extra 1800$ that u wud have to spend but for the most part im guessing ur a good driver right? and well the zenki or kouki watever it is called for the sharkeye would be a lot cheaper due to the fact that u could get the parts at a dealer or junkyard. and that would probably set u back 800$ so its prmarily up to what u want. just a 1000$ difference. hmm well i say get the s15 conversion on your 95 240sx and later buy a 97 or 98 240sx and u cud have both. or u could screw either one of those conversions and get a r33 conversion. would cost a little extra but would be something unique since i have only seen r33 headlights on integras in california.

Personally, I'd just go with a S14 kouki conversion cause it'll be easier and less expensive for me to get the parts vs. getting S15 parts.

Also, I'm sick and tired of people asking how much "swaps" or "conversions" cost. Why don't you go out and do some freakin research before you ask? Plus also asking, "how much would it cost?" is too broad of a question. First off, are you going to do the conversion yourself? What kind of parts are you going to use, OEM or aftermarket? Where are you going to buy the parts from, some internet source or at your local dealership? Furthermore, are you going to have your car painted after the conversion? Because I have no freaking idea how much a local bodyshop near your home would charge you for the body work.
