As promised: I finally swapped the Silvia front end

[Moody]

I posted up a while back that I bought a vert, and ordered a Silvia front end for it, well I finally got time to install it. Before anyone comments, I know I need a SR20, but its coming soon enough.

P.S. To those that have swapped their front ends, I need help with headlight wiring. My headlights work, but the turn signals are all messed up!

some one need to change this section on the forums from the 240sx convertibles to the silvia convertibles

looks great!!!how long did it take you to finish the install???

[madcowvert]

i dont know about his but mine took me about 3hrs

1 to take the stock one off

1 to put the other on

1 to wire every thing up to work right

Looks good now all you have to do is get it out of the clouds.

[madcowvert]

for the wiring you need a testter and those bule splicers that you add a exciting wire to another.

not sure about his, but it took me roughly a shade over an hour to remove the old and install the new (air tools definately help). everything is an easy match up, wiring is the only time constraint.

Hmmm, was your original front end damaged prior to the front end swap?

Congrats man and Nice swap.

does doing this increase the car's value?

not really...maybe if you did the car up to a certain point....for the most part if anything it will lower the cars value like all aftermarket stuff..
