Oh here it is:

I already have the same fenders, thats what I expect my car to look like when I'm finally done with it (only with 50mm M sport wide body rear).

That one is nice!! You got those pictures off of Nissansilvia.com hey! I remember looking at that.

There was a yellow one in ausie with S15 front with 5 lug. I seen it in a mag like 2 years ago. If anyone knows what one Im talking about post it.

I am also building another Silvia Convertible from Japan now. I might throw on a S14.5 front end and I threw in a S14 SR20 and 5 speed with 5 lug already. I will post pictures later.

I swear there's a thread somewhere with an R32 front on a vert. fenders to foor fit was off "slightly", but that seemed to be adjustable/repairable.

Bleh.

That yellow on makes me sad.

I don't think the S15 front looks good on the vert at all.

Silvia looks better, but a 180 looks the best!

I think the Silvia front end is the cleanest front end for the 'verts.

Not I though - I like the stock front end. Old skool cool. This is the first and only car I have ever owned with pop-up lights and for some reason (dunno why) I keep thinking of kit. Wierd.

Anyways, maybe it's b/c of my fascination with cars ever since I was young..or maybe b/c my car is black...or maybe b/c I have a lcd head unit that reminds me of the one Kit had when mike would speak to devon...or...WTF? OMG. Damn...i need to re-evaluate my senses..

Hmm...fascination with old shows...maybe thats also why my family van is black...has a red pin stripe on the side...big wheels....(million dollar prize to the person who figures out that reference )

seriously though - I don't mean to hate or anything on those who did the front end conversion. More power to you!

But, alas...i really do like the stock front end. SilEighty though - I like that. But the onevia style is tight too

(cmon guys! the JDM guys put our front ends on there silvias! hollaring "its USDM! ryu-san!")

hehe.

That would The A-Team, for teh win.

And I'm with you, Alpha: I like the stock front end. Could use a very subtle lip on the front spoiler, but other than that, I think it's just perfect.

counting usdm and the 180 as separate, the s13 came with 4 different fronts....That yellow is no good IMO...The black with maroon top is pretty hot.I don't like the Silvia front end, but on the vert it just looks better.
