i have to agree and disagree. i swapped my pignose out for my 92 front end. i have an 89 body with a 92 front end. check it out at car domain. next comes side skirts and a lip.

I do prefer the chuki to the piggy. I personally don't like the jdm front on a hatch, I think the brick headlights and all flow and fit the coupe entirely though.

My fave is the 180sx front end, or type-x or w/e you call it. The s15 front is nice but I don't use money for toilet paper so that's a no-go..

Maybe my .02 will help..... Not.But I do prefer chuki on hatches and pig on coupes.

If you have a sil front, I think it's more visually appealing on a coupe with harsher angled body panels (only applies to s13)

I love all the front ends though, except I don't really like the type x that much lol.

Chuki is best for drag coefficient as well.

I honestly prefer the piggy to the chuki. The chuki is straight looking, and I don't mind it, but honestly I loves teh piggeh.

PS13 front on coupe (and for ultimate combo _ "brick" lamps, GTR grill, Aero bumper on coupe)

Leave the S13 conversion for the coupe's because that's where they belong. Zenki 180sx front think looks better on hatch than Chuki, and for ultimate look go with 180sx type-X Kouki front with full OEM aero.

And people dont do it to be "Jdm Tyte" or what ever you call that. Its just a look preference.

And the only other front end conversion I think looks good on PS13's is a S14A when fitted good and aligned right. S15 fronts dont belong on 13's or 14's.

And RPS13's stay with Zenki front or upgrade to type-x Kouki.

Flip up front ends FTW!!! Silvias suck and unless you got brick headlights they dont put out enough light to see decently!!
