considering the rarity of the 97-98 kouki im gonna buy a zenki and convert the front myself. You will need a rad support from 97-98, plus fenders, hood, bumper, headlights, side markers and grill to complete it. The only reason I answered this post is because im actually gonna do this conversion. Otherwise I would have told u to do the research and look it up. Tons of other people have asked the same question.

If i was you i would just keep the zenki and spend your money on a nice RB or SR. If you really want the kouki that bad then sell the zenki and buy one

To my knowledge, the 95-96 is the same as the 97-98. The only difference is in the headlight brackets, IIRC.

Jerome is right, there are some differences. There is lots of discussion on the subject from previous threads, including part numbers needed for the conversion. You can do a search for kouki conversion, etc. you should get a lot of info, don't forget to search archived posts as well.
