I have a 1995 nissan hardbody with a wrecked front end. I've seen it done edited bit don't know the steps and fab work needed to do a s14 front clip swap. If anyone knows how and knows someone whose done this before I would love to hear how it went and all the steps and fab required to do it. Thanks nissan fam!!!

Welcome aboard.

I can say, this would be a new one for me... and I've been in the 240sx scene since the mid-90's. I can't imagine it would look good, as the S14 is curvy, while the D21 is blocky... not to mention an S14 is a unibody structure, while a D21 is body-on-frame. Maybe someone else will chime in, though!

While I do not doubt it is possible, I really doubt this is what you saw. I spent a long time with the google and this was the closest thing I could come up with.

Even if you did see an S14 front end on a d21, it's likely the only one. Unless that guy just happened to do a write up on it, you're gonna have to figure it out for yourself. If he had done a write up on it, I'd have probably found it.
