yea, i was trying to look at the roof because 240's don't have that line on the top... but it kind of looks dented so maybe he attempted to fill it. and i totally forgot to mention how the exhaust is on the wrong side (assuming that the pic wasn't mirrored)

[edit: and i don't think that friggin spoiler could be more slanted...gah..]

I'll agree with the people that are saying that the s14.5 conversion is geting played out. It was cool at first, but I don't think you can go to too many car shows without seeing one. But there was an s13 at HIN that had a s15 front and rear and kept the hatch, and I thought it looked great.

The front.

And the back. When I saw it they had the hatch down and it fooled me for a moment, but then I noticed the left hand drive and the hatch windows.

I think it’s an Integra. The gas cap while high up is located on the drivers side, last time I checked, my was on the passenger side. Plus it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to notice how the main body matches with that posted Integra picture.

I really hate to make fun of people, cause I try to have respect for everyone but you guys are killing me!!! Please tell me you're all kidding and that you recognized the integra right away. cause if you're not, you all need to give me your 240s.

Seriously though classyness is where its at. Cars trying to look like other cars are lame. If I see a civic with IS300 headlights and skyline taillights it makes me want to see it stuck on top of a speedbump somewhere unable to move (with its fiberglass front bumper in pieces). 240s can get away with it cause Silvias and 240s are in one family. Still though it has to be done right. S13.5s are super cool and make it look too easy to swap body panels around. Anything else and you're playing with fire.

S13.5/S14.5 both look good to me, I don't know what you guys are talking about with fender lines and flow and what not. Personally, I think the S15 tails are nasty, but hey, your money, you're free to do what you want. I think the 240s look fine the way they are, they only "conversion" necessary is the JDM fronts on the S13 coupes. Another ok mod is kouki tails on the S13 hatches. I don't think the 240s even need body kits, mixing & matching USDM and JDM body parts can make the cars look very nice, very subtley. For instance: S14 zenki + USDM front and lip + USDM kouki sides + JDM kouki rear and valances + JDM grill + JDM K's wing = HOTNESS

And those of you who recognized the car to be an integra are crazy, I only know it's NOT a 240 because the exhaust is on the right side.

rofl, it's hard to tell that's a gas cap really, i thought it was some dumb decal or some type of show prize ribbon like "thanks for trying..."

it's not an integra, it's not a 240... it's a freak of nature transformer.

i dunno... i like my front end but i'm pretty sure if you toss in a front-mount intercooler, it's really hard to fit... which is why i think some people change it or hack it. (but i haven't gotten to that stage yet )

Look at all the body modificatons on my car below...........

NONE!!!

I get more props from keeping it clean and staying away from ricing it.

I have people that are into import and domestics tell me they like how clean it is. The domestic guys usually say I have one of the few IMPORTS they like.

I frought the urge over the 6 years of owning this car,to do bodykits, huge wheels, Rear Spoilers, Graffics, Stickers,Carbon Fiber hoods, front end conversions.

And I couldnt be happier. I have won a few car shows, but not becuse of GAUDYNESS.

I think your car is damn sexy, I was wondering if you could give me some numbers on how much your paint job was, and also what color that is?? I"m not color blind I know its blue, but is it light blue, electric blue, ect.? my car project has had a lot of engine work done, I think its time for some cosmetic work.

I'm going to guess that he painted it Bayside blue (Nissan Skyline blue)... i would shy away from that cuz alot of 240 people have been doing that, unless you don't mind being like them.

Anyways, it also looks like it's time to put some aluminum/metal polish on those headlights too.

when i saw these people calling that HONDA (Had One Never Did Again) a 240sx I almost pooped my pants! you have to have serious eye issues not to be able to tell the car is just overall SMALLER than an S14... even from a picture you can tell this.

Nismodave, ur car looks hot except i would paint the stock lip back to the factory gray black color, i love how the 240s have the gray black lip and then the bottom is the same gray black then it changes to the color of the car, thats hot IMO. i like all the s14 front and i also like the s15.
