Pop- up lights on a s14

Post by **StrangeLove** » Thu Mar 18, 2004 12:53 pm

I did search, and I didn't even find one thread on this topic.

I saw a picture of a s14 with pop-up headlights, and I thought it was the coolest thing I've seen in a long time. I started thinking about what would be involved in the conversion...

Alot of the parts could be gotten from an s13...

What parts cannot be gotten from an s13? Obiviously you would need a new hood, fiberglass may be an option. Any other parts that you guys can think of would be nice.

I don't plan on doing this conversion, but I think this thread could be useful to people thinking about doing it.

Thanks

s13 owners want the stationary lights, s14 owners want the pop ups, looks like we all got the wrong cars

Not all S13 owners want fixed headlights. I know if I buy that hatch I have my eye on, I'm keeping the popups.

lol I was thinking that too. . no way I'd wanna get rid of my lights. I had popups on my S13, and I really don't want to pay for the downgrade.

"I really don't want to pay for the downgrade" I dig it. less for more right.

i want to see piks of this conversion... it sound interesting and i tried google.com but found nothing.

Well personally. . I've always wished there was an S14 180sx. . with flip up lights, hatch, everything. . but S14 chassis, S14 interior. . S14 doors. .etc. . just different front and rear. . I think that woulda been incredible.

Don't mean to rag on the lights. . hell I had an S13

But I wouldn't wanna pay more for it.

There was an S12 Silvia and Gazelle (180sx). . then an S13 Silvia and S13 180sx. . when the S14 was introduced, the hatch continued on as an S13. . I just think it woulda been awesome if the hatch followed the trend of the past.

Yeah that would be nice. Sometimes I wonder why no convertiblein s14???

if u pick up the latest hyper rev catalog, they have lots of neat stuff, like popups on an s15, 97-98 headlights on an s13 hatch and z31 headlights on an s13 hatch.
