hey guys, im new here. anyways I love the hatch, pretty much my fave, then I sw something out of the ordinary in the "best s13's ever" thread, and someone explained it to be a s14/15 with a s13 front. I was intrigued and tried to find more on this. I love how it looks but what I would like to know is how it would be done seeing these are 2 different body styles. also, i heard it wouldnt look good without a kit. I just want your guy's thoughts on it.

p.s. I like being different, I like this whole reverse conversion

Well its a total custom job. I dont think anyone makes a kit for it. You pretty much weld the front part of a s13 fender to a s14 fender. Then make custom brackets for the headlights and etc. Its alot of work but if you do it make sure to keep us updated

I'm all for being different but the new models are so round, the s13 is very angled and squared off. It looks horrible to me. I understand to each his own, but that's taking a step backwards... going froma more modern look and mixing it to get the older look as opposed to the opposite.

Please read the stickies. Especially the one the says " The Ultimate Sticky (Read Before Posting). ALL OLD STICKIES ARE IN HERE!"

Because there is a whole thread about the S-Chassis that shows every variation pretty much. Welcome to the site, but please browse around a little bit.

To find more info search S14.3
