Umm, no. I don't know of any company that makes R33-appearing kits for the s13. For the s14, yes, there are kits but not for the s13. Personally, I think it would look like poo but that's just my 2 cents...

pics or shens..

and uh... that will look horrible...

there are no kits for that. you will have to do all the work from scratch.. If you got the rb then you should know where to get the panels and rest of the stuff to do what you want.

Come back when you can put together a correct sentence structure and you are able to properly spell at least. That will be completely custom for the R33 rear tails on a coupe and a lot of cash wasted. Also there are kits for front S15 conversions on a S13. S14 front conversions are completely custom but I have seen them done. Don't do it if you are second guessing yourself.

use this , its there for a reason.

have a wonderful day.

i don't know why people are giving you a hard time about doing the conversion. why everyone else is trying to get the 'jdm' look, your being more original and i give you props for that. yes, they do make a r33 bodykit for the s13. you can check out http://www.visracing.com. they don't have it on their site, but they do make them. i almost bought the kit for my s13 until i found out they were on back order for like a year now. i had also bought r33 tailights to install on my s13. by the looks of it, it doesnt look like it'l take much modification to install those. anyways, good luck with your car.

heres a pic of one with an r34 front end conversion. it looks pretty clean. doesnt really make it look like a skyline, but it' still unique.http://www.garage-13.com/3433.jpg

umm he said he has a coupe that is a s13, that pic is of a s14. and why haven't you considered doing an r32 swap. that is the closet to the coupe as far as size goes. somebody here did an r32 conversion and said it wasn't perfect but it was close.so i'm assuming it would be closer than an r33 or 34 swap.

That looks like a r33 with a r34 front, maybe Im trippin and it is a s14. I hope your willing to spend a buttload of money.I think the s14 kouki would look alright on a 89-94 coupe though. Anybody have a pic of that or can photoshop a coupe.
