theres this guy on ebay selling r33 headlights and he said they can fit on a 95-96 s14, but u have to modify teh mounts on the chassis. Is the easily done? has anyone done it before and if so any pictures?

from my knowledge it is possible... but not w/ just R33 headlights... I believe that they are enough different from the S14 lights that you need to get fenders and a hood from the R33 and modify them in order for the R33 lights to fit and look right... Once again this is just what I think needs to be done, and I can't remmeber where it was that I got this info. I hope someone w/ more knowledge chimes in to help you out.

If it was just the headlights it probably wouldn't look too bad, but with the whole "conversion" attempt it just seems a bit to trying for me.

Looks like he spent all his money on the conversion and forgot to get some nice wheels...

mmmmm....those R33 headlights look mighty muscular....then if flows until the sideshot of the taillights....from that angle the tail is weak compared to the front....but it's still a good conversion cuz I've seen others that work great (nostripes lol) but that angle plays on the small size of the taillights to me

I'm sorry, that car is hot!!!

R33 is my favorite Skyline, although I couldnt justify spending the money for that conversion. Its still sexy though...

that looks like A$$..

look at how much gap you have on top of the lights adn on the sides.. youjust can't really tell because the damn headlights are on..

you do not... I repeat.. DO NOT just stick the R33 headlights on without any body work..

look at this:

do yo usee the circled parts??? you see the gap??? do you see the missaligned headlights...

I have seen how they look in daylight without the lights on.. it looks like A$$

i think it'll look good if done right. if someone just slaps them on their stock s14 it'll turn out bad. probably a lot of gaps and who knows if the hood is going to close right. if you do it right its going to cost some money though.
