Yeah. You'll never hear it from me again. If it goes on like this for another 10 yrs, the IQ drop for this nation is going to be at least by 25 points per person. Duh-huh.

LMAO! You're too much! So so bt so true! The lower IQ people are even joining the military because our government has recently lowered it's standards! God bless America. I need to get my @$$ out of the Army before they get me killed!

I did the R33 tails on my 91 hatch, only cause the Jacquemond wide body kit came with some ugly light, the R33 looked better and they were same concept, just alittle bigger. I also have a RB25 so I feel that gives me the right to use them, but I'm not trying to clame it's any kind of skyline. justwanted to do something differn't

well, my body man had to take a small break, but I'm not worried, the longer he spreads the body work, the more time I have to save more money, I gave him $4500 down and a $1000 a month , so far $7500....i'd say we're about half done, maybe another 6 months, he hasn't gave me a estimate on time or money so I don't know anything for sure, just quessing, but I won't be suprized if the bill is $15000 for paint and body when she's done.

Uhhhh... didn't your kit come with the tails off a Saleen S7?

Anyway, there's a member on the board who's got an R33 conversion on an S14 that's pretty well done. If you're talking about an S13, I think you're better off doing R32 on a Coupe, and not touching a hatch :P

I really wish they could just make an exterior subforum here, to keep all the trolls where they belong... General

Maybe English isn't his first language? MAYBE?

The main reason I asked was because I was interested in doing something original. Originally, I thought to go with a S15 front, and R33 tails in the rear. For some reason, I think that would be pretty cool... and maybe original...doubt it , though... and as for my body work, justr doing the tails as opposed to full conversion would free up some money for the paint job... that I know will be original.... Soon Sky-Warp will be pictured on here...(sorry, I am an old Transformers fan...) OK, I know you people hate big attachments, but this goes to show my color scheme... Think Kameleon Kolor and Mini-Flakes,... well the idea sounds good in my head anyway..

yeah the R34 are just too big for the back of the s14. the R33 lights are pretty big too. none of those fit with the lines of the s14, it's got a really unique shape. please don't do anything to it.and yeah, those r34-s14 hybrids are fugly. though the white one isn't as bad, still...just no

sky240, i haven't posted on your thread yet, but I CANNOT WAIT to see the end of that, it's gonna look sick!you'll have to come down to Florida to show it off

and wtf is with the honda pic?

Funny, I think that car was originally a Kouki too. The member's name is: starkos14

I think with a widebody, it would sort of work, but the skyline stuff is kinda beefy to begin with.

Is he selling it or are those old PIC's? Looks ok but definately needs a wide body and some bigger rims. The rims are so small they're cute!

i guess the kid just wanted a nice looking car. me probably doesnt share the same passion that others have by just having a fast car. plus he could have just run ou of money for it...who knows. looks decent though

anyways, most ladies that you meet would rather you have a nice looking car, then a car that hauls ***. plus performance mean less reliability.

Heres more pics of that r34 s14. They did a good job but it still looks like poop. Why would you ruin a s14 like that?

What the hell is up with the mirrors??

Also... having a kouki, i seem to like the S15 front end, but i have to admit the stock rear lights on the car are a tad weak. And if they were sized a tad differently -- i think the skyline lights wouldnt be that bad.

I guess everyone's got their opinions... Well, I am looking forward to Feburary, when I get my 240... Then the FUN begins... And I am going to go with an S15 front end...cuz I like it... It may seem retarded, but at least I am not going to do something stoopid like put altezzas on it, right...? LOL

ouch. That was... mean... I tend to not think so... Besides, I simply like the look of the S15, so I wanna replicate that on my car...with the less than original R33 taillight conversion... Sounds lame, but I might be able to make it work...

I'm not trying to be mean, i'm just drunk/ignorant right now...just being honest..

Personally, I think s14.5's are okay looking (a few, not all). And if you are able to own a car that you are proud of then it really doesn't matter what I say/think does it?

Conversions are to each his own I suppose...

personally I've always liked the s15 front end. But if and when you do get your 240 to do this to, it BETTER be a Zenki. If you take off the Kouki front; which is IMO the BEST, SEXIEST looking front end EVER...you shouldn't live.
