Its a '95 240SX... so i'm certain it's a Zenki.... The concept still seems original [as a whole] to me, and, like I said... it shouldn't look too bad once everything is complete...

last year at formula d i saw a 240 with r33 taillights. it was also rb powered. i cant for the life of me remember tho whos car it was... this was the season opener in wall NJ... i had this idea as well, after i saw that car, to have the r33 tails in the rear and s15 front end. un fortunatey i also cant remember what chassis it was. it wasnt a hatch tho. either s13 coupe or s14... after careful consideration of what conversion to do, i decider to just go with a hippo front bumper and go sleeper style untill i actually find an aero package that i really like. the jdm fromt bumper looks so much cleaner than the us counterpart imo. thats all if i decide to build a hatch. if i decide on anpother s14 ill probably change it to s14.5 front and rear lights, and do an aero paackage later... im also going fot the mostly stock or very subtle sleeper style...

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
kinda looks like a ferrari till u see the "se"

Everyone seem to have the same phase to go through , at least most of us got it before we had a car ...Keep it clean and stock , its already a big project to keep a car in mint shape....

when i see any skyline / gt-r converted kit car1) They never looks as good as the original R32/R33/R342) Initial reaction: "Oh cool, is that a Skyline? Wait... no, it's just a (Civic/Integra/240SX)"

I say it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks cause its your car and if you wanted to bolt a fake jet engine to the roof that blows bubbles as you ride then do it. As long as its not endangering anyone else if you like it thats all that matters.

Wow cant believe I missed this thread. Ok, I didn't read everything because I'm kind of lazy but no 240 should have a skyline rear end put on it. Extensive labor and materials cost aside, it would probably look like a goofy Ellen Degeneres/Rosie O'Donnell mutant freak show. The Skyline body is just too big for the 240. The tail lights are way too big.

Thats your opinion mr. not slow, but who cares its not your car. mines got r32 front and rear and i love the way it looks. but thats MY opinion. it looks like you put a silvia conversion on yours, so you shouldnt say anything about how nobody should do stuff to THEIR car.

u cant compare putting s chassis parts on an s chassis to making the back of the car look like a skyline . ur right though, its YOUR car so do it how YOU want but imo the sil front is way better for conversions than skyline tail lights

anyone can put s chassis parts on an s chassis. Thats not what this is about tho, and i didnt start this thread either. I did however do r32 taillights on my s13 fastback. I am only saying that people are flaming on some dude for doing that to his car,and they dont even know anything about it. I put alot of work into my car to make it my car. I am not dissing silvia front ends either but it has been way overdone cause of how easy it is. but for a more advanced car guy i went for more of a challenge. cause you dont really see r32 taillights on a fastback, at least not done right.

Edit- Apon looking over at the first post not raged by the idea i see it was made in 06 ... who brought this topic back?

How about this. Leave the car looking how it is and put the money into a engine build or swap. Adding some fancy skyline body kit isnt going to make you go faster.

Plus hows it going to look when you pull up with that and still have a stock KA? Oh this is the economic skyline with a 4 banger...

Putting skyline parts on anything but skylines is just going to get you laughed at for playing to much NFSU and will show the world how much of a silly ricer you are.

ok white comet, who are you to even think about flaming on anyone when you yourself are trying to make your 240sx fastback look like a 180sx. and dont think you can just change what i write to make it seem like youre right cause that just shows how ignorant you really are. i mean really how hard is it to change taillights and front ends that bolt right up.
