There is actually a few known right now.

this is probably one of the first being made right before your eyes and still being worked on.

There is a white one in CA, a purple one in houston , TX; the white one in Japan,a gold one in japanand another white one.

and of course yours Truly in Dallas, TX.of course i am breaking the tradition by getting rid of the s13 stock headlights and going for more (supermade/camaro style using fogs)

two s13 silvia ones, a gold one and a yellow one.



i have missed one more car while i was researching this conversion. but it was deathly ugly. it was a S14 body with s13 front and rear hatch converted.........(you dont need to look for it)

Inside also actually sells the conversion fenders... with all the work done to blend the contours of the S13 and S14 fenders together:only "downside" is that, like most other aftermarket fenders nowadays, they're flared a bit over stock...

I'll update this for Paul.

I believe he's still deciding on the paint color for the car but its pretty much done.



New FMIC and REAL Greddy RS BOV

He still thinks the car isn't low enough lol.

Glad you guys like it! Redclaw will pop in here sooner or later.

Only the low beam.

Hi guys, I talked to Tan today and well, I might be rocking Tans' current zenki front end. The reason for this is because of his soon to be upgrade from insurance $$. The Reason I am putting this project to a close is because I rather not focus on body work because it is a drift car, and well as you may know drift cars break front ends. I also do not want to worry about my front end breaking mid-drift.

And for your information, It is H7 HIDs for a Subaru WRX converted to H3 Housings #you were close Tan.

I will be selling the front end/ bumper and hood to pay for the pink paint or accrue some of my losses or gains for the money spent.

The gap is there because we just welded up the s13 headlight brackets on the s13 brackets but did not riveted the top ones correctly. The gap is always there and frustrates me.

Thanks for the comments, but right now the front end is not practical for me, but it does look nice at some times and I do get awesome compliments. Today at a car meet, four people went up to me and said nice s13......Then looked at the back and had there jaw drop.

Shhh its a Secret yo!

If you are interested on buying Paul's front end feel free to email Me or Paul,Best bet might be to hit me up cause Paul doesn't get on as much as I do.

crazy build, looks sick, do the pop up lights actually pop up or do you have to set them at what height you want by twisting th knob actuators?
