How difficult is it to mount an s14 kouki face on a s13 hatch? I see tons of s13 sileightys and s13.5s, but no s14 faces on s13s. Does anyone know of what all is required to do a clean kouki front end on a s13 hatch?

i have read into this and was also interested, i have seen a few pics, i think if you search you can find them in simmilar topic threads... anyway, what i found out was that you would have to do custom work to the fenders, the easiest (possibly) thing to do is cut the s13 and s14 fenders in half, about where the center of the tire is at... then weld/ or whatever the s14 front half to the s13 rear half.... but then you have to worry about the hood, as i heard it is slightly wider than the s13 hood.... after that is the front bumper brace may have to be trimmed/ taken out, just as in the s13 silvia conversion... and you have to make custom light brackets... i think that is it though... i choose not to do it because of the sheer number of possible custom fabbed parts i would have to make... and well.. i am lazy... but gl to you if you choose to pursue this venture
