the other ones that came up in my first search were for sale or want to buy threads in the classifieds section.

give it a look, if i recall, it has some halfway decent insight.

is the entire thing just about the front end? i couldve sworn there was stuff about whole conversions in there. like the one at the very bottom of the first page was a full r32 coversion.

as for rear specific conversion, im not sure.

if i remember correctly, there was a hatch on a magazine that had a r32 taillights. i believe it was super street. maybe you can check on their previous issues. any ways i'm doing the same thing on my hatch because the kouki lights are so expensive. actually got the r32 4 door taillights and in the middle of molding the shape of the 180sx lights and transferring them to the r32 lights. i'll post a pics when i'm done.

I remember a coupe on a very old issue of some magazine (super street, import tuner? ...i dont remember)

...normally i HATE taillight conversions and whatnot, but that coupe was cleannn. If i recall, it was blue and it used a sr20det head with gtir ITBs... the car was N/A.

That looks pretty atrocious, slightly less so on a coupe.Atleast you're not trying to do the whole R32 front on S13 thing with the terribly mismatched body lines. Makes me cry every time.

I wish Oneline still made tail lights. Altezza fit if you open up some of the mounting holes.
