I asked this on another forum jsut following it up with another post here since the activity is higher here. But I was wanting to to do a s13 to s14 front end conversion what parts do i need from the Radiator harness itself to do this? Also someone said that the bumpers dont fit eachother. Was curious about that since they sell s13-s15 and s14-s15 bumpers and I would assume that they all fit eachother. So if a s13-s15 fits the same way a s14-s15 does then an s14 should fit with a s14 right?

sorry. . no firsthand information here. . . but as far as i know of, the front ends are NOT hot-swappable. . . i think there was a post earlier that the front end of the s13's are a big pain in the *** to get off vs. the s14's are cake. . . that alone tells me that there's some mechanical difference between the two. . .

they make s15 conversions for honda's too. . . doesn't mean that everything will fit the same. . .

Well its seems to me that maybe the big differences are the headlight mounting brackets on the radiator support. Also the Bumper support bracket that runs along the front and hooks on the left and right panels where the lights sit. The only other major thing would be the latch for the hood. I will investigate more I think i might do this conversion i like the s14 better than the s15 anyways.
