S13 Silvia Conversion

[Vashxthexmonkey]

Alright, I've already used the "search" button and nothing has come up. So I come to you, my fellow bretheren, to point me into the right direction.

I am looking for a guide to installing the S13 Silvia Conversion. I have all the parts needed, all the wiring, I just need a guide to help me.

Helpful replies only please.

what do you need help with? its pretty much a direct swap, just put the new parts where the old ones were. only thing different is the lights.

um.. the bolts match up... if you can take the old front off then you can put the new one on...

Thx, I kinda figured... But you guys wouldn't happen to have a link to someone w/ pictures would you? :-P

I have two 240SX's. 1 w/ a Silvia front, the other without. I'm putting the Silvia front on the one w/o it.

The one w/ the Silvia front looks half-assed, so I dont want it to come out the same way when I do it.

I'm a perfectionist when it comes to my car... :sigh:

i don't know how to answer how-to-take-of-your-T-shirt-from-your-body like question.

pop up your headlights. so you can reach the bolts. unbolt the headlights first, in that way, it's much easier to take off the bumber.

take the bumper out. (bumper support too.)

and then fenders.

Take off the wire from old popup head lights and plug it into silvia head lights.

take off the brackets.

now your car is naked.

put the silvia brackets in, fenders, bumper and then lights.

you can change hood later. you can still useUSDM hood with silvia head lights. it won't hit anything but give you nice air intakes. I personally really like that but people call it Ge-Th-oo.

seriously, i wouldn't pay shop like $79 per hour for just the silvia conversion. and it'll take 2~3 hours to do it. good luck with saving your money.

its not that hard

if you can take the parts off(easy) you can put em back on(easy as well)
