hi there to all people i just finish my s13 conversion to s15 it takes us 7 hours to finish this i thought takes a day or 2 days or more, if you have a lot of people working in it its better, cos u know why all the ideas will come together and then its easy to modify things even if its impossible, i didnt buy any expensive parts just to modify it.... just go to home depot and youll be good

of course i have to get it painted and i will get side skirts, im not like u guys that has a lot of money, i got 2 kids family comes 1st then my toys ok, thats how you do it, ya h its good though but its not that perfectly 100% fit cos its only aftermarket its not oem, and i didnt get any expensive parts just to do the conversion, and the most part im proud of even though its not that good at least i did it my self and my friends and we didnt go to any shop just to pay around 1000 to 1500 just to install it....

parts that i used:

this is the place i bought my s15 front conversion

http://www.240sxmotoring.com

front s15 conversion origin lab body kit stylishwith 2 front fenders 20 mm wide,oem vis carbon fiber hoodfront s15 bumper stylish by origin laband oem 1998 s15 headlight( ichi-go )total is 2000 for the parts

things you needed:

metal cutter,drill,paint is optional if you want to paint it in your same color of your car,bolts and nuts,zip ties,and for the bracket dont buy anything and dont buy radiator core support just cut it, buy in home depot a metal that you can bend it and customize it to make it fit in the old bracket to connect your headlight. thats all and in regards to the hood you can use the s14 hood latch you dont have to drill any hole to the body of the car you just have to move 1 hole in the body going up and then 2 screw in the hood and your good...and for the lock in the hood you dont have to buy a hood pins or hood locks cos you can move your old lock goin forward just lossen the bolts and get some big nuts and put it behind it until your hood will straight up in the hole of the lock.. ok

Impressive, but not quite as impressive as forming complete sentences with periods.

it takes me about an 1hour -1hour 15minutes to remove the entire front end of a 240. thats using ratcheting hand tools and by myself. Is this supposed to be an impressive seven hour job? Im proud of you man, but Im not really sure why...

btw.....ummm....why didnt you paint the front bumper when you painted the fenders?
