Ok, well since everyone has an s15 conversion on their s13 HB... i was wondering if anyone has pics or info of an s14 kouki (97-98?) models with the sharkeye type front end into an s13.

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

Hoshino Car Style has the orange one that is probably being referred to in this thread.i think it was debuted at auto salon 2004. it has s14 taillights as well.there are a few examples of this type of face change around, but there are not too easy to find.i'm trying to think if anybody makes conversion parts. if so, my guess would be West Yokohama.goodluck.my opinion, it doesnt look too well.

i cant find the thread but its the one with post your picture or something its on the last page and its the last car. the first page had this white 240sx coupe.

sorry cant help but i prefer old school with old school i dont really like the newer style headlights. if u wanna convert s13 aero or zenki with a lip looks nice. its gonna cost though. or if you wanna stay true go kouki bumper. the best 15 conversion ive seen is probably the signal cars but i still think the real 15 looks nicer. the rear fenders on that thing look scary as hell those LINES!!!.

Ahhh, no way dude. you stole my idea. Ive been thinking about doing a s13 vert with a kouki front end. I think it would look sick. plus no one has done it yet. well not that i heard of. then i remember that im poor, and realize i cant do it anytime soon.

I looked into this at one point when I wondered why people were paying so much money for sileighty conversions....wonder why you wouldn't just pick up s14 front parts from a junkyard...when I read up on it before I believe I heard that the fenders/hood...basically the front was too long to bolt up well. Otherwise, it would seem like a decent sileighty conversion, be able to get replacement stuff easier too if needed. That's what I heard anyway, I could be wrong.
