Hey guys, im new here on NICO and im wondering how far the interchangeability between the silvia s15 and 14 goes. I know for the SRs are practically the same and the diffs, turbos, rods (s15s are stronger), and injectors are interchangeable. I know you can get a s15 dash into a s14 and fits like a glove but the bottom corners of the dash are an inch too short for the brackets. Obviously the s14 door panels wont fit with the s15 dash. With that said my main question is if the s15 doors will fit on a s14 or atleast the door panels. I have been looking for a couple hours with very little luck. :tisk:

I have a 95 240sx (base) (ka obviously ;) ) but im buying a s14 front clip for the SR. So i would be doing a SR swap, manual conversion, RHD conversion, and JDM digital climate control conversion :chuckle:. Yes i know, its alot of work and the RHD may not be worth it to many of yall, but is for Syrena (s14s name lol). Im up in the air with the s15 dash and door panels and i dont want to be half way done to find out it cant be done. But thanks guys, your friend, BLITZ. :woot:

Since everyone is being ssoooo helpful, i took another look and the s15 doors wont fit s14s (unless you have money to blow on a worthless mod and you can cut up the door and still make it look good). The door panels look like they can fit so even with modification it should work out.

Why dont you use the S15 sr20det engine with six speed transmission + entire rear subframe

That way you get the nice cruise RPM, the new subframe components (low mileage bushings/arms) and a lower mileage cleaner engine (most likely). The price is not much more, usually an extra $500 for everything. There is one on ebay right now in Canada for $3500 includes the entire rear subframe, driveshaft, engine, transmission, etc... all including shipping anywhere in the USA $3500.
