I know its not really a sileighty, but im installing the silvia front on my HB 240.Should i have 180sx panel in the back to make it official (at least by looks, anyway DONT FLAME IT)? With quarter windows and stuff? Or what ever the silforty is fine with me.

do it if it makes you feel better, but the money could be better spent... if anything I'd put on the type x tail lights, I always liked those :D

Heathen!

I think it looks good on both really, but just the name sileighty makes it seem cool, if not only the looks :cool:

I can say it doesn't look SWEET,IT LOOKS INCREDIBLE GAY. It looks like a ricer prelude,who races every one at a stop like and gets his a$$ kicked every time and has never won a race in his life,except against his best freinds honda civic with 97hp.

I like it. Oh well, each to their own.

If I manage to get that hatch I have my eye on, there will be a full 180SX TypeX exterior conversion (engine=KA24det)

edit: They have rear 1/4 windows that say sileighty on them, but they're very very rare.

wow where did you score those from? I haven't even seen those before, only the 180sx ones.

Oh well I think it looks clean and as long as the owner is happy with it thats all that matters.

S14 king that does look nice, but i do think however that a coupe looks a lot better than a hb with that front end. it just looks more i guess you could say "natural" than the hb does with it

S13 can go on either and look hot.S15 on the other hand looks like horrid sh1t on a coupe. It's just a complete clash with the curved lines of the headlights and the rest of the car being very boxed off...it's nasty. =\

I agree with everyone else that a s13 silvia front end on a 240sx fastback looks like a**. If you forget the fact that its so uber-jdm for a moment for a minute, you to will see this.-I met a kid with a "Sil-80" once, who said he was into drifting. He told me he spent all his "modification budget" on his jdm front end. I laughed so hard at him, my wendy's frosty came out my nose.

I do. And Silvia front ends are sexy on hatches. ;)What's ugly is pop-up headlights up.

I'm partial to sileighty's (duh!) But I like the front on the coupes as well. I agree that changing your quarter windows is a waste of money.
