Where can I get the front of a S13 or S14 for cheap. The 2nd ? is, is there anyway to ensure that you get the lights bumper and fenders. I want to build a Sil-eighty and my wife wants to build a S14.
Last ? assuming my HP goal to the wheels is 450-500 what kind of parts would that take and how much would it be. I know things like a bigger turbo, IC, address Fuel delivery needs, probably a remapped or Standalone ECU will be needed but since I've never really messed with anything else but a Honda I'm completely green in this area.
Any comments or opinions would be nice.

Are you in the US or overseas?

holy crap man.
okay... first of all, be prepared to spend LOTS of $. prolly around say, 25Gs to do both cars at least, and I think that's a generous guestimate.
Like NRcooled said, what country you're in makes all the difference in the world for what setup to go with, and what's available to you.
1) when u say s13, u mean, silvia? 240sx? 180sx? 200sx?
s14, u mean 240sx? silvia? or 200sx?
2) building a sil80, for s13 chassis means getting a kit, many places do these... if you're in the US, check with Grumpy at www.mckinneymotorsports.com he's the man.
3) 4-500whp?! I'm assuming neither car will be meant for daily driving then? You're looking at having a fully built engine for KA, and at least some upgraded internals for SR
I think you need to give us more to go on detail-wise for more help to come <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

He's from the atalnata area (IP address) So he has close access to unstable-hybrids. The only sensible way to get a semi-reliable 500 rwhp would be to swap a rb25det or similar engine IMHO.

400-500 rwhp is not gonna be that easy on a SR..I agree with Yoshi that it will take alot.
If he was to go the HKS route (since HKS products is what I know).
HKS GT Special Full Turbine Kit- GT2835 turbo, "special" Racing Wastegate, DP, stainless manifold.....$4280.00
HKS Type S FMIC w/ AL piping.....$1180.00
HKS FCON-S Fuel controller.....$700.00
HKS FCON-S Harness.....$200
HKS EVC IV Boost Controller.....$648.000
Dyno Tuning (avg $150/hr x 3 hours) must be done by HKS Pro Dealer.....$450.00
HKS Twin Power.....$698.00
HKS Fuel Rail.....$270.00
HKS FPR.....$145.00
OK that's just a start...you still have gauges, maybe cams, maybe cam gears, maybe head gasket, fuel pump, fuel injectors, misc fuel lines, exhaust, turbo timer, downpipe and INSTALLATION!!!!!!!
Not cheap man 400-500 RWHP on any car is expensive
