Oh, and to add, there really shouldn't be any pictures in this thread if you're looking specifically for "hott" s13.5 coupes, they don't exist. Body lines don't flow and just overall look horrid; you can at least pull it off with a hb (kind of), but not a coupe.
Bleh.

Wtf is this thread made?
There is already a thread on the same thing. How in the hell did you say you searched when obviously you didn't.
S13 has only three options. Pop-ups(zenki,chuki,kouki), s13 silvia front or, Instant Gentelman.
Everything else is ass.

Dave is rite.
As I said in Daryl's thread, that s13.5thing has horrible wheels/fitment. The frontend/aero was thrown on, and the overall build was subpar.
What mags need to have is a quality car. Not just another 240 with crappy aero and stickers thrown on it.
I look in the mags to see people I know forum/real life. I get a huge kick out of that. And seeing that their cars made a little thump print.
When in reality THOSE are the cars that should be shown. I'm not talking about most the subpar cars on this forum, but nice cars like Slizzzzos, PG, Viceroy, ect. Cars that look nice and perform nice.
upSLIDEdown's car made the same mag as a random pic and I was more excited over than then the "cover car".

Yuri's car only looks good because the agressive aero matched his razor tampon front.
Side note: WTF are there like 50 different threads regarding s15 front today.
s15 front on various year s-chassis cars is nothing new people.

Not only that but it gives the haters fuel to dis the whole s13.5 fastback concept. Which actually works bodyline wise compared to a S13 fastback with a s13 silvia front. Ya I said it S13 Sil eighties based off S13 silvia fronts look wrong. The body lines just don't work. Just like a s13 coupe never looked right with the pop light front end. Why it was never meant to be that why . It was just Nissan cheaping out on having to DOT the Silvia front bumper.
A S13.5 Fastback done right does not look wrong. In fact the bodylines of the S15 are rounded just like the fastback. Thats why the front end does look right on the fastback. Though a S15 front end on a coupe is wrong because the coupe body lines are more squared off. Now that is said this thread should be closed.

flip up coupes look good with aero - without it i think they look weird. And i do miss having a coupe - but i still think they're odd lookin

maybe you should lay off whatever your smoking, its either not working or its working to well or its made you delusional to the point of not seeing proper body lines. Oh ya if the 180 front looks so good on the coupe then why in the fuck did they not do it from the factory in Japan for the Japanese market? I'll tell you why the lines are wrong!! Thats why the Silvia had the Silvia front and the 180 had the 180 front. Different bodylines on the same basic unibody. Now if you can't see that you fail in the art department.
Like I said earlier and I will state it again for all the deaf dumb and blind here. The only reason the coupe has the 180 front in the U.S. is because Nissan had already done the D.O.T. testing for the 180sx bumper and did not want to do it a second time for the Silvia bumper. Plus if they slapped the 180 bumper on the coupe they could give it the same chassis name aka 240sx coupe, rather than having to introduce a whole new car name to the U.S. . It was in no way done from a design perspective and the fact that they shoved it down your throat and other americans throats proves how lame americans can be sometimes.

lol.. getting a little heated are we? This, like all style opinions.. are all opinions.. regardless of why coupes have a different front end from the Japanese market, they flow very well..

Agree with drift_freaq on this one, pop-ups on coupes don't flow well but personally I've grown to like them.
Front end conversions are a no-no as a general rule and a waste of money.

There is a difference between getting angry/heated, and just having a educated debate.
Dave made valid points; that I agree with.
Now it's your turn. :P

sorry, but educated debates normally dont involve curse words/cut downs... but again, its all a matter of perception..

These body lines match much better than the S15 front on a coupe.

I love the way the pop-ups look on both the coupe an the hatch. The only think I cant agree with is when some of my friends put the Silvia front on the hatch =/ I know alotta people have it, just dont work with me. And now the S15 headlights on the coupe dont work either. Looks like boo boo! Oh well thats just my 2 cents hope nobody gets pissed. POP-UPS FOR LIFE!!!!!

oh give me a fucking break, you come out of the gates saying I am smoking drugs and I respond in kind out of fun. Oh my sakes alive :eek: I happen to cuss not at you but in general, and your going to start talking about educated debates? Give it a rest Kaotic, you failed to begin with and got a come back for it. Your initial response was not educated,stop trying to pull yourself out of the muck you created and own up to your own bullshit. You fail.
You started with the cut downs. Not I.

Well, aside from the debate there is, I will give my opinion. The S15 front should stay on the S15, that looks the best and it should stay that way. S13's with pop-up lights are sweet, and taht should stay that way. The S13 coupe's look "OK" with a silvia front-end, but not the S15 front-end. Over all I agree with the others that say "POP-UP LIGHTS FOR LIFE!!" Oh and S14's are nice with the kouki front end for sure =)

I thought we didn't get the S13 Silvia front end because the headlights weren't tall enough to get DOT approval...
