umm....I'm going to leave the flaming and bashing to someone else.... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'>

I will keep it simple....my advise if to find a 95-96 if you plan on changing the front end to the S-15 look....that is what you mean right? &nbsp;It's just cheaper and the taillights are better. &nbsp;As for the SR it's worth it and I have heard that its easy to do.....

But forreal I really think you should have done some searchin' before making this thread. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'>

So which silvia front end are you planning to convert your silvia front end to?



The S14 240sx front is the same as the S14 Silvia front end, save for a few minor differences in the headlight construction (glass vs. plastic, projector placement slightly differs, and the light spread is reversed) and the lack of a stock front lip spoiler (which is a dealer option).

Actually, the bumper covers were completely different 240SX vs. Silvia in '97-'98. &nbsp;The Japanese bumper was smoother and the front park/turn lights wrapped around the side.

The front lip spoiler we didn't see in '97-'98 (except as a dealer option) was a standard item on European and Australian models (200SX) which used the same bumper we had.

First off, I agree with GT specR, get a 95-96 s14, they'll be cheaper, easier to find, and use that for the swap.

Second off, I think if you can do engine swaps in other cars, it should be easy for you, otherwise, I'd find someone who has. Also, make sure you get a complete uncut wiring harness. And get a SR from a reputable dealer, that way you KNOW what you're getting. &nbsp;I've heard of many people getting crappy engines, some don't even start.

Third, before doing anything, go through this forum, 240sx.org, and freshalloy.com(including forums), read through FAQ's, etc. &nbsp;and learn as much as you can right off. &nbsp;If I'd done that, I'd have a monster 240, as I spent a LOT of money unwisely, I only wish someone would have told me that back when I bought my 240.

Uhh how bout you don't sell the talon <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

Yeah, don't mind tnord, he likes flaming noobz lol <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> Yeah anyways. That whole jdm thing is bs and a waste of money. If you are doing it cuz of the cool JDM word, than read my first sentence. if you really like these cars, then get a 97 240sx, leave the front the way it is, and look into turboing the ka. Yeah, lotsa people say it's a truck engine, but in hte n/a mode it kinda puts out more than n/a sr. And it's .4L bigger!! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'> and turboing it is gonna cost you as much as the swap.
