Stupid question

[lone_Shinobi]

This may sound like a dumb question but I just want to be sure. Is the gap size between the 180SX front end and the Silvia front end the same?? Because I am in the middle of ordering a FMIC but I just want to be sure that all FMIC made for the S13 will fit behind the front bumper since I have a Silvia front end on a hatch I just want to play it safe. Thank's guys. :rawk:

Yes it is, but it doesn't matter because you still have to trim down your bumper support.

My FMIC fit fine (with cutting the bumper support, of course) behind my pignose front, but when I swapped to the Silvia clip I had clearance issues where the lower inside headlight clips went/ where the grille clips in. I made it work, but I wish my IC core was a little shorter!
Or, get a really tall intercooler and rock the no grille look! Just something to look out for... good luck!
