Some pics of a s15 converted coupe. Looks pretty good, but don't care for that shade of orange. Reminds me of a pumpkin. :D

Looks like a job well done, don't really look like an S13 anymore, looks a lot more like an S14 with S15 front.

The orange is unique, I kind like it, only thing I dont like is how he has a blue paint scheme on the engine, would look better in either matching orange or stock colors .

That's exactly the words I was going to say if you didn't. ;)

Now I can only say this: How could you not notice it wasn't an S13? :p

Oo more pics. I didn't see the ass end from the photos I had. And with how people do body work these days, I can never tell what the original car was.

ok a couple things. 1st how the hell is he gonna check the guages on the damn passenger side door. isnt that hella dangerous?????? 2nd what fawking good does it do to have your climate control below the steering wheel. isnt that also dangerous?? having to reach between my legs to kill the ac would be akward, unless u had a girl riding shotgun to do it :D

keep in mind it is a show car, prolly rarely ever driven on the streets, at least I hope so.

interior/stereo crap: http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthdown.gif Too blingy. TVs in the trunklid? What's the point of that crap?

bodywork.... ehhhhh, if they used a stock S15 front bumper I'd like it. There are very very very very few aftermarket S15 front bumpers that don't look like crap (or at the least worse than stock). This is not one of them. Too many curves/angles/etc.

engine: nice enough, useless greddy intake, and is that a nitrous system I see? Nitrous... feh. Why the one concession to drag racing when the rest of the car seems built for something else?

See cars like this confuse me... The overall theme of the bodywork/chassis/engine etc. is some sort of drift/JDM rice thing, but then they go completely against that into the USDM rice zone with the stereo and the nitrous kit.

This is not the same car as the white one.

Well first the C pillars looked wrong for an S13 coupe, but I figured that could just be the angle, but what really sealed it was the strut towers. The line things that go all over it aren't on the S13.
