Honda front end conversion?

[Walperstyle]

Well this is a change...

(being zilvia, i did search to see if anyone posted this, maybe i'm still a noobie?)

[CrimsonRockett]

Huh...never seen that before.

To be honest, it doesn't look all that bad either.

[karl wasabi]

Yeah, I've seen this before somewhere. I think it was VRT.

I personally really like that front end conversion. Something different. It also looks really clean and it's cool to see a new front end on an S13 besides an S14 or S15 front end.

[lost240soul]

well it looks alot better then most of the honda accords with r34 conversion.. lol

[Sil-Abc]

honestly its not that bad but the center grill area needs to be filled with something. Being empty looks weird

[lflkajfj12123]

hella old news braaahhh

its been in option magazines a lot

then it got a feature

also more pics on speedhunters

[lflkajfj12123]

[blueshark123]

it looks like a newer s13 silvia front end i like

[CrimsonRockett]

Hmm, judging by the pictures, it seems like the conversion is fairly easy since it's still using a Silvia hood and fenders.

Just fiberglassed the fenders to flow with the headlights.

Not sure about the front bumper since I really don't have a clue what car it's off of.

Very nice.

[DreamN]

what front end is that? I want to say civic, but I'm not sure at all. Looks pretty decent. I wouldn't rock it, but the updated shot with the grille is definitely tits.

[svensko]

Looks nice but I personally wouldn't have it since I probably can't justify the costs. :hsdance:

^^^ I recognize the headlights as being eighth gen CIvic.

[lflkajfj12123]

its a jdm honda odyssey

http://articles.motortoday.com/testdrive/Odyssey/Odyssey_modulo-1.jpg

odyvia

front bumper is most likely CUSTOM

[Kougeki]

Yeah, i saw it on speedhunters too.
I like it, it doesn't look too tacky.

[dynamicck]

I hate conversions, but damn that is clean.

[ro240sx]

that conversion looks sick. I'd sport but i probably can't afford it.

[gotspins13]

damn thats clean i love something different!
how would you get those headlights and bumper though??

[soreballz]

^Headlights = JDM Land.
Bumper... No clue.

[Kougeki]

I get like an Evo feel from the front end.
Either way, i love it.

[kevmeistah21]

superrr sexy! i like it and it does have an evo feel to it!

[enkei2k]

honda's aren't that 'half' bad now...well maybe just the legit JDM ones

[Enna]

The only thing I dont like is how the bumper slopes down from the headlights. If it was up a bit more, or the slope was shorter length wise, then this would be the greatest thing. Grill or no grill shit still looks badass.

[IIIXziuR]

that paint work is awesome, red wins

[HyperLeafBlower]

Those headlights look a bajillion times better on the S13 than the Odyssey haha, of course the Odyssey is stock. I guess thats a bit of a moot point.

[DALAZ_68]

if Teddy had this front end, then he could sport his hood honda emblem proudly... LOL

[ANVIL]

the first pics make the front very mustang looking to me. but looks 100x better with the silvia style grill.

[slutz4]

that actually looks badass

[Wheres My Key]

not bad at all! it looks prety clean!

[whyrun?]

the mercedes conversion is still my favorite. great wheel fitment though on the coupe.

[Future240]

Seen it and I say no still

[s13poop]

doesn't look too bad with the grill I also love the fitment and the paint

i could imagine this in the states with the front end all ziptied and muticolored :keke:

[DCP94]

That's what the s14 should have looked like...

I'm sure there are just as many of those type of cars in Japan. Not everyone's ba ba ba ballin and throwing down stacks to have a drift car in Japan.

[s13tilldeath*]

yea i would not put that on my car.....

plus im probaly to poor....

I'm sure there are just as many of those type of cars in Japan

Majority of drift cars I've seen are ghetto as hell but then again I live in the poorest prefecture

ugh, i think that can be said for every usdm car and its jdm counterpart :naw:

[atom]

It doesn't look that bad but I have a feeling if this was done in the USA (say Evo headlights instead of JDM odyssey) people here would be like slamming it instead of praising it........

[rms13]

you guys need your eyes checked, that is nasty. Shit nasty.

Can anyone source JDM Odyssey Headlights?: 240SX Forum / 180SX Forum / Silvia Forum: Nissan Forums / Infiniti Forums - NICOclub (http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread?id=412562)

"Don't waste a 240" ... as if people on NICO could ever press for anything to that effect, nor are 240's worth "saving".

[GSXRJJordan]

Haha looks too wide-eyed to me. Dig the fact that it's different and well-executed though.

[soreballz]

LOL. JDM Land = Japan. You get them from... Japan.

[ericcastro]

fugly


maybe if the hood wasnt so crazy.

theres just way to much going on as far as lines and accents on the front of that now.

So put a smooth hood on there and i bet it helps it all flow.

[KOUKIboy]

the mercedes conversion is still my favorite. great wheel fitment though on the coupe.

U got pics of this?? A S chassis with a benz front=gangstuuuurrrr.

[S14TEENZ]

Looks like a mustang............

[Bubbles]

Low, nice paint, good fitment.......it's hard to screw up a car when you have those, I'd like to see it on a shitty, 4x4 mode, stock 240 to get a better opinion.



How can those Nico guys hate on crossbreeds?

wow... Points for creativity thats for sure. Doest look too bad at all actually. Looks like a modern interpretation of the classic S13 silvia front end

Hey guys, lets swap a honda front end onto my GD subaru!

Im thinking Ridgeline lol

[ayuaddict]

kinda old news but i think its awesome. the benzo conversion is awesome as well.

awesome

[ESmorz]

What's the best thing about a 240?



















































You can make it look like a Honda.

:rimshot:

[ayuaddict]

or a benzo.

[ZilviaKid]

wow im gone for a month and someone does this. badass!

time to bust out the duct tape and zipties.

[VNG704]

the front end looks nice but when placed with that out dated rear... does not match. s13 silvia works better with the flow of the whole car.

[BoostSlideWayz]

I like it, i also so a conversion almost similar to this. It was an acura TSX front end conversion. I like it also.

[racecar11]

That looks damn good..

[dOMEmE]

i wouldnt mind this one at all.

[sLiDewAys]

I know I am a bit late on this, but if not posted before here is the place who build the car!

C¡¦B¡¦I sport (http://www.garage-cbisport.com/)

perhaps contacting them might give you a bit more incentive to try the conversion.

[kouki fanatic]

that is actually really nice IMO. looks like just a newer silvia.

[zylvia213]

looks pretty decent.... kinda looks similar to an S2K

[Mr.350Gt]

its pretty sexii....

[NismoDriverS13]

Odesylvia? looks like garbage imo....

first of all its mixing honda with nissan (true crime for Nissan enthusiasts)
second of all it doesnt look all that awesome.

u guys should all go get the conversion kits......lamo! haha

[sLiDewAys]

Its okay for everyone to want different, There are so many people on the jock for the same style it's kind of a relief to see something different and abstract for a change!

[BoostSlideWayz]

i like it, have you seen the acura TSX front end ? looks sexy aswell.

[!Zar!]

I like it.

s14 with the conversion

[Future240]

^Omg that is fucking hideous. I hate crossovers. (yes the car/van things as well as cars with major parts from different makers)

[shishcabobers]

They need to take off the honda grill and acura decal....

[Ceepo]

that s14 wouldnt look bad if it had the acura emblem removed...

[godrifttoday]

what front bumper is that on the s13 custom? or a prodcution kit made to fit the lights?

[brndck]

more pix of that s14 plz! side and rear shots maybe?

[sLiDewAys]

My guess would be of the following,

S13.4 Conversion Fiberglass fenders
s13.4 Conversion Fiberglass Hood
S14 Bumper (I state this because of how it meets with the fender rather than wrapping around the fender like the s13 ones)

Utilizing the Honda Odyssey Headlights with custom brackets to hold them in place.

Cutting, Trimming and filling in where needed, I have yet to work with fiberglass but I have been talking to an auto body friend and said with the above mentioned parts would not be too hard to correct fitment.

if you have the $$$ to do this i say GO FOR IT!

[Future240]

I guess I'm the only one who thinks it looks like asshole.

No prob. :)
i wonder if he took an aero fiberglas honda front bumper and cut he bottom off a bn sports bumper and stuck it on, and then modified to fit...?
pretty crazy work and im very surprised that so many people like it.
especially being that it came from a minivan.
Im waiting for all the hater ass comments like "ricer" and "ghey" "its a honda" etc...

[HyperTek]

well that S13 is kind of tasteless. Its trying too hard.
nasty ass color and painted wheels =(

that grill on the brown one looks stupid and deformed,looked better the first time it was done

[[email protected]]

I think it's more of a combination of everything from stance to paint, for odyvias you really have to have style to pull it off. If you don't its just an eye sore.

[Tantwoforty]

that looks boss

i like the grill from the red one more

[deadghost]

Its only trendy like any other infamous conversion that's made it through the board.You wont catch some one from honda tech dedicating a thread to a Nissan front end conversion! Its just wrong.

I can imagine someone going to great measures to perform that conversion and investing vast sums of money/time in the pursuit of being "UNIQUE" and "FRESH". I can also imagine this person/member crying in regret as he tries to shower off the obscene shame off his soul of performaing that sinful conversion.

True....very true..it still doesn't justify doing that abomination of a conversion. Call me old fashioned but I like to keep my chassis aligned with its designated/original front end. I cant see that Honda odyssey conversion being popular or trendy 1~10 years from now, but I can see a s13 with a sil front. Honda front ends belong on a Honda, s15 front ends belong on a s15, its a unwritten rule....but hey what do I know:blah:
