Ok I'll answer this before the flames start. All 95-98 240sx' are S14's. The 95-96 are zenki, the 97-98 are koukis. Most parts are the same as far as interior engine etc but the lights, hood, bumper, and fenders are different between a kouki and a zenki. If you want a CARBON fiber hood for your KOUKI you want a 97-98 hood only, a 95-96 hood or a ZENKI hood will not work unless you wanted to change your lights bumpers and fenders.

Ok, first off, they are two different types of S14s.
95-95 =Zenki
97-98 =Kouki
And yes, the front end (hood, fenders, bumper, headlights) are different.

really dude.... like really. but yeah what everyone else said. if you have a 97 you need a hood for a 97 or 98 not just an s14 hood. there are several threads on here that discuss the differences from each generation to the next and the differences between the different model years

thank you very much that helped alot. i know the basics about the years and what they are but i didnt know if there all interchangeable. i might have asked the question alot more noobish then i really am.

none the less thank you very much and that is very helpful. i was looking at a hood that wouldnt have fit. i have a 97 and a 91 s13 i bought my first 240sx with a sr20 in it when i started out.

i only know about sr20s i know nothing about ka`s i just got the 97 kouki from a member here that lives by me and i got the car from him and a week later it had a sr20 installed and a 5speed swap is being done.

ill post pictures once i get it all complete.

again thank you to all you that helped me and not bashed me.
