hey everyone looks like im letting of this project because im focusing more on other things...i have a complete S13coupe shell for sale that has the S15 silvia front end conversion done, i've had this front end put on professionally and its all OEM Metal and still has the spots for the S15 sidemarkers also....both front and rear fenders are rolled and pulled so it can fit wider wheels and tires....the car has the 5 lug conversion done already to it and has the rear 300zx brakes done already....im asking $3000/obo...i want this whole shell gone im open to offers but no lowballers ...everyone who knows about this conversion getting done knows it can be costly to have this done right....and all the parts are brand new....never been painted...just been sitting in my driveway collecting dust....if you are interested hit me up ...559-355-1197 thanks im located in fresno CA

i dont see where u see the gaps at because i've looked this car over and there are no gaps where there shouldnt be ....but like i said its obo so shoot me a price....this is a flush fitment done by TNT auto body in sacramento, CA the only gap i see is the one between the hood and front bumper and thats normal

i think iLagX is talking about the alignment of the fenders and front bumper.

cant really get what you paid for it. besides the fenders are already been pulled

just some help for you, the radiator support isnt required for these swaps. most people dont know that.

it isn't, but it will work and look better. just like s14 zenki going to s14 kouki, the cutouts for the headlight bulbs on the radiator support are different, so it is more difficult to change your bulbs. you can always cut your own cutom holes with a hacksaw or something, but some people prefer oem than just "making it work."

for s15 conversion, i recall reading somewhere that the s15 radiator support doesn't really fit s13 on the bottom and for simplicity only the top half portion should be used.

so cuttting off factory installed radiator support therefore weakening the structure of the car, an welding on a different one is the est way? i'll stick to factory structure welds. especially considering all you need are the holes (cut mine out with blowtorch, smoothed with grinder. on the s13, you also need to replace the light pillars (brakcets?) witht the light brackets used on silvia conversion.

so to sum up, pay someone to cut into the structure of the car, trust them to reinforce and reweld properly,
or cut out two holes and replace light brackets.

Agree with FRpilot on this. iLagx is a lowballer, just jealous your front end is metal.
Professional body shop and professional results.

As far as the guy above me stating structure has been compromised knows little about what he's talking about. Do you know the support is basically a piece of sheet metal? Only structural part is the brackets and those are tack welds or screws. And have you seen how flimsy 240 sheet metal is??
Structure is mostly all in frame.

All I see is shitting on this guy's thread. The front looks good, although not my kind of style.
