It's ugly as sin. The only one that I thought it looked halfway decent on is the s13.4.5 in order from front to back. That car looks decent but still isn't my style. Dousan, I'm pretty sure I got that scan from you. Too lazy to post it.
Maybe a zenki S14 front might look OK on an s13 fastback if done right but I doubt it.

It's been done in Japan, not sure about here in America... probably less than a handful if any.
I'd imagine that it's harder and more expensive than your average S13 or S15 silvia front end conversion, but it sure is cool looking (IMO).
its been done in america, some guy in the bay area has a champaign colored fastback with the front end, but looks like he didnt really take the time to finish it off. The pic is floating around here some where you jsut gotta search...

Holy shit son! :o
I try not to hate on people's cars, but that just looks bad with a completely stock car and stock aero...
Definitely not cool looking without crazy wheels/body kit/paint/etc.. (IMO)

That orange one up there only looks half good. The front end looks like shit on a 180 but the back end seems to be working for me.

I think the owner of Tech3 here in San Jose, CA owns that car? I could be mistaken. Anyway, I wouldn't even know if they're still open, I can't find their contact info.

that blue 180sx looks really hot with the s14 zenki front end!!! i think that the zenki front end looks nicer on a 180sx then the s13 or s15 front end conversions!

s13 hatch + zenki front = hot
s13 coupe + kouki front = hot
s13 hatch + kouki front = weird
s13 coupe + zenki front = s14 zenki :bash:

i've got an s13 coupe with kouki front. every body that has seen likes it. i'll try to borrow a digital camera and take some pics. it is a lot of work. way more than i expected if you want good results. if i had to do it again i would have never sold my hatch and did s15 conversion. kouki body lines match s-13 coupe better than they mactch s14 lines. just my $.02 though

so what custom work needs to be done? do the body panels line up or what? For those who HAVE done it, let us know what needs to be done to make it work and look good.

is it just me or does anyone else find that the hood area looks really big for the rest of the car??
SilviaDriver
03-01-2005, 09:58 PM
it looks big becuz the rest of the car looks like ass. no side aero or even rear. not even good lookin wheels.
yeah that car looks like shit IMO
the only nice one is the blue zenki front
that's cuz zenkis are the shit
...and it has a sweet hood
NismoSilvia270R
03-01-2005, 10:18 PM
i like the one from driftsession because its the cleanest conv done. the panels look good and the lights arent in some wierd-ass angle.
add a kit and wheels, of course itll look great, but the conv alone is cleaner than the the others ive seen.
IMO
btw, im also curious bout how much work it takes to make it fit that nicely...
infinitexsound
03-01-2005, 10:39 PM
in any conversion.. its alot of reaming, extending, shaping, welding, bondo, primer....the list goes on and on... just wait for a FB glass conversion kit... saves the hassle of all the effort if youve never ever done bodywork before... plus FB is easy to work with instead of welding two fenders together just to make a certain corner light line up correctly...oh yeah use a good solid measuring tape and write down each measurement... be prepared to purchase another vehicle and set aside ur mentality because ur gonna go thru alot of stress.....

the fenders dont fit at all, had to cut like 1 inch to make it fit was a bitch, the front of the S14 is like 1/4 wider each side, my car dont have bondo at all, i live in mexico, the guys than help me to fix my car are old fashoned body shopers, they use hammer and lots of time O_o, i really need to take more pics of my car but i dont have a camarera any more, i will see if i can borrow one at work ^_^

DO you have the time and money to drop on a paint job like the blue car? or the time to make it a show car like the orange one>? if not just go with the s15 front end it looks cleaner and some typex lights , and if you really want to be creative to and s13fastback with an s15 front end and s14 tail lights
