S14 kouki conversion

[LilRebel57]

So I have recently bought a kouki converted s14 and as it sits right now, everything is flush except the hood sits a bit below the front quarters. Not a Super big deal obviously but if anyone could provide some help with what to do to make everything flush that'd be great. I need to get it painted so I would like everything fitting correctly before I do that.

Do you have hood pins or stock latch? Sounds like you may be missing the rubber hood dampeners on both sides if its down to far

I have the stock latch. It's flush with the front lights and grill, but about midway down the quarter panels it sits down about 1/4 of an inch. I'm thinking the hood might be bent.. Idk

I think that is what outlaw is trying to tell you.

The 'height' at which the hood stays is done by the black rubber stops. On some cars, they can be adjusted. I'm not sure about the 240sx.

Now if only one side sits lower than the other, then it could be that one rubber stop is lower or that the hood is actually bent.
