so yea in socal 240 shit is becoming more demanding, and I rememeber when kouki taillights use to cost around 300, now theyre like 600.... so i was wondering.... last time i looked into it its about $900-1000 for a s13 front end conversion.... but i got quoted for a conversion going for $700 (dunno if its projectile / nonprojectile yet) so... is that a good price?? not sure if it went up again

I have an s13 front end on my s13. It came with the car from the factory :keke:
Also, it's "projector."

What does it come with? Front bumper, carbon fiber hood, fenders and lights? Good deal if it has a carbon fiber hood. So so if not.

projectile lights would shoot flaming balls of fire out of them when you turned them on, which, in all honesty, would be pretty boss.

i bought them at 450 from courtesy nissan liek 3 years back. 600 are u sure, no way? and 300 back then? ebay didnt even have them like 3 years ago. infact ebay only use to have 1 or 2 pages when u typed in 240sx in the search. but i did luck out on a silvia s13 front end for 850 like 4 years ago.

haha.. u remember when s13 kouki tails used to be 300? i think nismo parts used to be like 450 and that was the cheapest.. how do you know the prices back then when you just hopped on the bandwagon?

i think because he tried to buy those 300 taillight most likely just the two side for his honda conversion which was the craze back then

when I had my coupe and wanted to do the Silvia front end it was running around $700-$800 Shipped for Projector Headlights(aka Projectile if that is what you call them), fenders (metal), Hood (metal), Grill (Silvia), Bumper (OEM Aero) Signals, and all supports and wiring. Just keep looking and sometimes you can find the parts seperate for cheaper instead of in a full "conversion"

parts are cheaper now, the only thing that is MORE expensive is used parts like s14 seats and etc junkyards KNOW what they have now.. damit
