I am pretty sure that I am going to upgrade to the s14a front end since I got the front end damage. I will be going to the body shop later this week. I just want to make sure that i know alll the parts that I need.

Here is what i know of:

Hood
Fenders
bumper
headlights/corners (will there need to be any wiring changes???)
Radiator support??? <---- not to sure on that,anyone know for sure?

Thats all i could think of. That sound about right? &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'>

you forgot the grill thingie. As for the wiring..I think its the same thing. I'm going to do this as well some time down the road. But i want to go for the GT-R style front bumper. Good luck on all that!

as far as I could tell, there's no radiator difference either. as for the wiring harness, I've never seen the '95 wiring, but just in case you don't know, the '97 use H1 hearlights, so obviously the back end of the assembly is different.

You wanna donate your hood to me?! &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sigh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':rolleyes:'> &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

Through a place called Pinnacle Nissan nissan (http://www.trademotion.com/partlocator/index.cfm?siteid=49&catalogid=0) the total came to be about $1400. &nbsp;That's hood, fenders, bumper, grille, light assembly, and corner lamps. &nbsp;And thats for all new Nissan parts. &nbsp;Also the front lower spoiler is like $200.

Thanks Roly.

I Know this topic has been covered before, hell I knew what parts were needed at one time but it was so long ago I forgot. I looked back at a ton of pages, I just couldnt find it. I know its there somewhere, but with no search it was taking way to long. Now you can call this "one of those topics" But when I need the info NOW I cant spend the time looking through 100 pages of posts. I to am tired of those n00b posts, and I stopped reading them actually. But now since the search is down lets stop being all high and mighty and actually help people out. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hmmm.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hmmm:'>

Well the only thing I am trying to figure out is the radiator support thing. i have read that you need it, but I have also read form people who have done it that they didnt need it. I also heard that you need a "bracket that goes under front bumper" which I am unsure which bracket that is.

But thanks for that Link, they seem to have good prices. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

It's shows the bracket on the illustration... it's like $6 each and you'll need 2.
