s14.5 write up

[Globalsilence]

I will be converting my s14 to an s15 in a week and want to know if there is a write up on the net somewhere I can use as a reference. I searched the site, and google but no luck.

get that flame suit handy :P
S14-S15 is by far the easiest... get quality conversion fenders (read as: NOT GTP/Race-On/VIS) all other stuff is pretty bolt-on... search harder, there are at least 6 ppl here with the conversion.

If u want a general idea, u can look at my S13-S15 write-up here:
www.360realms.com/S13-S15/

but mostly, just search a lil harder with some different keywords, you'll find what you're looking for.

1998 called

they want their swap back

meanwhile, its almost all bolt on like yoshi can tell you

good fenders = good money and im guessing youll buy cheap shit since the search i did came up with like 3 pages of shit

I should have been more specific, which is my fault. Images of cutting the rad support is all that im after. I already have the parts, chargespeed fenders, bumper, hood, and lights.

you dont need pics, its very self explanatory. heres what you do:
-unbolt oem headlight
-attempt to bolt up s15 headlight
-cut at the points where it hits

:bash:

use my cartoon s15 as a guide, if it looks like that when its done, you have successfully converted your s14 to a full fleged s15, congratulations!

[Revolver Ocelot]

Just look at it and you will know where to cut and then after that, you'll know where to cut again cause you messed up a little the first time. :coolugh: Just from my own experience. Or you can just be lazy and buy the S15 core support. Oh yea and by the way, dont let your friends convince you that it will be fun for all of you to get drunk and attempt to do the conversion. It doesnt work out to well. Just a little personnel advice.

does the s15 core support bolt right up to the s14 chassis?

just cut and fit, cut and fit.

core support doesn't blot in, it welds in.

Core supports are all welded mang.
Cut/weld if you're going to replace it.

edit: oops. just like the guy above said :P

[devonkyle77]

ok, well is there a benefit of getting s15 core?

[sunnys14]

s14.5's look so damn clean

[axiomatik]

I don't think they look right. S15 fronts look better on s13 hatches, but the best on s15's

no complete waste of money in my opinion
