Thank you for making the value of my S chassis increase.

lol. I don't know what I hate more, people putting 300zx fronts on s14's or comments like these. Sorry, but the value of your car didn't increase. it's a piece of shit from the 90's.

Nothing from the ZX would look good on anyother car but the ZX

How about a Hippo front conversion and a cheetah rear conversion?

HIN/NOPI would love this atrocity.

Brian · 06-05-2009, 10:53 AM

what is "convertion" ?

Is that where you change a car into a vert?

ATLspeed · 06-05-2009, 10:58 AM

lol^...someone jus do a photoshop of it so he can see what his car would look like.

ATLspeed · 06-05-2009, 11:00 AM

its like trying to mate a cat with a dog to see what will be born...it wont happen. if you MAKE it happen then ugly comes from it. Like the movie The Fly

Enna · 06-05-2009, 11:13 AM

Lol at the BFE comment. I thought Bro's loved driving to BFE to 'use' their trucks?

Edit: HAH someone seriously did it?! Eh... seriously waste of both cars.

silviaguy240 · 06-05-2009, 11:25 AM

nah, quicko photoshop i did. i even lowered it.

NismoRider · 06-05-2009, 11:44 AM

I'm leaning towards the view of the majority here. It wouldn't work too well. The front it just too wide and even if you did the wide body rear panels it would leave this massive dip where the doors are. Plus, converting the fenders to go onto the body will leave a weird angle affect if I'm not mistaken. Personally, if you want a front end conversion on an S14 zenki, try either a kouki or a S15 front end conversion. The body lines would match up perfect and it's a proven to look damn fine. But it's your car dude, you paid for it and it's your money going into it. At the end of the day, your car is there for you to enjoy. Do with it what you will. Just make sure that if you are planning to do this, that you plan out everything exactly. Or you'll end up with a lot of parts you can't use and some wasted money that could've gone to better use. But that's my two cents.

man, Where is that rating system when you need it. if we still had that this idea would get you into the negative red status.

josephin510 · 06-05-2009, 12:22 PM

see what happens when molding goes wrong.

OBEEWON · 06-05-2009, 12:54 PM

do a cefiro conversion.

blueshark123 · 06-05-2009, 01:09 PM

if u really wanted a 300zx conversion on a 240 atleast do it to a s13 it will flow better then a s14 but still is gay no matter what

Does anyone no the stock heights from the top of the bumper to the ground? On both cars.

Has it been done? Have you seen it? No, most likely not. So don't make assumptions on something you "THINK" will look ugly.

If you do it right anything could look good!

if u take a dog turd and paint it yellow and spray twinkie spray on it,its still a fucking turd, a nice smelling turd, but a turd...same with this suggested theory...

chassis are different, 300zx is def wider, which would mean either cutting down the hood and front bumper, or some oversized wheels...that will be wider that the rears...

body line would not mesh, simply put, no matter how much work u would put into it, yes the quality of work would be impresive to do it right, and u would get praise for taking the time, overall the wow factor would go straight to the shitter.

you know what looks like it came that way from the factory and flows with the car? the stock front end. you know what doesn't? ANYTHING ELSE

fucking clown shoes, man.

Its not like that I'm talking about when people do ugly things/butcher their cars just to be different such as everyone has kouki fronts I'll just do a z32 front conversion *cough* op *cough*

Andrew Bohan · 06-06-2009, 12:21 AM

i will never ever ever ever ever ever sacrifice quality to gain uniqueness.

being unique is fine.

being unique by being better than normal is cool.

being unique by making something worse is a terrible idea.
a burned down house would probably be the most unique house on the block, but no one wants to live in the burned down house do they?

i saw a 3rd gen camaro front on an s13 once. that shit was hideous.

silvia front on an s13 is easy to do and it looks nice.
s15 fronts look nice too. if those are getting played out, be unique by NOT doing a conversion, and get some sweet paint color or interesting stickers or something.

thatdrifterguy · 06-06-2009, 12:30 AM

it actually looks good.............................................. lol

do odyssey headlights!

Exactly what I'm saying/trying to say

And op if you like the z32 front end that much just get a z32

I am willing to bet that he does not have an S14 OR a Z32 front end, and has taken us through all of this shit for nothing at all.
