Pictures of black S13 to S15 conversion? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

titanjc · 03-06-2002, 02:18 PM

I really want to get a 240SX and do the S15 conversion to the front end, but I'm not sure what year to get.  Does anyone have any pictures of the 1991-1994 style 240SX with the conversion done? I'm looking for pictures of a BLACK car, as that is what I would probably get.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

.....DROOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLL

titanjc · 03-06-2002, 08:09 PM

Wow, that's exactly what I was talking about.  Got any more pics of that car? Thanks a lot by the way.

That is really nice!!! How much would that cost??

mbmbmb23 · 03-06-2002, 10:03 PM

Whats involved to get the fenders to fit...I heard they dont match up correctly.  How much bondo is required to get that setup?

importfan
has a s13-s15 conversion for only $2999

teampulse · 03-07-2002, 01:10 AM

that is just beautiful!

bladen · 03-07-2002, 10:05 AM

damn, that is ONE HOT RIDE man, DaaaaaaaMN, now i have to rethink my Exterior mod plan, because i was thinking the Veilside cII kit, but now, i dunno. damn that is a sweet car

*sykikchimp* · 03-07-2002, 02:24 PM

I read that you have to weld the S13 and S15 fenders together to get them to fit

*DSC* · 03-07-2002, 02:37 PM

Am I the only one who thinks that it's kind of ugly? The front looks great, but compared to the rest of the body and the wheels, its just WAY too big.  The rear fender flare helps it look a little bigger but it's still ugly.

mbmbmb23 · 03-07-2002, 09:25 PM

Lose the wing, tint the windows, put the OEM S15 hood on there, take off stickers.

then it will be cool.

Nope, I think it's out of proportion too. The s15 front is just too wide for a conversion like that.

zephyr · 03-07-2002, 11:19 PM

i definitely think the sil80 is still the best non 180 front end conversion...sil80 meaning s13 silvia front end
its also the easiest to do
and the cheapest!

BadMoJo · 03-08-2002, 01:29 AM

I agree with transient, It just seems to wide i guess. I just think that the Sil80 is just sweet lookin, can't deny it. <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

MyFirst240SX · 03-08-2002, 01:44 PM

the front has that sexy streamline kinda look then it goes to the S13 body, its a blend i guess <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/inlove.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

Yoshi · 03-08-2002, 05:22 PM

While the s13-s13 sil80 is the easiest, and cheapest to do, it's also been done to death.  The front bumper is obviously an aftermarket one, I forget which, but I don't like it to begin with.  

The guy asked for a s13-s15 sil80 in black so that's what I posted.  Personally I like how the front looks, minus the oversized (and not the best fit) front fascia.

There are few s13 strawberry faces out there, which is why i'm going that route (also because my passenger side headlight is screwed from a bad drift ;P  so I gotta fix the front anyhow hehee)... too bad I'll have to drive nicer after the conversion.... (and no there's no welding of fenders... where did you guys hear that?)  <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hehe.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hehe:'>

There is if you're using S15 stock metal fenders  <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sly.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':sly:'>

JasonNagra · 09-10-2002, 06:02 PM

I like the wheels on that s13/s15 conversion car. I was just wondering what kind they were and also if you know what size. Thanks everyone. <img src="#/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

your not the only one

240Driver39 · 09-10-2002, 07:08 PM

isnt the front end the comes on our cars nice in the first place or am i the only one that agrees on that one...

S13Grl · 09-10-2002, 07:24 PM

I personally don't like the S15 front end on the fastback, but that's just me. I think it's too "new-looking" to be on a body that's 10 years old. It just doesn't match to me, for some reason. I love my front end. I like the lines, I think it's very aerodynamic (while the pop-ups are down,  at least), and it's very Nissan-looking. However, I'd go for an S13 front end on my FB any day... just b/c the body on mine isn't as clean.

Now, how is this a tech question??
