Guys, what do you think of this conversion?
UPDATE: Updated with new on-the-road pics.
Current wish list: 18/19" Nismo LMGT4

TougeLove · 06-02-2010, 07:44 AM

it pretty clean and it kept the same trunk style, something that often gets hack up on most r34 conversions. still rice but at least its all one color and kept somewhat of the factory lines

DJDANGER24 · 06-02-2010, 08:36 AM

i think if it had better fitting wheels, it would look 10 times better. maybe the 34 rear is too bulky/squared off for this type of conversion to look good.

tricky_ab · 06-02-2010, 05:12 PM

I don't know what to think...

Choku_Dorian · 06-02-2010, 05:41 PM

it looks like a corvette and a grand prix double teamed a hatch.

worangejuice · 06-02-2010, 05:52 PM

Hehe,the best front and rear for the nissans of that era,cool

duballstar37 · 06-02-2010, 06:15 PM

Looks like a crackhead that got a boob and ass job. The rear looks good... by itself, and the front looks good... by itself. It just doesn't flow with the skinneyness of the hatch doors. Some more aggressive skirts may help, but still EHHH.

To each his own... Cool find.

qt_240 · 06-02-2010, 10:18 PM

good buddy work.. but i would never do it.. just not my taste

yeaaaa.... i agree.... some what waste of money but fuck it what ever float your boat right? =)

GripTerror · 06-03-2010, 08:14 AM

eh its not bad actually

sleeper108 · 06-03-2010, 08:51 AM

the rear is too big for the car, but I think with a little work, It could be awesome. Still dig it. why? cause someone took the time and effort to try and make it work, and actually got pretty damn close.

rob22 · 06-03-2010, 01:15 PM

its clean but keep the tail lights on a real skyline.

dtfdanyo · 06-03-2010, 01:17 PM

looks like crap to me...

A+ for effort though?

MandTPhotography · 06-03-2010, 06:04 PM

Needs better fitting wheels.

infam0us21 · 06-03-2010, 11:21 PM

Love the front love the rear, just not together lol. Maybe better pics would help?

Bob_Sagat · 06-04-2010, 12:47 AM

Very well done, but the square rear end doesnt flow with the rest of the car.

greddy2die · 06-04-2010, 10:05 AM

The craftmanship that went into the car looks good. However I agree with everyone else, it just doesnt flow too well, too sharp of angles in the back for a hatch.

I think maybe if it had a different front end it might look better, the S15 front has too many curves compared to the rear of the car.

***Future240*** · 06-04-2010, 12:06 PM

Agreed on craftsman ship. However the the end product looks like utter asshole.

+1. this is one of the better conversions ive seen. In my opinion, if the 180sx had wider doors and a beefier body then it would look better. The s15 body lines dont conform to the r34 ones, and 180sx is just way off. It goes from round and smooth, to thin and sharp, to bulky and squared off. And the r34 tail lights seem to be rather large, however i never liked them to start off so i might be biased.

Good work though, not my cup of tea but definitely something that will turn heads at a show. Fuck haters man, be yourself!

mazersx · 06-04-2010, 03:26 PM

i think its FRESH!! but i don't dig those tail light =/

the front fender are fiberglass should of use steel

ranger240 · 06-04-2010, 03:50 PM

kouki s14 tails look much better on hatches

edit:

PROOF

mazersx · 06-04-2010, 03:56 PM

might as well throw on some g35 coupe tail lights

ATLspeed · 06-05-2010, 06:52 PM

ditto...its still nice tho

blakeZX · 06-05-2010, 08:08 PM

Waste of money, lack of taste. Does that cover it?

*ManoNegra* · 06-05-2010, 10:06 PM

zkrobs4 · 06-05-2010, 10:13 PM

I think it looks great. reminds me of an oldschool bradley gt how the rear is wide and front narrow. Theres a lot of haters on here, but get some better fitment and not many could compare.

kotea · 06-06-2010, 09:55 PM

that much money on a car and it has sunken battle ships at 4X4 ride height?
other then that i dont mind it

Hxc_Nismo · 06-06-2010, 10:04 PM

that looks sweet, I would rock it, too bad it wasnt an s14 but its still looks amazing

Devius · 06-07-2010, 12:24 AM

I love it personally. if i had to change one thing, would be the rims. otherwise id totally love a bodykit like that on my car

Exclusive Nights · 06-07-2010, 12:51 AM

that much be soooooo much work... eh its cool for a show car i guess
