I think it would be a really sweet looking, just lacking the power to back it up. Unless you plan to go KA-T. Be prepared to get people asking where the SR is when you pop the hood (only becuase of the conversion). Oh, and unpainted CF is not rice, its nice.

just say it's a Silvia Q's. You've got MORE than enough power to back that up.
EDIT: On second thought... say it's a Silvia Q's, and say you swapped the SR20DE for the KA24DE since the KA makes more power. :-D

What you do w/ your money is your business and I thin kthe silvia front end is beautiful. But the SR would be the shizznit! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>

Well, here is my view:
If you do it on purpose, meaning you never got in an accident but decided to do a front conversion (any conversion) cuz you think it looks nicer - rice. Since you wrecked your car, and you still got to pay money for something, then sure thing do it!! make it a "wonnabe s13" <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''> I think it's not about riced cars, but about owners of the riced cars... its all about the approach to the problem <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'> ps: my views of rice are kinda harsh... lets say an s13 convo is much less ricey than s15 convo imo |

there is nothing ricey about S15 conversions as long as they are done on Nissans and not Hondas.
I happen to like the Sil 1580 a lot i think it looks better than a standard Sil 80 . Meowth I say go with it . Ace has the right idea and Grant is just giving you crap for the hell of it . Ya Sam's got the setup right now . Who knows what he will have next. That man changes his setups around every couple of years.

I don't think its rice, but it’s not absolutely sexy. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'>
As for the S-15 front end....thats sexy. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

Definately go for the CF hood. You'll save some weight while looking good. Don't forget though, hood-pins are a good idea with a hood that light.
