Whats up,
I'm posting because I'm trying to find a S15 trunk lid and taillights. A while back I was searching on ebay for Silvia because I was bored and a trunk lid came up and it was a S15 with whole tailights. I'm trying to find a supplier for these because I have made my mind up on getting a 240SX and doing a S15 conversion. (Note I will probably go for the S14 Engine- Im cheap) But I was wondering if anybody knows where I could might be able to find this rare part. Most people when they do a S15 conversion they forget about the tailights and I want this. But if you guys can help thanks alot

you know the s15 rear end is significanatly wider then the s13s right? i've seen it done in japan, but...nevertheless.
um..i dont know hwere you can get it .japan or ebay
and your car wont look ANYTHING like an s15. totally differnt body style (look at rear windows).
you should get a coupe too. it is easier for the trunk part of course. the hatch would be waaaay too much fab work

it would probly be cheaper to import a real S15 then spend thousands on bogus sheetmetal modifications.

Agreed, you would have to pay for parts, shipping from japan, fabrication, and painting. Why not just import the entire car?

Well I would be going from a 98 base but know that Im thinking about it it wouldnt cost that much because my uncle has a Performance shop and he would probably have to look at it and this and that. But actually if you guys have about 15K-18K you can get a S13 imported from SKR Performance up in NJ. They are legit and they had a S13 with about 300 hp drifting at Charlise Compact Power Jam. http://skrperformance.com/Site/MainPage1.htm and they I believe that they have an office in Japan and they can get anything. Just look around. I wanted a 300ZXTT but I was like screw that and get a S14 but I have to look into my uncle grabbing me a engine. But thanks for replying.

Leaving the flaming to someone else.....but here is what I say....

Don't do it, too much custom work, waste of money, S14 taillights are far better than S15 taillights, and why get a 98 and S14 SR if your trying to be cheap?

Your contradicting yourself and asking to get flamed.

i gave a good answer at beginning, but i'm going to be a dick now if you dont mind (no choice). im in &nbsp;piss mood.


why do you want an s15 converted s14?

are you the type of guy who put supra lights on a civic? how about an accord conversion?

i know you are jumping onthe badwagon to get mad show points, but why. you will find quickly that most nsisan guys dont have this 'show car' mentality. we do like our cars night, but there is more function then form.
if you plan to hang out and ask for advice, dont be fucking around trying ot make some crazy show car.
enjoy the car. take it to the track, autocorss, do the sr thing if you want, but dont waste time asking how to make you rcar a rice mobile because you cant be happy with the car as it is. shit, i'd be making my civic a skyline if i had a civic because i would be embarrassed to be driving one, let alone own one.
if you buy an s14, get a 5 lug se or something. do the s15 front end, but dont go all rice boy with the rear. the ooooo factor wont impress anyone but rather 'why waste so much money'

enough for my rant.
good luck at your next car show.


you poser.

Yeah I know I was going to get rocked for that statement. Im not doing the tailights well because they would be a bitch to do. First off im not a rice racer. My car will not sound like a coffee grinder or powered by a weed whacker. I will not put a tanning bed on the back of my car or blind people with neon lights so that way they dont notice how slow my car is. I will not put a system in it that will defeat the purpose of going fast. I wanted to do the tailights not for show but it would be something better then a Rice boy putting Red Emblems on his Honda DX and putting a GTR sticker on it.
Because the S15 Engines come with a weak 6 speed and have the speed indicator in the differential, which leads to problems if I dont get the differential. But yeah looking back at my orginal post I have to say I said some stupid shit. Just wondering what engine do you guys put in a 95-98 I've mainly seen S13 Red Tops and Black Tops in them. But yeah thanks for being bitches at me its turned into a learning experience.

that would be cool to see that. but i might frown to see that you spent more money on the conversion then you could have if you bought one from japan.

10-28-2002, 06:29 AM
Blah, i was going to stay away, but i guess i'll have to jump in.

First off, doing a conversion on a perfectly looking as it is car is rice too. Honestly i believe that doing a conversion on any car (unless u got front end damage) is lame. Making a 98 s14 look like a 99 s15 is the same as making civic look fast: what it looks like isn't what it is. But many will disagree.

Second thing, 98 has a perfect engine as it is. All you JDM wonnabies have gotten the best of me lately. 98 240sx come with the engines that have the same mileage as srs that came from japan. Except they weren't abused as bad and weren't turbo from the factory. If you can't live without sr though, at least put what belongs there: s14 sr motor. Don't be cheap

and if i was into the srs, i'd actually spend extra money to get that 6-speed <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

Yoshi
10-28-2002, 02:54 PM
I thought i'd chime in that the 6-speed tranny is NOT as weak as everyone makes it out to be... People that are bitching that it's weak are hardcore tuners and drifters, and they're pissed that it has probs in the 350-400 whp range.

I SERIOUSLY DOUBT 90% of people talking smack about the s15 tranny will ever come close to those numbers... if you're in the 10% minority, good for you! I wish I had the cash flow you do <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> Everyone else, PLEASE stop spreading rumors.

i, for one, would not be drooling.... if i were a judge at a car show, i'd take points off for headlight and tail conversions. they're over done, they make me sick. they seem to be about as common as fucking lightup wiper nozzles. i saw an mr2 with s15 headlights in a super street the other day. it also featured a "mad blingin'" vertical hood/trunk opening conversion, chameleon paint, probably a 1000lb stereo... that's one mr2 that'll never be fun to drive. fucking carpet queen. whoever said nissan guys think differently is damn right. well, those of us that actually THINK, anyway. there are quite a few guys running around with silvia conversions thinking they're the shit, there's quite a few z32 owners who don't deserve the Z's they've got. i was @ mc donald's yesterday and these rednecks were sitting at the table next to us, talking about all sorts of stupid shit. they get up to leave and we watch them walk outside to a pair of cars: an old civic hatch with altezzas and a beautiful pearl white z32... he gets in and revs it to redline like 5 times, then nearly loses it on the wet pavement when he peels out of the lot. but i digress.

DON'T FUCKING JUMP ON THE BANDWAGON. don't change your car into something it's not. the ONLY exception i'm going to make is the S15 front end on an s13... that's just too great looking.

DON'T FUCK UP A NISSAN.

If i liked s15 convo, maybe i'd be droolin. But honestly i find s14 much more sexy than s15, and don't quite see why people would want to spend 2K on the conversion.

edit: gt spec r - yes it's alright. for 2 reasons in yer case. First, you still gonna have an s14, second you have a front end damage (if iirc) so that makes reasonable. When u get money from someone to repair your car, it's just a matter of taste what you gonna do to it. Even if you put s15 on yer front, there won't be anything wrong with it.

edit 2: on the other hand who gives a fuck what we say. Everyone entitled to their own opinion and is free to do whatever they want to their car. And it won't matter if others think it's stupid. Just don't come back later on crying when yer $2K taillights won't fit....

I'll agree with Yoshi here about the tranny, nissan wouldn't make a tranny that just breaks randomly. &nbsp;From what I've heard on various websites, drifters and high hp guys are the only ones who swap for 5spd.

Ok man although you took back your statement about "the engine you wanted" That is not the reason you are getting flamed. First of all doing a "whole s15 conversion" on a 98 is just a waste if you are changing both front and rear ends you might as well get a earlier model s14 and not waste the very few and limited s14a's left in the US. Second of all the like yoshi said the s15 6 speed would not at all be a problem for the daily driver or non-pro level drivers. I have a feeling that you don't know much about the 240/180/silvia line of cars. I suggest you learn more about these cars that you are trying to breed into one before you do any conversions I bet you will learn to appreciate the oem look of the car. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/baaa.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':baaa:'>

hell yeah somebody is on my side. Right now I dont even have a 240 but my uncle will probably grab me a salavage one and build it up. He does that like a hobbi because his shop has anything you need to fix a car. I'm trying to persude him to do it as a project car for the shoppe so I can get it 1/2 off the price. He is reluctant to go to the S14 engine but thats probably because of my aunt and her marble counter tops. But my uncle said that would be something new and he would try to contact some people that owe him favors in Japan. But right now I dont know if I want a S15 or a old school S13 and pimp it out. I was looking at some of the drift cars. You guys have to download Drift Mix off of Kazaa. Its awesome. But another question does anybody know of anywhere to go drifting in the North East because if I can drift in my Volvo station wagon(hey its rear wheel drive with 160HP and 178TQ) then I want to throw around a 240. But thanks for the help and Ill be active around the forums asking tidbits and what not. Thanks alot

damn that was rough. What do you mean by 98 S14a? Just kidding I know that they come with different what nots and that the S14a had a better suspension and tid bits. When I was typing I meant to hit 96 because I like the way the lights are on the 97 and up but the early ones were ugly. No offense to anybody out there. And they are cheaper.

Definitely post pics when you're done, or...
better yet, post to tell us when you start, or...
more realistically, post to let us know when you find out that in fact, you would be spending damn well near 15k for such a full s15 makeover and that you're canning the whole project. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sigh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':rolleyes:'>

If thats the story, than it doesn't matter what S14 you get because most likely the back or front end is torn up. &nbsp;If this car is for the shop...is it more show or go? &nbsp;If its more go, just get the S14 SR....don't "pimp it out" and keep your ride clean. &nbsp;Stick to the OEM look, but just remember your spending alot of $$$. &nbsp;There is no difference between the Zenki and Kouki when it comes to the suspension, with the expection of the differences between base and SE/LE.

A project car is nice, but it would be even nicer if you knew alot more about this car.

s13 front end

But on a more serious note: If you haven't noticed, zilvians don't generally appreciate (or don't like to hear) one's plans with a car that they don't even own yet. It's just mindless dreaming.
Heck, before I got my 240, I was imagining it with Toda Fightex coilovers, a set of 15x8 +5 Volk Racing TE-37s and a spare set of SSR Reverse Mesh 15x8 +/-0 in the garage, an SR20DET w/ T28 BB turbo, ARC SMIC, Nismo 555cc/min injectors, Tomei SS, the oneline taillight conversion w/ mini-spoiler thing (that everyone's after) blah dee blah blah blah... you know?
Don't expect the warmest welcome when you boast about a car you don't even own yet is what I'm trying to say.

On that note, if you do get your car and do get all this done to it, you'll earn a lot of peoples' respect; what goes around comes around! They'll all be jealous when you have it. (If you have it...)

hell yeah I know its going to be expensive Im talking down in the long run, because I'm going to go performance first. This summer I made about 18K at 20 bucks an hour polishing marble for the people who installed it in my house. I'm hoping that will go to the car because of college and what not. But the front end would be like 2-3K and the back would be ?. But Ill slowly build up my S14 ill build up the suspension, then prepare for the engine transplant ($$$<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> then probably braking maybe 300ZX calibers and rotors along with steel lines. And other upgrades but I know that the conv. would be last and no way will i have more show than go. So yeah if I have the xtra cash once I get the car which is hopefully in the spring(I have to drive my ill Volvo 740 GLE SW) then it will be a slow and tedious buildup. Other note when I say salvage I dont mean a busted up POS with front and back. Im talking about cars that have a salavage history but has been built back and the title is just showing salvage. Or I could get one with everything stripped and just replace it.

This summer I made about 18K at 20 bucks an hour polishing marble for the people who installed it in my house. I'm hoping that will go to the car because of college and what not. But the front end would be like 2-3K and the back would be ?. But Ill slowly build up my S14 ill build up the suspension, then prepare for the engine transplant ($$$<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> then probably braking maybe 300ZX calibers and rotors along with steel lines.

you earned 18 THOUSAND dollars, in the summer, huh? at 20/hour that's 900 hours. at most there's three months in the summer. 90 days. that's 10 hours EVERY day... i guess they paid you under the table, too...

and, since i believe THAT, have fun with your s15, man. i hope it pimps out the way you want.
