The best you could do was to not buy this eyesore, start with a stock 240, and keep it a 240... Not try to convert it into a skyline.

I bought it like this.. haha. only because it was different. and its not an eyesore, its actually good looking. finding a decent, rust free s13 like I wanted isn't easy around here. and this isn't the path I want to go, but for a daily driver, its great. and trust me, it gets a hell of a lot more looks than a stock 240 does.

Nice ninja edit... Good try calling me out for not reading, when in fact you were the one that didnt read. haha.



And yes, this is the definition of eyesore. Janky/ricey body kit. Poorly fit kit, "skyline conversion", shitty paint, stock painted wheels with a huge kit....

its not a body kit, its the actually front end off of a skyline. yes, the side skirts suck, theyre getting changed out for something a little more OEM looking, and I removed the paint off the wheels, and the cars a work in progress, everything is getting sanded down, and smoothed out, so why have a nice paintjob when the cars not done?

and no, im not all into modifying the body and putting body kits on. im an engine guy, so yes it has a little bit of engine work done, and im doing work on the suspension, and everything else on the car. its not going to be a show car, its just for fun.

I've seen much worse. If you really want it you will need to change the front bumper to a GTR bumper and put some wide 18" wheels on it for the proportions to work better. And definitely a paint job. It's like 15 shades of white.

the only reason im not doing a gtr bumper is because im going more for a gts look, just because its rwd. yes wheels are coming up, not to sure what to get yet :/ and the paint is coming as soon as I finish the body work, which will happen in time.

Except that R33's are federally legal for you to import so really, it isn't.

shit, there is an R33 near me for sale on autotrader for less than I could find a decent used WRX for. granted I don't trust cars that have been imported by others so I would never buy it just so the DMV or whoever could seize and destroy my car. was probably not that much more than this thing cost at all.

plus it would be a proper RB in it's proper home, not shoehorned into a 4 cylinder engine bay.

09-11-2013, 04:16 AM
From 33 onward they had actually originally intended to move to an alloy V6 platform(VG etc.) but decided to keep with the straight 6 due to its popularity. So technically it's not the proper home of an RB either :P

Look man, the car looks fine fix and stuff. Also make a build thread, once you've done real stuff. Otherwise theres a picture thread to whore your car out.

Helpful suggestion:
GTR Front bumper
GTR grill
Carbon GTR hood
18x10 fr
19x10.5 rears
Paint it super black
And tint the windows
Done! You'll be happy!

or go get a double barrel take it out for one more run by the grazing lands.. get a nice heavy brick put the car in gear and let her sail away off the hill side.. the shot gun is to keep you safe when you walk home. this car needs to burn all 50 shades of white.

Well it's going to look like a "fake" either way so you may as well pick the bumper that doesn't look utterly terrible if you want it to work.

Don't listen to everyone hating on your car lol. If you like it, then good for you. Do what YOU like. There's always people who will like it, and people who will hate it. :) I won't lie, it does look strange to me though. Peace.

Might as well buy a Mustang and slap a GT-R Emblem on it.

Basically the same thing right?

Needs R33 GT-R Wheels, front bumper, and skirts. Also needs coilovers. Then get rid of the KA.

Or get rid of the KA first.


Rear end is a little weird but the front end actually looks okay on an S14 IMO. I've seen worse.

Let the haters hate. Obviously those who are neglected in the real world feel the need to express themselves. Get off the forums and do something useful trolls.

To the OP, work on aligning the kit... Front doesn't look to bad but the rear seems alittle off.

everyone can hate, but I don't care. its for fun. I bought it because in my mind I was like "wow, ive never seen anything like that". when I asked for feedback id expect to get more like which wheels to get or what could be changed, not people who have nothing better to do than be trolls. its kind of pathetic, you go for what you like, and ill keep doing what im doing. ive actually gotten MUCH better feedback in person than on this website.

Except they actually had Skylines, so they still didn't do this.

But OP, thing is kinda ugly. People would have sucked your dick hard in 1999, but that time has passed. Guess it could look good though if you get a GTR bumper, and at least 17s, and paint....at least the R33 front is "kinda" similar to a zenki front. At least you didn't buy a prelude with a Kouki S14 front and Supra wing.

Oh, and you live about a half an hour from me.

Ever since I saw Tokyo Drift when I was 9 years old, I knew I wanted a Skyline!

Anyways, hope you stay on the forums longer , you will learn alot here. It is your car and as long as you are happy with it, than who cares.

I'd at least convert the rear back to normal. Then GT-R Front Bumper, JDM S14 Ks wing, paint, and slam it on LMGT4s.

Needs RB20 swap, only then will it officially hit bottom and be truly 'unique'.

i think it looks pretty cool. it just needs some work. who cares what anyone thinks, its your car. if ppl cant see past the ugly of a car, they shouldnt be into cars to begin with. its a hobby for an enthusiast, so do what you want as its your money, not theirs.

I have previously only been a visitor to the sight but after seeing this thread I had to sign up. Not sure if I will stick around it hardly seems like friendly community. As the OP said it is a project. I have actually seen the car before he bought it. The conversion was already started and the OP has improved it from there. it looks better in person than the pics he put up. The fitment of the front end is good but the rear does need work. It seems many people dont like the GTSt bumper but is does make it unique. I dont see the point in bashing him for it I have seen a lot worse abomonations out there. Give the guy a break.
