I see alot of info on the strawberry sileighty conversions and the usual s13 sileighty but I don't see alot of interest in the S14 sileighty. I think the 180sx with the kouki S14 front end looks the best but does anyone know if they have that kit here in the states?

I totally agree that the kouki s14 front ends look badass on a hatch, but I highly doubt s14 kits are readily available here in the states. You can always try to get someone to import a West Yokohama s14 to s13 conversion kit, but for the price I don't think it's worth it.

Come on Junia you the dimensions of the 14 are mm off and you can manipulate it to fit like a glove. I know the junkyards there are not like they are here but hit them up and create a kit. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

iirc, there was a kit for it, it was talked about a while back. i was actually looking into a cusomized conversion myself, but the headlights r like 400 bucks a peice... outch, backed out on that idea. and wouldn't that be kinda b like swaping a s14mc front end on the integra? i don't know... i've seen pics of it, pretty coo

ju-yon hachi-ju conversion fenders are only available from Masa and Strawberry Face. No one to the very best of my knowledge makes them here.

Better I found a 14Q's Kouki in a Junkyard he will sell the fenders san zen Y each the head lights I can get for go sen Y each I wanted to change mine from Zenki to Kouki. Tomo's went out of business??? There was a drifting accident up here on of the girl's was standing on the other side of the cement barrier and a hachi roku lost control and the 180 behind him swerved to miss him and slammed into her (she Lived but can't walk anymore)(T_T) Guess who was sponsering the drift contest (Tomo's)
*gasp!* what happened to my post!?
Anyway as I said back then, there's a thread going on in freshalloy where it describes the S14 front as being too wide. It would leave your poor 13 looking awfully teardrop shaped from a birds eye view... and just silly (sperm-like) looking from the side. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
Or you could do that and get a wide body kit - let the front fenders "vent" hot air from the engine bay through large openings (RX7 style) right where the fender meets the door.

I've seen a bunch of them and if done right a S14 kouki sileighty, i think looks a hell of lot better than the S15 conversion.

i agree.
however, the Masa and Strawberry Face conversions are all FRP tho rite?
no one makes metal panels and hoods for the conversion?
