how can a car manufacturer own part become rice when transferred to an earlier model? &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

if that's the case, anyone with an SR swap or 180SX tail lights falls into this cat.

please don't ask what's rice and what's not. just use common sense and don't try and make your 240sx look like an acura integra or some shit. rice is such a horrible topic.

You would need fenders, bumper, and hood.

There are kits that offer that for the S-14, ranging from $2500-$3100.

Here is a site (out of the many) that offer this kit:

Quite honestly, it doesn't matter what's rice and what's not. &nbsp;If you want to do something to your car...then do it and don't worry about what other people think.

That being said, you basically do need to do the entire S15 front end conversion in order to get the head lights on...everything's different; hood, fenders, bumper, headlight mounts, and of course the headlights themselves.

Actually thats a bad point because I never asked if I should get it or not. I just asked people on this board if they would think it to be Rice or not. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sly.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':sly:'>

Rice is an overused term that only became popular with the release of "fast and the furious".

Rice is usually considered a performance modification that either looks stupid, or is totally unfunctional.... like a 3 foot aluminum wing, or NOS stickers (without nitrous of course).

Any mods can be done tastefully, but the ones that aren't are ricey.

Got it?

and so we assume since you seek our opinion, you'll use it in some way to make a choice on if it's a good or bad thing to get it. &nbsp; otherwise, you really wouldn't care what we think, and you wouldn't have asked.
