Thank for the remark. But you're right, I'm looking for a S14 with Origin conversion fenders.

Just a quick stupid question, but do you get the same measurements for the origin lab conversion fenders with the oem s15 fenders? Which ones are wider or are they the same?

I thought the car looked amazing like this.




you should of used a low condition s14 rather than hacking up a near perfect one.

to each their own i suppose.

My front was damaged because of a collision so I put a kouki front on. Then 6 months later I was hit again, so I had to look for a new front again. Therefore I decided to get a S15 front and a total makeover. So the Zenki front was already gone. Nevertheless I never liked the zenki front, I always was a fan of the kouki. But I liked the S15 the most, but too bad it was only RHD. So I'm a happy man now!

Not too much. I have my car back since last Thursday night. I don't know if you have the same in the US but overhere our cars need an annual technical check at a qualified garage.

There was also a leak from the waterpump, likely because of standing still too long with the belt pullig the shaft. So a new one was fitted as well. Right now, I'm searching for some wider front fenders. Some guy is selling some custom ones in Ireland, but after 3 weeks I still haven't seen a picture. Makes you wonder if he wants to sell them...

Last thursday on the way home I had a boost leak from a hose that went off from my FMIC. So I stopped my car and my passenger screamed: "Fire!!!". So I hurried to the back and saw flames from my exhaust while running idle. So I did the most sensible thing one can do, I took out my phone and shot a video before turning my car off!

cant believe you guys like that bumper, i've always thought it looked like complete SHIT. who the hell wants big-ass rear fog lights - they look like a complete after thought.

proof that people commonly want the opposite of what they have just so they can be different.

they're available through motorsports, any dealer can get them for you if you have the time. they may be the same as r33, cant recall. i have several pairs but ours have been converted to LED (if you're looking for something that special)

i thought so too, but cars exposed to water & snow always have hidden rust damage as you guys saw above.

bump.
great thread! i want to see the finished product.
Those rear over fenders looks AMAZING and i've been trying to find pictures of them on a car for months. Glad you used them! Looks like an R32 GTR from the side shot. I'll be using these on my RB25 Neo S14.

Thanks all! Just a small update. I sold my front fenders and I'm the search for wider ones... And since it's all white and slippery outside there won't be any progress the coming two months.

Finally a small update. I bought Origin fenders but they seem +20mm. So they're the same width as the Chargespeed ones. Oh well...

I also had S13 lower arms fitted as they are 10mm shorter than the S14 ones. Camber bolts were also fitted to increase camber even more if necessary. And last but not least my Drifworks toe rods were installed.

And my car is at the paint shop right now:

I will eventually, but not right now. I still have to find one I really like, but it's nog top priority right now. I still want the handling to be sorted and perhaps a power upgrade with larger injectors, etc.

I finally received my car yesterday.









Today I started rebuilding my car. I've fitted my front windows, trunklid, rear bumper, front fenders. Unfortunatley I only have a pic of the car in the dark. Didn't think of shooting one while the sun was shining...
