hiko01 · 10-16-2005, 09:42 PM

Does anyone have any information on doing this?
Pictures would be nice

Thx in advance

HyperTek · 10-16-2005, 09:51 PM

best bet would be to check out 240sxforums.com.. alot of hardcore skyline guys on there with teh conversion done. =P

**Phlip** · 10-16-2005, 09:55 PM

wow first post - question about conversion. im gonna be blunt and call it a troll

KwKouki · 10-17-2005, 12:27 AM

the last pic doesnt look all that bad........ still funny looking though

zenkiDori · 10-17-2005, 12:31 AM

great way to make your car an even bigger poser than you.

Pank · 10-17-2005, 01:41 AM

ok, that looks like a bent penis.

just sayin'

SochBAT · 10-17-2005, 09:00 AM

i hear R32 parts bolt up like stock on 240s, but i think thats all hearsay. Try it, if it doesn't work out, sell it.

The last picture Phlip posted was a fullon cosmetic conversion of the S13 coupe into the R32, and it looks pretty accurate and original. He had a shop handle it tho.

blackflag_Rms13 · 10-17-2005, 09:29 AM

It can look alright, but it's not my cup of tea. I wouldnt even considder it without an RB. Here's some pics of clean conversions:

This is the best r32 conversion I have ever seen. Too bad its a stock motor, and even worse, a fake intercooler

mistaanime · 10-17-2005, 09:55 AM

i dunno about R32 front ends on Fastbacks....but looks pretty tite on coupes.

OptionZero · 10-17-2005, 10:29 AM

i like the fastback but it seems like the bumper hangs a little too low and the front is wider than the back. Needs rear overfenders.

They actually used a real Skyline bumper and it was to wide.

240SeXy! · 10-17-2005, 03:13 PM

IM pretty sure you will find lots of parts in that department, The "in" thing in japan now adays is to convert your r32, to a r34 front end, looks sweet. Maybe more hoods, fenders will be up for sale, Nothing like oem metal... yummie

(threadjack removed, there is a thread open for that already - PHLIP)

irritatedmax · 10-17-2005, 07:48 PM

from what i have gathered on the conversion is that the r32 fenders do not fit quite as tight/nicely with the 240sx door and the r32 is a little wider over all. there is a seller on ebay who did it on his shop 240sx, the name is jarcocorp, and the dude is pretty cool. he usually has a front end conversion for sale on ebay sometimes rear, just search it. here are a couple of pictures of a s13 with the coversion front and rear that was for sale on ebay a while back.

240SeXy! · 10-17-2005, 09:03 PM

ITs ok dont snip it, THATS my Thread, OPENs Eyes....

irritatedmax · 10-20-2005, 10:26 AM

here are some more pics.

***FaLKoN240*** · 10-20-2005, 10:44 AM

Unless you have a good body shop, don't bother, the non flush fenders look stupid.

KrazyZenki · 10-20-2005, 02:12 PM

Theres a guy in Savannah, Ga that did this to his S14 and it looked really clean. He did headlights and taillights. It was his first time doing any bodywork. It took him 3 months to get it just perfect but it looks really good. I think it looks a lot better than most R33 conversions. I have pics Ill see if I can find them.

turbo_lover · 10-20-2005, 02:46 PM

omg, i never heard of a skyl-80

lol that is HOT. never have seen a r32 front on a fastback/coupe.

heck yeah to r32 front-end conversions!

rainier · 10-20-2005, 07:12 PM

i remember seeing an s14 with the r32 front and rear conversion and a huge intercooler to match it. it looks pretty cool except you could see the bonded things around the lights and stuff

decksy · 10-21-2005, 12:36 AM

id rock a r32 front on my coupe if i find one

240SeXy! · 10-21-2005, 02:56 AM
