Sorry to burst your bubble again man, but an S15 hood will only fit on an S15 front end.  The lights and fenders won't line up other wise.  And remember that you can't mix and match front end parts from a 95-96 and a 97-98 240sx.  Their designs are different.  Both will involve cutting and welding in order to fit onto a 89 240sx so they will both probably be equally difficult to do, unless you can find a special kit that makes the conversion a bolt on affair but I doubt that.  
The easiest scenario would be to just do a regular Sil80 conversion because the 180sx and S13 share the same chasis in the US and unless I'm mistaken (and I could be) it would be a bolt on affair maybe w/ a few exceptions.
