If you get the front to match your golden but the problem is you have a kouki and the 270R was a zenki.

If i were you I would just go JDM bumpers with an aero lip or vertex and keep it kouki.
If you have to go 270r its going to be kind of a challenge to find a kouki front that matches.

But overall the 270R is nice for zenkis.

At first i didnt like these sides, but since i got a pair super cheap, i threw them on and i love how they look. They match up with the kouki s14 front and even better if you have the stock usdm lip (i dont, unfortuantly i was dumb and sold mine). I have them on in my sig.

Interesting. The seller said that the Zenki and Kouki is only the head different, with the Tail light being the same shape, just different design. Is this true? Therefore it would be easy to mix and match. He (the seller) also claimed that the aftermarket front flows with the side and rear no problem at all, just a game of mix and match. Is this true? I would like a second opinion on this.

Regardless, i'm getting the rear/sides for 300 in exchange for my rear. The seller said on Vertex, I'd be looking at $1800 at least with just the kit and no paint.

Thank you for your help, guys! Keep em' coming!

The headlights are different which means the fenders, hood, bumper and probably supports as well.

But kouki monstr sounds like hes got experience mixing and matching.

Kouki_monstr · 09-18-2010, 04:34 PM

The diffrence with zenki and kouki is just the front end, and taillight design (same taillight shape tho) 300 is a great price especially for real nismo sides and rear. Just slam your car with the sides and rear, and hopefully you still have your front lip, and itll look great. good luck

They made a bodykit for the Kouki as well and the Zenki 270R and Kouki are the same minus the front.

He also told me that it's not a Real OEM 270R body kit, its actually a replica, but already painted and fitted. I hope this works out as i'm going to part with my stock rear bumper. I'll update you guys tonight.

Otherwise, thanks Wbarrett, KoukiMonster, and WakeBHR for the advice! I'm starting to grow on the rear but the sideskirts i'm still not feelin. might want to take WakeBHR's advice and looking out for the Aero/Vertex side lips.

ahh... I was about to say
real 270R body pieces are nearly impossible to find
looks good but personally I preferr the OEM quality and fitment

now the 270R chassis bracing parts would be nice to find

LOL here comes a Easter egg hunt.

Yeah didnt even occur to me that it wasnt real 270R pieces. In the case of them being replicas I rescind my vote and say go a different route.

But I dont support knock offs of any sort. Period.

I also had no idea there were kouki 270R's and Im very happy that I learned something new about s-chassis today
