Need clarification

I'm doing the Kouki conversion. Do I need the actual front bumper support, or just the long black retainer that bolts to the top of the bumper support?

Can't I just use my old bumper support, and just get the a KOUKI retainer? Because on the technical 97-98 conversion guide, the price of the "bumper support" is only $84 which is way too cheap for an actual bumper support, I think he must mean the bumper retainer.

Thanks

Anyone know what a kouki and zenki are?

Jesus christ, I have some question and it seems like it's impossible to answer.

If you are doing the kouki conversion on a 95, do you need the full bumper reinforcement assembly or just the kouki retainer that goes on top of your original bumper reinforcement?

On this guide it says that it'sa bumper reinforcement, which means the big bar thingy. But the Nissan Part # he gives leads to a 97-98 upper bracket, which means the thin metal thing. So which is which here?!??!!?! Do I need just tbe bracket or the whole thing? Does the kouki bracket bolt onto my Bumper reinforcement?

You don't need to ask the same question twice.

People with S13's do S14 and S15 conversions all the time.

You should only need the upper bracket. The bumper reinforecement is suposed to be the same.
