I know that a picture of a car like this has been posted here before but I have never seen anything like it beside that one picture. I think it looks pretty good, different at least. Just thought I would get everyone elses opinions on it.

hehehe, you win

By the way, the engine compartment has a ton of room left, pretty much anything would fit in there with pretty of room left. Makes me think of the 240z with the turbo charged LS1 that was posted on here a week or so ago. Now that think is bad ass.

Zemus · 10-22-2003, 09:10 AM

SilviaDriver · 10-22-2003, 02:22 PM

*sykikchimp* · 10-22-2003, 02:40 PM

Look at the wheels in the 2nd pic.. no rotors, and the spokes are in the exact same position. If not totally p'chopped, definately edited.

JasonNagra · 10-22-2003, 02:59 PM

Aaron YOU could do that to rear fenders. Just maybe need a little hotter heat gun and such, but i TOTALLY think you can do it. Look at how far mine are.

Dousan_PG · 10-22-2003, 03:00 PM

im porbaly going to pick up a small propane torch type this weekend when i get paid and if i can sell some stuff. muhahahahahahaha..

*sykikchimp* · 10-22-2003, 03:00 PM

yeah.. thats the exact picture I saw before. You have some library of pics man.. I would have NEVER been able to find that. LOL

all kinds of little things different.. hood, fenders, grill, bumper skirt openings, etc.. subtle differences

You think we could do mine some more and even em up a little?

Dousan_PG · 10-22-2003, 03:02 PM

yeah they definately tweaked it for the ebay action. of course you woulnd put a track car on a auction to sell a front end beacuse it all gets goofy from the track haha..

you got some "eagle eyes" in your head there, sykikchimp!!!

lumbo007 · 10-22-2003, 03:42 PM

That's actually a kit, not just a conversion... There was an article about the kit in a recent Option mag... The convesion costs like $3,000. Don't know the brand off hand though.

Looks so tiny in there.

SilviaDriver · 10-22-2003, 06:59 PM

wonder how it would look on a coupe

DRFT · 10-22-2003, 07:04 PM

dont think it will look too great, because it doesn have the salnted rear end like the rps13 and Z80

hadokenny · 10-22-2003, 07:19 PM

i saw that front conversion in hyper rev mag. I fell in love with it right after i saw it. IF i have an s13, i will definately get that conversion....I dunno the name of the brand that makes that kit cuz its in japanese...but heres the phone number if anyones interested...its in japan btw. 0584-32-0824

misnomer · 10-22-2003, 09:20 PM

Y'know, that conversion does look pretty slick.

I still, however, definitely prefer that front end on the Z over the 180/240sx. Perhaps it's the generally thinner profile or longer hood of the Z, but it just looks out of place there. . .

Still, definitely gets attention :P
