s14 kouki front end conversion - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Ive been thinking of doing an s14 kouki front end conversion for awhile. Anyone know how much it would cost to get a shop to just remove the old lights and put in the new ones? excluding price of fenders, hood, bumper, lights

I found this: http://www.mynismo.com/products/?id=4089

Anyone know what a Bumper reinforcement bar looks like? Is it like the one on the s13?
Whats the bumper retainer bracket look like too?

EDIT* I forgot to mention my car is an '89 s13

thanks

do it yourself?

goto the hardware store and make some custom brackets for the lights

sigh

and that conversion doesn't look good unless you have full aero on the car

so i think you need to rethink your STRATEGY

dude all you have to do is remove 2 bolts on the side of the head light and 2 by the fender and it comes out. And the kouki headlight bolts right in.

I think he's talking about S14 Kouki on to an S13 Chassis.

2plus4plus0eq6, if you really want to know what a shop will charge you, ASK THEM. Body shops rates differ from area to area.

ya an s14 kouki front end on an s13. I know raceonusa has an s14 OEM core support or I could get it from the dealership I guess. I just started to do some research so I do have some more to do obviously. I just wanted to get a response from those who have done this.

s0apgun: of course I would do a full areo kit. I have have a kit for my s13 so I would just need to get a new bumper
