S15 front end or stay Kouki - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

RPS13-604 · 07-11-2008, 11:49 PM

hey guys,

so right now i am having a tough time choosing to go S15 front or stay kouki the car is going to be widebodied end of the summer so im trying to choose the front end. If i was going to do the S15 front i was gonna use the stock S15 silvia Spec R bumper and cutting the license plate peice for more of the aggressive look and if i was kouki Version Select replica of the kouki. i love the look of the S15 and the kouki but in certain veiws with the s15 on a 240sx hatchback looks kinda funky. So help me out guys S15 or stay Kouki?

PS: my cars a 91 hatchback

Thank you
Jimmy

i think that s15 look is sleeker, and has a sexier look to it.
the kouki is more aggresive, and tough-looking

but just my opinions.
sell me your kouki front end if you do.

drift freaq · 07-11-2008, 11:52 PM

Stay Kouki, but seriously why ask us? You're the one that has to live with your decision not us. This should be something you decide on.

an_orange_s2k · 07-11-2008, 11:53 PM

stay kouki...but if u decide to go s15 sell me ur kouki front haha

dmragecm · 07-11-2008, 11:55 PM

s13.4 looks tits if its done right. s15 front ends look good....on s15s lol. but seriously its your choice. thats like asking someone what album you should buy.

Bubbles · 07-11-2008, 11:55 PM

There is only one thing that should have an S15 front on it.

s13boy89 · 07-11-2008, 11:57 PM

Z33dori · 07-12-2008, 12:03 AM

i mean they dont look horrible.. hell they look decent and good 90% but im so sick of seeing it

EJ253 · 07-12-2008, 12:14 AM

that being said, i thought that was chuki, not kouki. shows how much i know!

HI-OOOH!

bejota180sx · 07-12-2008, 12:20 AM

Z33dori · 07-12-2008, 12:21 AM

Keep the kouki 180sx front ...

derek_s13 · 07-12-2008, 12:27 AM

celica3sgte94 · 07-12-2008, 12:52 AM

RPS13-604 · 07-12-2008, 12:54 AM

thats its im staying kouki i just found a pic of doriftogasms widebody 180sx shit looks amazing!

Somnambulist · 07-12-2008, 01:47 AM

S15 fronts belong on S15s.

That's my opinion.

In other news, Kouki fronts are badass. Keep it Kouki.

Addicted2Kouki · 07-12-2008, 02:14 AM

There is only 1 S13.5 I liked.... HerbReal's.

Thats gonna be the ONLY one im gonna like.

If it didnt come on the car, why would you put it on it?

kouki
stay with that shit

EDacIouSX · 07-12-2008, 04:10 AM

Do you think this looks nice? look at the fender and the door. lines are all FUBARED.

to make a real life comparison, S14.5 looks like a girl that had a doctor make one boob a size B and the other boob a size C.

its just wtf

even from far away, you can tell that the fender doen't line up right with the rest of the car.

qwikspool · 07-12-2008, 04:14 AM

stay kouki
use that money for something else.

The Inflicted · 07-12-2008, 07:40 AM

Personally I love the S14.5 conversion- I just finished one myself. If done properly the lines flow very smoothly, and I think the generally rounded shape of the car, especially in the rear, compliments the headlights.

That being said, I converted from an already wrecked Zenki front, whereas you have a perfectly good Kouki front on yours. I don't think you have any reason to switch. You already have projectors, and just as many people, if not more these days, are paying the money to upgrade their Zenkis to the Kouki front instead of the S15 conversion.

Unlike a Zenki car, your vehicle is in no danger of being confused with an corolla. Keep it the way it is.

DOOK · 07-12-2008, 08:02 AM

hatchbacks should remain popups. S15s are the only car that should have S15 fascia. Some have pulled off good conversions, but they are few and far between.

lies..

To the OP, keep them pop-ups

!Zar! · 07-12-2008, 12:47 PM

What else does your car have?

Because I'm pretty sure you could spend your money on something better.

Not to mention, kouki 180sx looks nice.

canuckster240 · 07-12-2008, 12:48 PM

s14.3 ftw hehe just kidding

i like to think mine lines up pretty well? and yes i know i need sideskirts, looking for some stock kouki's......

*edit* on topic with the original poster......keep the popups, i'm a fan of popups and if i still had an s13 i'd be rocking them for sure

jbuckley · 07-12-2008, 12:55 PM

POP ups please.

spend the money else where go buy a 2 way lsd or something.
