It does look quite cleaner...and I can actually see now from the pic posted, that the door and dash defiently dont line up.

Lovin the topic. I was actually thinkin of doin an S14 center console conversion into my s13 but after seeing pics of the whole dash conversion, it's making me want to do that.

Does an S14 center console fit the S13 without much work, or is there a lot of cutting/molding? Are we talking the console between the seats?

no functionality? its a fucking dash.

stock s13 dash has no functionality either, better take it out and sell it or else youll be wasting money, if you run anything more than a dash bar and a steering column your a poser

Ninjabread · 08-21-2006, 07:35 AM

lmao, I ment that the functionality is no different, a dash is a dash, so therefore, im MY OPINION it would be a waste of money. Unless there was a good reason, like say your dash was cracked and you got a s14 one for mads cheap...

-Matt

*EDIT* lol maybe I shouldn't be arguing with the ViceRoy Mafia haha!

You're in Canada, I think you'll be safe.

mr_240sx · 08-21-2006, 10:19 AM

so Matt have you found a car yet????

no good cars in ontario eh? shit im looking for a track/dd car and looks like ill have to buy from socal or down south somwhere.....

btw sncs14 our canadian customs arent that strict so viceroy might be able to get to him!! eheheheh

I was supposed to go look at a '90 today, but the guy had a new clutch installed and needed to have the pedal reajusted. And the guy in Barrie (TO) is being a douche and not taking me some pics his car. His is a 91 and he's a professional welder so he's replacing the front rails. The 90 has no rot from what im told, but we'll see. I might just keep saving and buy a silvia or a 180sx (have it imported) or buy a socal car like you matts... trying to find a 240sx in ottawa is a major PITA, but it will be worth it in the end.

mr_240sx · 08-21-2006, 11:33 AM

yeah dont think there are many left in eastern ontario with no rust.... im looking for an s13 chassis..... with good frame.... dont care if its got a motor or not or if there are scratches or dents, cause whichever car i get first thing its getting is body work and sr20 installed. so i need a good frame. anyways gl with your search

Ninjabread · 08-21-2006, 11:35 AM

Yea, well right now im just looking for a running car with a clean frame... I got 3k in hand. Maybe ill post a WTB add lol.

smelly240 · 12-05-2006, 08:02 PM
