aguadilla · 01-20-2008, 01:13 PM

All I have to say is wow! Great buildup and the car looks really good. Congrats to you sir

slavetothemuzic · 01-20-2008, 01:20 PM

I'm not at all a fan of the non Nissan engine swaps, but I have to say that you've done a great job with everything.

The whole car looks clean and flows really well. I really like that.

s13pignose · 01-20-2008, 01:32 PM

Definitely a clean swap

dirtdiggler666 · 01-20-2008, 01:39 PM

sell the s15 stuff and use the money in a better place but its your car

jyon9689 · 01-20-2008, 01:47 PM

If you're set on the S15 conv. just do it. However I think a 2JZ'd widebody Zenki would be waaaaay sexier. I gotta love how well you documented this...damn!

Agreed. S15 front end will kill that car. Keep it Zenki.

Acidz · 01-20-2008, 02:16 PM

whats with the s15 front end hate??? i hate the zenki front end

the kouki isnt to bad but s15 is baller

LOL

im also gettin my roof done in carbon car is gonna be two tone gold bottom and black on pillars and carbon hood, trunk and roof...just need to find a sick carbon wing

**ThatGuy** · 01-20-2008, 02:19 PM

S15 front end has been done to death. I mean come on, they have the conversion for Acuras and Hondas. Zenki can look EXTREMELY clean when done right. Plus I think you should keep the car clean and subtle looking. S15 just screams "Look at me! I need attention!!".

Ultimately it's your choice.

Agreed X3

Use the $$ for nice Zenki or Kouki aero goodness.

Acidz · 01-20-2008, 02:23 PM

FACK!!! grrr i was also thinkin about the Kouki front end but was like ah fuck it go s15!

DOOK · 01-20-2008, 02:31 PM

hate the zenki front end... what? The S15 front looks good on, guess what, an S15. It's like putting a ferrari front end on a fearo... no no no.

DUFFM4N's car is pimpolicious... now it sports VS-XX

Acidz · 01-20-2008, 02:42 PM

k im not gonna like that car looks awesome is that the german glass headlights?

Acidz · 01-20-2008, 02:47 PM

bah fack it im just gonna stay with the s15 front i know a lot of u guys may not like it, but the way i see it is that up here in Canada we really dont have a lot of front end swaps to the s15 like down in the states

and really its how i want my car to look in the end so....i do appreciate all your advice

Kouki s14 front > s15 front for sho

allntrlundrgrnd · 01-20-2008, 03:31 PM

i agree with everyone to stay zenki and pickup some european glass headlights and some subtle aero would be super clean, awesome work though.

2fast240 · 01-20-2008, 03:33 PM

Fuck all the haters man, excellent build, very detailed writeup. Plus, you are the one who put in all the work and time and money so go ahead with the s15 front. Build the car so that you love it, fuck what other people say its yours, not theirs.

OBEEWON · 01-20-2008, 05:20 PM

Go S15, I dont want everyone jumping on the Zenki bandwaggon. Silvia fronts on 13's are played too but people still do it.

Its your car do what you want, S15 fronts can look good, just depends. Great progress BTW.

Here I thought I was going to be the only one.

It's not just the S15 conversion that bothers me, I actually prefer the look of the S14 front.

Gavster · 01-20-2008, 06:17 PM

Its your car man, do whatever front end you want to do! Be prepared for the heat obviously haha but do what makes you happiest, being a car enthusiast is about making yourself happy, not a forum full of dudes!

That being said, I love the car overall! Nice swap, clean work and pretty unique! Props to you!

RUTH'LESSDET · 01-20-2008, 06:56 PM

I like this thread shit gets str8 to the point and i didnt have to wait months to see the end result....I like the fact you did the swap first and then posted the build thread. Nice work. The S15 front is cool but that bumper that it had was WEAK SAUCE!!! Now a kouki front end is the way to go because you really cant go wrong with it.

sirhc · 01-20-2008, 07:23 PM

Nice car, you should do a kouki front.

tysoNgoduMb · 01-20-2008, 09:10 PM

damn BALLiN!!!! lookin good.

dirtdiggler666 · 01-20-2008, 09:34 PM

the people saying stay zenki or kouki are just trying to help you out not hateing at all you will thank us later. but with that said the s14 came with zenki and kouki fronts not s15. to me its kind of like putting a integra front on a civic. but like i said its your car have fun with it and it looks rad.

but rember sometimes less is more
