like he said everything should bolt right up...though you do need brackets for the headlights. search around there's quite a few threads regarding s13 conversion installs.
btw, i'm still waiting for info regarding my exhaust shipment... |

All the answers are on this site a billion times over, people are saying u should SEARCH so we won't waste more bandwidth and topic space on a subject that's been covered dozens of times over the past several years.... It's all bolt-on, Period. Now go use your logistical advantage to get it for WAY cheaper than the rest of us could ever hope to  |

yoshi you dont get the point bro.... i wouldnt have made a new topic if my searching would have gotten me any useful info... all that i can find no matter what is about s13 fronts and s15.. the few post that i find are not useful at all its just everyone talking about how they love or hate a s14 front on a 180... im just trying to find a rock solid awnser if it will bolt on or it will require welding, bent, etc
i hear from a few people yes a s14 front will fit with little to no problems then i hear no you need to cut and weld the fenders sorry to come off as such a newbie but dam bro im in the land of silvia heaven with just basic knowlege.... and i have worked on cars before so im not a newbie to that i happen to be a mechanic in the usmc.... on top of that i worked at a car custom shop in miami for 6 years im just trying to get some backround before i tackle this this.... sorry to waste bandwith ............ |

ok lets just end this here. forget what we all say. i guess we all know better now right? ok here we go!
silvia s13 front on RPS13? yes everything should bolt up with no problem. just dont forget the little things like the headlight support and to make sure the hood lines up correctly. and make sure your chassis isnt bent up all the way other wise the stock bolt locations wont really match up. so in other words everything should be a fair and easy bolt on. so... when are you gonna start shipping stuff from Jland for all of us to enjoy? -

yea im sorry you all for not making it clear thats my mistake.... i got a 180sx.. rps13... and i got a s14 (kouki) front..... i started puting on the parts today and yea its gonna be a lot of work... the bumper is fine... the hood will need some custom hinges or what not.... the fenders however like you all said are gonna need some work... let me try to explain this clearly cause its kind of weird.... i am going to cut the fenders in half and jb weld the back s13 part to the front s14 fender.... that way it lines up at the door and the bumper will have its supports for the headlights... reason i am going to jb weld and not really weld it is that if i wreck it i can simply re glue if you will a new front half to my car instead of trying weld a whole new fender... also i plan on geting the car painted in about 4 or 5 weeks so a little bondo on there wont kill me.... ill try to post some pics if i can... thanks for the help...
