I love the conversion buddy! I wanna do this kind of conversion, but on a LHD, with the center console modified for the LHD (ie. ebrake on the left hand side).

How much did it all cost ya in the end??

It was up there and I had to have some centerconsole parts shipped from hong kong, so all in all it was about 700 lol not cheap … But it is pretty sharp looking, it’s probably cheaper for you to find a lhd composite already made, or if you can find one for pretty cheap cause of rough condition, but yea check out your options and be prepared to spend some cash haha

Not really no, it’s different sizes you’d have to cut the s13 dash to make it fit vertically and then you’d have big gaps on either side, allso the wiring on the cluster is different swell and would require allot if effort, mines not wired up I will probably just make a custom plate and duplicate the look/style of the cluster with custom guages long term I might offer the s15 cluster up for sale. My opinion just modify the s13 cluster change the gauge faces add some lights And shit lol.

used brake clean to clean the filth off them  
then basically just sanded down the rusty areas to the bare metal and scuffed up the rest of the paint with some scotch pads and sand paper  
then just sprayed em with some rust paint and good as new lol
