hi,

does anyone have any information on this conversion? i’ve been throwing ideas around on what to do with my '89 240sx hatchback

mainly i want to know if the OEM s14 front end can fit. i know a custom headlight bracket will be required, and probably hood hinges too.

thanks!

well i’m pretty sure that the 14 hinges line up in the back with the s13 holes, but as for fenders the s14 are shorter in lengh and taller in height. you’d need to fab your own, but it might work

they will fit somewhat! Headlight brackets are easy to make. You just move over the Silvia ones a inch or so and the rest of the lights blot to the fender! The fenders are wider and I am 90% sure the hood can just bolt to the factory S13 hinges! Also you would have to space out the hood clamp about 3/4 of an inch!

nice, so essentially custom fenders are the only thing required?

yup, but i don’t really wanna go +30 with the fenders since i just spent money on rims that fit nicely on stock bodywork

the one pic that inspired me was this one
