LMFAO...only an australian would swap an rb25det into an s13 240 and then slap on some civic headlights....

they are even the JDM tyte projector style lol

see the list of mods and more pics here (http://www.garaget.org/?car=29287)

Dosen't look quite as crappy as i would've thought.

supra at first glance? :confused:

supra at first glance? :confused:

what generation?? i dont see it...

Yeah, it does look kinda' like an MKIV at first glance.

^
I see it too.
Also looks sorta Evo-ish when you stare at the front.

Doesn't look too bad but then you realize what kinda headlights they are. lol
Slap on the super made headlights FTW

Noooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what an idiot, the lights make it look like a pile of doo doo

looks good to me

doesnt look that bad, supra at first glance. I woudl still be ashamed to tell anyone what headlights they are though.

^
I can imagine lol

"What kind of headlights are those?"

".uh.......it's pushing 400+hp.."

:lol:

yea the overall body shape also helps with the supra look. I remember when i got stuck in the snow once and my car was covered in it also, some guy was like is that a supra. I was like no, its better bwhahhhahahah jk.

btw thats when i was rocking the hatch still.

yeah I thought Supra too but you can't do that to a 240...... He doesn't appreciate what he has.

what has the world come to?

It looks EXTREMELY unnatural IMO.

yea it doesnt flow well. Im used to big pop ups, or just a straight out conversion.

disgusting. just disgusting. :gay: :puke:

not a huge fan.. like already mentioned, it doesn't look natural. the curves on the front around the lights don't match the types of curves on the rear end. it DOES have a supra-esque look to it too, i have to agree..
imo, overall its ok.. not something i would do but i'll give the guy points for being creative. i can see how some people would think "civic lights? GAY" just because the lights are off a civic. i somewhat agree but you can't even tell that they're from a civic unless you either look really hard or if you know already.
5.5/10

When it comes down to it, I can't really think of a single conversion that looks good combining parts from different makers.

Its not too bad, but I like it a little less than I would have with the stock lights... But he must have just wanted to have something different from everyone else... oh well... if i was going for way off the wall Id have used Bmw projectors.:grinyes:

I just don't understand....

2jz in a 240sx :devilsign:

I kinda like Mitsu FTO headlights on an mr2 though I would never do it to an MR2 I own since I grew up in the 80s and loved all the cars with popups.

I know there are a few other conversions I don't mind, but normally I do like to keep the car pretty much all stock...even bodykits and stuff are too much for me most of the time.

I do have a question...do they have civics in australia???

if not I guess the guy probably didnt get much shit from his friends since they have no idea where the headlights are from...

True, I meant switching body parts. There's tons of nasty engine swap that could be done. That FTO/MR2 struck me as kinda funky at first, but its actually not too bad.

yeah I figured you meant exterior conversions, but I had to mention supra engine in a 240 lol

I'm not sure why, but it fits sort of. The front reminds me of cars that used to have pop-ups and then the updated them to not have them like a mitsubishi 3000gt or the acura nsx.

Still doesn't look as good as stock, but it's a lot better than most of the front end conversions that use different manufacturers or even different models within the same manufacturer like skyline stuff on a 240 which usually doesnt look too good imo.

i dont think it looks too bad but couldnt never kick my 240 in the ballz like that.

Haha

the thing people do to stand out .... sad.....

I'll say this, it's not horrible but I definitely wouldn't have done it. Imo it makes it look more JDM Integra-ish if you look at only the front view. I'll give an "E" for effort and creativity. He should have taken that money that he used for all that custom body work and dumped it in my bank account so I can get my RB swap..lol.

I dont think it looks too bad, just not something I would do.
It doesnt look anything like a MKIV Supra or any other Supra for that matter maybe you guys need to get your eyes checked lol. :)

You have to look at it from the right angle and then it looks like an MKIV with an open gap between the headlights.
