s13-to-s15 mods

[BlackBlur]

First of all, what the hell is a Sileighty, im new and i just want to know if thats what im trying to do? kindof?
Anyway , I was wondering what kind of mods...frame and body-wise, that I would have to do to accomplish the conversion from a s13 to s15 front end.
For instance, I have a 90-93 240 and a s15 silvia front clip , lights, bumper, engine, everything. What kind of mods am i looking at to be able to piece these two beauties together?
If you know of any websites that have good material, please share.
Thanks.

Ok now what kind of front end is this?

And thanks to whoevers car this is for hopefully not killing me for posting it, by the way, sick ride.

think that would be called a 1480?or a sil-80. its a Silvia S14 Kouki front on a 180sx

like i said dude, DO YOUR RESEARCH!

no offence, but when you can't even tell what front end that is, it's obvious that you haven't researched much yet. i'm not saying that to attack you or degrade you, i'm just saying that to point out the fact that you NEED to do more research before you try to take on a project like this.

for a 15 to 13 conversion, you'll need custom fenders (the line where the door meets the fender is not the same on an S13 as it is on an S15, so your S15 fenders will not fit your S13), custom hood (ditto above, hoods are different where they meet the windshield), light brackets, bumper, bumper support, headlights, and i think you need new hood hinges too, but don't quote me on that.

and don't even THINK that you'll just be able to weld your S15 front clip onto your S13 car, engine and all...that just will not work, and as much as i know you don't want to do all the work to get the engine over, you'll have to.

and again i will say READ THE FAQ AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE!!

the answer to your "what is a Sileighty" question and many more is covered in there.

I didnt say I was gonna go do it tommorrow or anything. I was just asking that specific one Kouki or whatever. Thanks for the other info, and im not stupid enough to think that all I have to do is weld it on. I have a little more sense than that. And second of all, i dont even have the 240 yet, im still trying to figure out what to get. And im doing research on here by asking questions, with the pic, because the headlights arent the same of other s14's and whatnot. Forgive me, im still learning.

hey hey...take it easy. no need to get huffy. i'm just trying to help. who called you stupid? not me. i'm just saying that research is a good thing to have, and you're going about it well so far. and there ARE some people who are stupid enough to come in here and ask if they can just cut the front off their S14, engine and all, and weld an S15 clip into place, so i was just taking precautions in case you were one of those people.

no worries.
