i don't think it would be easy to pull off a s14 to s13 180sx tail light conversion, if thats what you're asking. i'm sure it could be done but it wouldn't look good. besides, the rps13 180sx tails belong on a 180sx in my opinion.

you'd basically be trying to fit these:

onto this:

when they actually belong on this:

and should look like this:

you choose if you want to do this. it would be quite an expensive modification if you aren't doing all the work yourself. and if you are doing the work yourself, good luck.

i wouldn't advise trying this but its your car and your money

add: now that i look at the pictures, the shape of the 180 tails alone won't work with the s14 rear end. you'd have to do something absolutely insane to fit them on.

S13 kouki tails are super sexy, but S14 kouki tails so soooooo sexy to! Keep with the S14 theme.

Why go through all that trouble. Spend the money on something else like big brakes

S13Driftfiend · #6 09-28-2006, 09:15 PM

I was gonna say that but i knew if i didnt, someone else eventually would anyways. well done AWD lol

hey guys thanx for the great advice, and yes lol i might still be stuck on the honda virus. thing is i spent so much money fixing up the engine and not so much on the body that after awhile driving to work and back home i was getting discouraged. so i was gonna go the other way around wit the 240. body first then engine. but hey there 2 completely different cars. now i am getting a 95 240 for 3k only 112k miles but i wanna make sure i dont end up like i did with freaking honda, which is now totaled, can i get any advice on wut 240 i should get or wut car is easier to tune up i wanna do all the work myself. thanx again for the help. and i just realized the 240 stock end looks way better then w/e the hell i wanted to do.

Here we go again, every friggin week. Are you just building your car for show?

RobbieRob · #15 09-30-2006, 12:43 PM

no i'm trying to build somthing i can take to the track. the reason why i'm trying to work on body first was b/c i had a 97 honda civic that i spent 4k on engine (maybe more) that only gave my problems left and right. plus i was seeing such a small difference in power i was getting pissed. i just moved to fl a year ago so i have no help wut so ever to fix my car so its only the books and internet. dont kno any shops or anyone to help me out. so again just trying to fix body first b/c i'm hopeing if i see a nice looking car atleast i wont feel like everything is going to waste....
