alright so ive been lookin for help on converting the headlights of a s14 to the meaner s14a. and so far ive found that it directly bolts up(the fenders, hood, etc.) my new question is taht i plan on puttin a body kit on it ... different fenders, and a carbon hood. so heres what im thinking. can i just buy some s14a headlights and thier brackets or whatever... buy the body kit i want and the aftermarket fenders and the carbon hood and be done with this. also why the fuck did nissan ever put those pussy headligths on the s14?
oh yea heres the kit im putting on. comes with front and rear bumper and sideskrits. ( http://www.enjukuracing.com/ ) its under body (s14a)
the fenders on this car are fuckin tight i want to get them to0..
so it would work right... buying s14a headlights and thier brackets or mounts. buying the turnsignal lights. then buying the kit i want and the fenders and hood i want.....????
IMO (and quite a few others, might i add), the S14 lights are very nice. try to refrain from calling them "pussy" or whatever other word, besides "dislike", comes to your mind.
think of it this way, the S14 lights are very similar to those of the R32 and R33. so do you think those are pussy lights too?
back on topic, like i've already said, the S14 chassis is the same, just with different headlights and its adjacent parts. you MIGHT have some small fitment issues since hardly any aftermarket piece fits exact. but if you bring it to a competent bodyshop, it shouldn't be a problem at all. BTW, if you're getting that kit, i hope you're going to have wider wheels on it than the ones used in the pic, it'll definitely need it.
The parts you will need:
S14a lights
S14a front bar
S14a front 1/4 panels
S14a bonnet
S14a grille
Appropriate indicators
The best way, if you are going for a aftermarket bodykit soon, would be to put that on with vented guards/bonnet etc. All bolts up easy, electrics are the same.
Best of luck

no not a show car. and the s14 lights do look bad. they belong on a camery or a maxima. wider wheels you think? fine with me haha .late
sounds like it's going to be a show car. you should drop the engine in there first before doing all the aesthetics. it's not fun to drive all slow and shit with a fat body kit when you got an SR or what not sitting under the hood. it's better to drive fast with the body that you're going to be replacing.
i'll say it again, the S14 lights were modeled after the GTR-32 and GTR-33 lights. so uhhhh....
Linear Mode
