Who put the colt or evo front end on their 1G?????????

[Zach Holt]

Hey guys I remember seeing them post photos on the forum about a year ago? I think dark coloured dan with a big turbo...

I just want to ask a couple questions because I love my car but I am sick of the way it looks ahah. I've had 1g dsms for over 6 years and just want to change it up.

I'm think of tossing that front end on when wide bodying it and wide bodying the rear with some 240 quorters. Should look bad ass and take a couple weeks to pump out with out a shop at my disposel. I Might even chop the top by cutting the Apost and pushing it back 20deg and in doing so drop the roof line by 3 or 4 inchs then recage it after all is said and done. Not to sure yet.

But a hand with buddys name on the forum would be wicked.

Thanks guys. See you at the track next month

Don't think it was evo/colt. Something else JDMish, s14 does ring a bell.

yea tons of this. but im not really that in to it.

yeah, it was a S14 front end converted to a 1G.  I think the guy who did it lives on the island.


Sounds like from the plans of what you want to do... it should end up the exact same as the last time you tired to do major cosmetic mods...  Car ended up being parted out and the shell in a crusher.

Good idea if you could carry through with it.

I for one am for for keeping the body stockish looking and getting it running 9 sec 1/4 miles first, THEN worry about how it looks!

Take it easy Brett. You might hurt his feelings.

i am pretty sure it is actually a s13 silvia front end conversion. the s14 headlights have way more of a slop/angle to them

[Brett Haviland]

ahhh thats correct glen.. OOPS.  good thing im not a nissan guy!

Im just sick of the look of the car to be honest.

[Zach Holt]

I saw some really cool 2g kits and the one guy on the forum had a silver one with no read end behind the wheels. O thought that was bad ass. Edit: Jeetinder Ghataurah's car! that was siick at that point. I wonder what it looks like now.

[John Hartman]

[Zach Holt]
