yeah its an S14 conversion done in japan of all places... its done by a company that specialises in LA Style tuning, which is... surprise surprise, a style gaining popularity in japan, imitating the americans.

See the yanks only get S14's and S13's as 240sx's and to own a Skyline is a very very expensive hobby, so they convert the front and back to look like a R34. In Japan and Australia its a bit stupid really considering you can buy an R34 GTt for much cheaper than an S14 with that abomination of a kit.

but the s14 is a totally diffrent style to the skylines i believe.

skylines are a tough look and s14s are sexy on wheels like u always hear.

combination of toughness and sexiness...... in my opinion anyway.

god dats a fine car.

agreed skylines are tough and silvias are sleek. Combine them though and you get "arse", especially if you see it from the back, there's heaps more photos of that car floating around. It looks so fake.

Love the front, hate the rear. What would be awesome would be to get the 180sx (so it's a hatchback), get the R34 front on it with the S15 rear conversion. Now THAT would cause some confusion!!!

EDIT: I've been thinking about that ^^^^ for about 5 minutes now, and I have decided I have to do it!!!! I HAVE to do it!!!! No choice!!!! R34/S13/S15 hybrid would be boss!!!

EDIT#2: Get those brakes too, making it an R34, S13, S15, 996 hybrid!!!

That car looks so sexy from the back...R34 lights with the low down back of the S15 *droooools. It was in a recent car mag, I saw it a few weeks ago.

The black part of the bonnet, IS the bonnet. It looks rather cool when open B)

EDIT: Sorry, I have a slow loading connection, I am just getting the pics through :P

I have that issue of HPI, I kind of liked it and kind of hated it also. I think the areas that I liked about it were due to the R34 looking bits (like the front and rear) where as from the side I thought it looked like baby poo. I reckon if they simplified the sides a little it would've looked better.

    • New CAS just turned up from NZ Wiring. Looks like a nice bit of gear.  So, yeah. Triggered, bro. Realised I may as well do the cam belt while mucking about with it so will order one of them.
    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.
