including headlights, hood, bumper, and fenders...not to mention the core support...
you're looking at around 2000 - 3000 dollars, depending on how you do it. 2k is the cheapest you'll be able to get it, and that's with the ****ty parts that my friend used. if you want to do it, spend 3g's and do it right.

Well, my friend just traded away his S13. He now has an S14 with S15 front end, which he's going to sell and replace with a stock one.
A friend of mine is looking at a very nice S13 with a strawberry conversion, very very neat! Will post some pictures if he decided to buy it.
Tis cool how everyone has a project going on! My conversion is about a month away and I cant wait, Ive been stuck with the CA(DE) for over 2 years now .. the wait is almost over.

Well, I'm now thinking of selling my S14. My plan is to get an S13 and mod it up similarly, and then I'll have about 2000-3000 extra, which will go towards an SR. Just have to get my parents to clear the sale (I was 17 when I got it, so it's in their name).
for the most part, body kit copies like the ones on raceonusa fit ALRIGHT. the front bumper and back bumper or valences will most likely need a little bit of modification, but the side skirts will bolt right up. you'll just have to drill holes in your side skirts to bolt them up.
epic, what type of kit did you order? i just bought real works side skirts from a shop that i go to alot, and they look pretty nice. as soon as they're on my car i'll take pictures. only problem is they dont match my front bumper and lip, so i might end up selling the sides or just buying a new bumper. let me see pictures of your kit when its installed =]

holy crap thats expensive, I can get a RB20DET for 2000$... I was thinking somewhere around the 500-1000$ area.. found one for 600$ but has 90k miles, the CA18DET is nissans most reliable engine ever, but still, I know its an old engine and all but I need something with less than 70k miles and 500-1000$ price range.. with tranny, uncut harness, ecu, etc.

gee, how come i didn`t find this place earlier?
anyways, i`m a pre-silvia owner. and hopefully i`ll soon own one again. owned a s13 RS13 hatchback with the ca18det engine. and yes. it is a beatuiful engine. so i`m prolly going for a new one in a couple of months
on the discussion of what engine is best of CA and SR: i`ve seen it been discussed everywhere. and it`s no answer to it. if you want revs you get the ca, if you want response and drag you go for the SR. here in norway i`ve seen MANY examples on people getting 280-300 HP on the wheels with stock internals on both CA`s and SR`s. it`s all about how you build it
about the RB-engines the RB26 is my fav. alot better internals then the RB25
