Question s14 front end on an s13 hatch?

Anyone have any pics of this or seen it done? I have scoured the internet but have'nt found any...found alot of s15 coversions(strawberry face) but I LOVE the s14 with the slim headlights and love the back of s13 hatches...

it's been done a few times over in japan. never seen it on a US car.

things to remember


S14 is much larger inthe front than an S13. You'll need mega over fenders and like a 17x9+0 to make it look right

nobody makes conversion fenders for this, so look to need custom fenders made, as well as a custom hood, and probably have to mess with the core support as well.

as with anything, with enough time and money you can do anything.

i've seen pics of the s14- on a s13...before you do it make sure you see it because it didn't look look that good ......
but also keep in mind that they modified
a s13 (s15 strawberry face )bumper, fenders and hood to make it work ....i would rather put in the s15 lights
than goto all that work for the " angry eyes "
it's not what you asked but who the hell am i
but it supports the reason why you haven't seen many .....
they have the s14 kit for " rice trendy " fwd cars ..
but no s13 sorry

i dont think it would look that good on the hatch.

i think...
strawberry face is to hatch
as
angry eyes is to coupe.

just my opinion.

plus you could just section the middle of the facia and hood a few inches in the middle to fit the s13 chassis. just need someone that can weld body panels good and straight and can do some good fiber glassing.
