hmmm
i would realy have to think about it, i know when my dad used to try and get his muscle cars across the border the wouldnt let him sometimes, twice he had to take it apart and bring it across as parts.

but i found another for he said he would take 1500 for it has very minor front end damage, but since i want to do a silvia front end anyways i may do it

and i do have a pic if you want to see it, nothing in the engine bay is broken only the light but everything else seems straight

Yes, put up the pics. I'll let you know what you have to do to it, post up front, side and top views of the damage and whatever you can get of the damage from inside.

Easy fix, new radiator support and straighten out the frame rail on the driver side. Pick up a head light from the junk yard and your good to go. Pick that up before someone else does!

Just noticed the crease above the front wheel, the frame rail/apron section might be out of alignment, but any body shop will be able to make it straight again with no problem.

Nah, the cost to fix the radiator support would be about the same cost as buying a new one and installing it. Still depends on the shop, but if I were you, get it done the right way the first time.

so in another words it is something that i wouldnt be able to do?

i also found an add a few hours from me with a s14 front end 300 bucks with everything. i have no clue about body damage or anything but can a frame rail be straightened out by hammer and anvil type thing or is it something a bodyshop should take car of?

and if i do happen to get it those stickers are comming off
looks a little greasy

Removal and repair of a raidator support takes a circular cutter, drill, alignment tools, clamps and welder. Also need to know how to do it all correctly, otherwise the whole front will be way out of alignment.

So yeah, its a body shop job.

And no, just pick up a stock S13, that S13/14 thing sounds like it has major issues.
