Need help quick

Ok i need help decided what front end to go with on the fastback. A guy that runs a shop around here owes me some money so hes gonna order me stuff and i want to get the parts for the conversion. Ive only seen sizzoo's that has the s15 conv. and i havent really seen any with the s13 except a black one and i cant even find that. If anyone can find me some good pics of either of these that would be cool. Oh and ive already seen the signal twins. Thanks.

Why not the s13 silvia front end? Just an idea, here is a link to a pic of my buddies s13. Its a KA but has tein HE coilovers, act stage 4 clutch, and other drift goodies. =D

^The s14 is my buddy jeds. He has a s13 blacktop SR with some goodies on it such as a hks gt28 turbo =D and bunch of other stuff. It came with low compression pistons with it. ANYWAY, that has nothing to do with the topic, james car is the one behind it.

IMO...fastbacks should not get the s13 front end treatment cuz they never had it...the s15 conversion IMO looks pretty damn good on the fastback...i would go with that, but it is CONSIDERABLY more expensive (like 3 or 4 times as much)...but as always...its whatever you want to do...

thanks man, i think im gonna go with the s13 front because of price and ive never actually seen one driving around, actually i dont see any fixed up 240s in my whole damn county so it should be good. hopefully i can start ordering the parts for it this weekend. Just a few questions.....best makers of the fenders for the s13, and when i get my headlights and corners, do they usually come with the brackets or whatever i need to bolt them up?

what you mean by oem fenders is the s13 oem fenders right? Are there any aftermarket companys that make the fenders or do you know a place to get them? Im gonna be getting my front end piece by piece and i havent really looked to see if theres a place to buy the fenders themselves.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2436382066 ok this is the link for the square headlights with the brackets it says, so if someone could tell me thats the brackets i need.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2436332045 heres the link for the projector style lights, this doesnt have the bracket the other one does but does it look find anyway because that bracket looks like a piece of metal that i could make myself.
And what do you guys think, square lights or projector, i like them both equally and cant decide.

Search around google.com and look for s13 conversion and u should ocme across a few sites..also look on ebay they got sum on there. And u can make the brackets urself if u trust urself..but i would just buy it w/ brackets.
