Skyline ???

Okay, I am such a noob, and I know this question has probably been asked about a hundred times, but I heard from my cousin that a 240sx could be converted into a Skyline.

Is this true? If so, can you guys shed some light on the process for me, or give me a good link that could do so?

Thanks.

give it a search, there is a bunch on here, lots of pictures of it too.

I'm no expert on this by any means, but it doesnt become a skyline, it just looks similar. you can put the front end (headlights, fenders, bumper, hood) and the rear (taillights) onto a 240. and you can swap the engine to an RB.

as far as going to All Wheel Drive, Unstable Hybrids is working on a kit to do it, but I dont know much about that...

and just about anything can be converted into, well, just about anything. do a search on conversions and check some of them out. I've seen in person a honda accord that had an R34 skyline front and rear.

and welcome to the forums too

if you got the money you can do anything you want, though IMHO it looks kinda odd, the skyline front end with the 240 body, nifty idea in theory, but eh...point is its very possible, i think theres a pic of a s14 with a Skyline front end going around

the closest i think u can get to it is w/an S13 coupe w/an R32 front end and tail lights, and maybe some widebody fenders. oh, and RB power, of course.
