Question Conversion Help Needed.

Hey, I love the Silvia, especially after seeing them all over in Japan and finally actually being in one. I want to get a US 240sx and do an S14 conversion. I have a lot of questions however.

By S14 conversion, I mean I want the car to look similar to these photos.

Which year 240 should I get?

Where can I begin to find the parts I need to do the conversion itself (I want to do just the cosmetics for now)?

Is there anything I should be aware of when purchasing a used 240 as far as parts that should be replaced as soon as I buy it/parts that are known to wear quickly?

Where can I find a good deal on a 240?

Welcome to the forums. Like ReigH said, thats a 97-98 240sx. As for the kit, I dunno what it is. Search around the forums a bit, theres a thread in the FAQ section, I believe, about common problems. You can check autotrader, ebay, cars.com, craigslist, and forum classified sections to try and find a 240 for sale.
