If you want the beauty to be a beast, do performance mods, not show mods.

whatever floats your boat bud, just some advice on the s15 front end conversion, spend the money right the first time and get quality fenders...but then again you called us all morons in your other posts so I guess just go ahead and order some cheap *** fenders

youd want to do some worthwhile mods before doing anything cosmetic, then again we are morons, what do we know? anyway like someone else said your gonna need some quality, perferable jdm fenders, or your gonna mess up trying to cut and shape your fenders now

You wanted our opinion no? You gotta understand that mostly everyone here owns a 240 to drive, not to show. Therefore everyone's gonna orient you on the performance direction. Beast to us means being able to take turns at 50+mph or low 12 at the drag strip. Beast to you might mean being a nice looking car. Dunno how that's be a beast, but whatever. Like S13 said, get good fenders for the conversion. Masa i heard is one of the best.

It's another case of "the 15 year old - excuse me, my bad - SIXTEEN year old kid who thinks he knows everything".

1. Don't call people on this forum morons - after all, you're the one who wants to put FWD wheels on your RWD car, buddy.

Foose Lusso. Google it and check for yourself.

2. You say it will be "worthwhile". To who? To you? Then good for you - it's your car. If I prefer to drive a car that looks close to stock but can kick your *** on the road, then that's my preference. If someone asks for help on the forums and I tell them my opinion, does that change your world? Are you devestated that a lot of us prefer that our cars not look like your idea of pimp-my-ride? Because I don't want FWD wheels on my car, that makes me a moron? I don't think so.

Learn how to drive a RWD, be friendly, and don't think you're Mr. know-it-all because you barely passed your DMV test.

But yeah, the FWD wheels on a RWD thing just gave me the green light to flame you.

i wonder if the kid even knows if his s14 is zenki or kouki. i bet he's researching as we speak.....i would believe that when a car is referred to as a "beast" people would initially think of its motor/performance. kids today want the "show" instead of the "go" first. i would say NO to those mod plans.

I dont know what you mean by "kid", naptime, but I can assure you that not all 'kids' are this way. I just turned 16 two weeks ago, and still have 5 months and 2 days untill I can drive legelly. I have a 89 240 and can promise you I wont turn towards the dark road of rice. Just b/c some younger kids dont know what their talking about dosent mean all the 16 year olds, im just trying to say that dont let kids like this give us a bad name there is a few of us out here.

nice to hear, the younger you start seriously driving the better chance you have of improving, i'm currently taking my sister occasionally to teach her the basics of driving my manual 240sx in empty parking lots (i'm not stupid) and she's only 14. As of this post she can start off in first gear with no prob, and drives around the parking lot with ease. Starting to get her used to the feel of acceleration by flooring it for a second or two and then backing off it. All in first gear, but it's a start.
