If your car is the yellow one in your sig then its a S13(180sx)

89-94: S13
95-98: S14
99-up: S15

good luck with trying to do a S14 conversion. You need to cutomize alot cus there's no "kit" to do it.

S13 is the chassis

s14: 95-98

95-96 zenki
97-98 kouki

I've seen a kouki conversion on a 180sx chasses, its pretty bad a$$. I forgot what the company is called but its in Japan.

Yes there are kits to do that. They are expensive though.

MASA of japan makes a conversion kit.

JTgoesWoof, Build a car based on what you like, dont copy someone thats weak.

Use the search function it makes things easier.

to be totally specific, s13 is an abbreviation for the chassis code of the 240, all cars have chassis codes, the fastback 240sx, from 89-94 has a chassis code of "RPS13" while the coupe has the chassis code "PS13"... this is exactly why the skyline is referred to as an R32, R33 or whatever... just a lil bit of trivia
