Hey,

Im seriously looking into get a S14 and doing the strawberry faced conversion to it as I want something different. I have been looking for sites to find out info but are mainly about the 180sx.

So I have found a place in Victoria that can sell me all the bits I need out of a magazine but I would like to know if anywere in Sydney do it and the quality of the panels that they have....

All im looking for is some info on procedure and problems that I might face and if anyone has done it themselves or had a good workshops done it for them??

I know all about the cost involved but am willing to give it a shot to do something a little different....

hiya, we've done a few conversions on S14's to S15 fronts now. One of the workshop's demo cars is an S1 S14 with a frontend conversion. It was in HPi recently too. Anyways... some pics:

Most of the parts used are genuine Nissan (headlights, latches, bonnet etc) and the adapters etc are all fabricated to fit properly first time, so there's hardly any issues. Most of the cars that come in have accidents in the front so the major hold up is usually fixing radiator supports and things like that. We've done a few NSW cars too now basically the owners drive the car up, leave it with us and then they come and pick it up when its done.

not really my shop, just do some work there and tinker with my cars there. Details are on the front page of

Cost is I think around $2750 for parts and labour (not including paint) with a trade in on the parts that are taken off the car. Although that's for 180sx strawberry conversion, ring Roshan on the contact number on the site and tell him you're from SAU and he should give you a good price.
