S15 Front End On Cefiro ?

[Gameboy]

Hi, ive been thinking of buying a Cefiro in the near future and was wondering if an s15 front end will go on a Ceffie ?

Any front end will go on, but it most definitely won't be a straight swap. That is only possible on S13 silvia/180sx because they have the same chassis and doors.

You will need conversion guards, but I doubt anyone makes them, so you'll need to cut up both pairs of guards and join the S15 guards to the cefiro guards. You'll need custom headlight mounting brackets. Don't know if the S15 front bumper reo fits on the cef or not, might need to cut and weld the S15 reo to the cefiro one to fit it. Bonnet, if you are lucky it will fit, otherwise you might need to do something there (like get a fibreglass one and make it longer?)

It's not like this kind of thing hasn't been done before, (think sky-firo, 180-line, s15-80, cef-line), but is going to depend alot on your patience and wallet

lol stuff that. I was reading that they share some parts with Silvia's and thought it would be a bolt on job.

BAHAHAHAH sorry, but yeah not even a chance.

The parts that they share with silvias (S13) refers to things like,

front end: shocks, hubs, uprights (hub carrier), brakes, strut brace, control arms, castor arms

rear end: diff, driveshafts, suspension, hubs, uprights, camber/toe/traction arms.

Parts that are shared with skyline, engine and gearbox (slight differences), rear brakes and handbrake, seats.

When it comes to body panels, only thing that comes close to fitting is the laurel, (think laurfiro). Essentially the laurel is the same as a cefiro, except they have a different body shell. But unlike the s13 silvia/180sx, the doors are not the same so you have problems getting the laurel guards to line up with the cefiro doors (they rub and the body lines don't match).

Cef's don't have the same chassis as anything except for laurels. There are similarities in certain parts, but like I said before you'll need conversion guards, custom head light mounts among other things.
