I'd go with the ITR conversion because it is factory(go with the metal fenders etc.). The S14 conversion can look really bad if it's not done right. I saw a couple at NOPI at looked lopsided. My friend has theS14 conversion on a 2k Hatch and it's sweet. Go with the ITR less work, better fit.

Go for the ITR conversion with the HID headlights and ballast, shave the door moldings and emblems. IMO both conversions are equally hard to do in terms of labor, but the S14 wasn't made for Integs and I think you should just keep it HONDA. Both look nice but if you're not looking to buy a body kit to match that S14 front bumper, it won't look right whereas the ITR conversion looks just as nice as is! IMO ITR conversion = ICE & S14 conversion = RICE!!! Good Luck in whatever you choose though!!!

I say get what you want. both look good, but i'm sure the ITR conversion won't be as sought after once this damn JDM craze goes away. we live in america. but we can't have our own style, where you can have what you want. no, we have to follow the japanese. if altezza's were the JDM style, you can bet your *** half the people on this board would rock altezza's cuz they were what JDM tuners do. it's overrated.
now that i'm done with my rant, back to the topic.
i think both are clean. just make sure you do it right and get a good body shop to do it, or you will come out with a botched front end conversion. good luck with your mods. make sure to post some pics when you are done.

oh good god yes! how dare you try to be different. on here, unless you do only JDM Honda, your *** is rice. if it's not a JDM ITR conversion, you are RICE. if it's not sleeper 15" wheels, you are RICE. if you like a body kit over a lip spoiler or just stock bumper, you MIGHT be RICE, unless it's a JDM style kit, like a c-west. on here, originality is shunned. only JDM is good, or the sleeper look. i'm just waiting for somone to come on where with a nicely modded engine in some car with big chrome wheels and a flashy kit. i'm sure the **** would hit the fan then

i'm going to have to agree with 95vtecaccord on this one. i do love the jdm conversion, but i think i like the s14 one better, even though its not from honda.

Thank you for beating me to this comment. Don't let anybody TELL you what looks good or what BELONGS on what. You yourself decide what you wanna do to your car. It is always good to get a census on other peoples opinions on the matter but ultimately if you are happy with your results then that is all that matters.
