Why don't you fill us in on which s13 your car is. Is it the sileighty or the coupe?

Kouki and Zenki are only oriented with the s14 models. That blue car you just showed is just a sileighty(jdm) with a stock front end.

negative, a sileighty is this front end



on a fastback. you were right about the kouki / zenki though.

r32 front ends look good...the strawberry face is a lil flashy imo. are you building the car for anything in particular? if you do the sileighty front end, you can use an r32 grill, which looks clean. (its in the pic above)

you really need to learn more about a topic before you preach... zenki and kouki can refer to any car... i'm not japanese so i don't know the exact definitions, but i believe zenki just refers to earlier model and kouki to later model..

if you look at zenki ps13 they come with ca18det motors and non projector headlights. kouki came with 2 or 3 beam projectors and sr20det red top
