Ae92 GTS front end swap to sedan???

I just bought an 89 GTS and I hate the stupid pop up headlight front end. I have seen the Levin conversions and like the look but think it looks a lot like a USDM sedan front end. My question is has anyone swapped a USDM sedan front end onto a GTS and do they have pics????

That would be interesting.... they are both supposed to be ae92 chassis so maybe.... all the suspension compentents and what not swap over no problem it would be very interesting if someone did that, it'd make for a cheap levin conversion heheh

Wow.. dunno what to say. I would rather have either Zenki or Kouki Trueno than the Sedan front.. even Levin front than the sedan front. The only thing I don't like about the north american front end is the stupid Rebar deal.. if we didn't require rebars in NA we would all have nice JDM style fronts.

if you use the full front end panels, it should work. but if you use the headlights, grille and fenders from the sedan and use the GT-S bumper, you'll have a little gap between the bumper and the grille.

Don't think I'll be doing this swap anyway, I finally got the car home and it has way more front end damage than I originally thought (Don't buy a car at night!). Maybe I'll look for an SR5 to swap my GT-S parts onto, then swap out the front end??
