so i was lookin up prelude mods and ive never seen this befor but people have converted ther 4th and 5th gen preludes into skyline hybrids?! the look freakin AMAZING! ...id def consider doin that to my 5th gen...but i think to jus get the rear lights and body done its like round $5,000...so its still cheaper than an actuall skyline but i think the lude weighs more so it might not run the exact same times. do you guys think it would be worth it for me to take the time and money and make my lude a hybrid too? ....i could always try and put a R33 - 34 or 35 engine in??

I have seen a couple 4th gens that have pulled it off nicely. You can convert the 5th gen rear but the front is just too much work.

Intersting. I wouldn't do it, but it really doesn't look all that bad.

yeah i figured it might be...but i love the R33 and 34 skylines and i kinda figure ill never really get one lol so idk...is the main work in the front reworking the whole front end with the lights and all? basically everything?

yeah the entire from end bumper, headlights, hood, core support, fenders and tons of other stuff to change around that needs to be done.

That Black one isnt slow hehe

Plus if you have any clue how to do it yourself without it looking like crap then it wont cost that much just the cost of parts, which in all reality isnt bad at all.
