Yeah you can do the swap it will be a little more involved then if you had a 91 up. Just minor stuff like moving the ps reservoir and doing a tach adapter or getting a guage cluster from a 91 up. I would suggest getting a whole front clip. This way you will have everything that you need for the swap.

Good sites are www.projectsilvia.com talk to Robert he can get you a front clip as well as other goodies.

www.heavythrottle.com has lots of good info on what you need and they can get you lots of things too.

www.nissan180.8k.com is R390Sports site. Talk to Karim he can get you lots of goodies as well.

Hope this helps you get on your way.
