i was wondering, is there a kit you can get to convert your pop up lights in the S13 to a non retracting permanent headlight? i've never beena huge fan of pop up lights, and i think that permanent always visable lights look better. thanks for any help, as usual,

There have been some in Japan but none are offered here in the states. Actually if you talk to Robert(www.projectsilvia.com) or Karim(R390sports) they should be able to get you some. You might want to take a look at www.takakaira.com they are located in Japan and ship to the US. I hope you have some money saved. The cheapest ones I have seen are the East Bear and they run about 600. Good luck.

Oh and you can also check out www.clearcorners.com they do lots of custom stuff and offer a mid height popup that looks real good but will cost you a fortune(1800!?). But the quality is supposed to be amazing.

D-speed also makes some, but they cost a but load. Plus they can also get you a ticket cause they use fog lights. You can always get a silvia conversion. Then you can get a choice of 2 or 3 beam projectors. Email www.boostfactor.com and see what they can do for you. Or you can also check out J-spec too. I've gotten stuff from both of them and they are very reliable. Plus they always have good stuff on hand.

I have a friend with the East Bear kit. A nice alternative to the pop-ups, but the round lights are not exactly in keeping with the S13 form. AB-Flug makes a set that look very similar to the Z32 headlights. An excellent match with the S13 body lines. These are typically TWICE as much as the East Bear units.
