Default Ideas and Questions in regards to my Gazelle

Hey guys.
I recently got a Gazelle to fix up for myself so currently i am working on the exterior.
Here are my ideas if i could get some feedback , opinions or even suggestions that would be great.

1 - Skyline lights i have always loved the skyline lights and always loved s12 and s13's so best of both worlds. I have seen them on some cars on the net what do you reckon of them.

2 - I am wanting to do something with the standard s12 grille, something what would look like, either a mould or some nice looking steel metal in replace of it, what do you suggest.

3 - Will any other sexier pop up lights fit the s12, or could you do something like angel eyes on them, just something different.

4 - I have the coupe gazelle and wanting to install new locks on the car do you have any suggestions on what locks may be good to get as someone broke into the gazelle recently though the drivers side.

5 - What is this MK1 and MK2 i keep hearing about i cant find anything about it.

6 - Does anyone know where i can get a clear version of the front lights under the pop up lights from instead of the cloudy white color.

7 - What seats can slot in without too much hassle into the s12 what look nice.

8 - Does anyone have any links in regards to getting a body kit for my s12.

9 - and lastly how hard would it be to change the led's in the dash from orange to blue or white ???

Cheers guys and thanks.

1. yep s13eater has had these for a while now=) made by cutting holes in the std rear clusters and mounting them in there. Wether you do this to your car is personal taste though

2. Again a matter of taste more thean anything else.. i was thinking along the lines of colourcoding the mk2 grille but again, its about what YOU like

3. have a rummage on ebay, there are clear lampsets for the s13 which have optional halo rings inside.. these update the look of the car no end and for a relatively good price too the examples i have seen have been universal LHD/RHD too so although you lose the extra ares of light used to see roadsigns everyone can use them without worry.

4. I'm not sure what other locksets will fit, i would suggest a wanted ad in all the forums fora 2nd hand set.

5. there were a few revisions to silvias design along its production history, bigger bumpers and bump strips, refined interior styling, rerouted turbo oil feed, better ancilliary pully system for the mk2, different rear lights, gearbox revisions.. those are the differences i can think of off the top of my head.

6. not seen any of these yet, sure they will sell like hot cakes if anyone does find them though..

7. most seats will require a little bit of fabrication to fit well. i have some s14/15 leather seats i forget but will find out, they will fit nicely with a cunningly drilled length of angle (i suggest aluminium) again the innovator s13eater has fitted what i remember to be seats from a toyota supra. i've really lost my memory today, as i cant even remember what needs to be done to fit a pair of them.

8. http://www.nissansilvia.co.uk/vbb/showthread.php?t=690 andy makes splitters and spoilers for the s12..

http://www.silviagod.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ silviagod makes a larger variety of fibreglass bits for s12's

sunny zx sideskirts also fit if you're hunting for something on a budget

9. there are no led's in the dash, they are clear bulbs which shine through painted acrylic.. check out http://www.nissansilvia.co.uk/vbb/showthread.php?t=1253 for more details
