Post Supra front conversion??

Not that I own a SC400 to do this on but, someone told me that they do Supra 93-97 conversions on Soarers in Japan..

I've never seen it , but is that possible?

I know the SC400 and supra have a lot in common but is the front end similar? If the fenders/hood/lights/frontbumper/bumper support were used would it line up? are the bodies that similar??
And if so then it would probably work vice versa.. Soarer front on a supra..


Thanks!

if u look at it, ...no i dont think it will work nicely, the bodies are too different it will look funky! but what would be interesting is a 98+ GS front on a supra, eah i still love the supras whole look, dont need no mods there

Erm...

I've seen (from websites, some Japanese magazines too) Z20's (MkII) Soarers having their fronts swapped onto MA70 Supras... looks interesting, something like a Sil-Eighty, Toyota style.

I'll find the link when possible, it's a pain to find (I remember it floating around on the net somewhere), I think it's also in an Option or Option2 magazine

Yes...

There was a SC4 in Socal (old style = purple w/ dragon - new style grey) who had a supra front lip on his car. I think the kit was a Veilside.
