This Nissan 240SX Widebody Restomod Is Arguably The Most Stunning S13 You’ll (N)ever See
If you’re curious as to why you’ll (likely) never get to feast your eyes on this beauty, it’s because it’s the latest CGI render from the super-talented team over at pistonzero.
We can only hope the unveiling of their latest virtual creation inspires someone to build this incredible 240SX widebody in the real world. (With their permission, of course!)
Alongside the Nissan 240SX, their incredible designs are primarily focused on JDM cars, letting their imagination run wild on what’s possible.
Although they’ve released quite a few projects, this 240SX has to be one of our favourite ‘builds’ from them to date, though. We love the fine details that have been included.
The carbon-clad front end gives off Forza Horizon 5 cover car vibes – think Mercedes-AMG, with a hint of Porsche aggression.
Although the much-loved pop-ups are gone, with sleepy-eyed LEDs in their place, it (somehow) works perfectly.
At the rear, modern LED lights are paired with a diffuser that features even more carbon (because why not?), along with HKS burnt-tip exhausts – titanium, no doubt!
Dishy Rotiforms are tucked perfectly under the wide fenders, wrapped in grippy semi-slick Toyos – possibly R888Rs? Understandably, it wasn’t designed with drifting in mind. Not that we blame them – imagine the devastation after a failed wall run!
Meanwhile, the modern touches blend seamlessly with the classic styling of the louvers on the rear window.
The chunky, curvy styling, along with the subtle bronze touches, complete the whole look perfectly.
As it heads to the virtual streets for the rolling shots, it showcases what this insane 240SX could look like if someone were to actually build it.
If I had the spare cash burning a hole in my pocket, I’d undoubtedly go to these guys to create a truly unique, one-of-a-kind design for my Nissan Silvia S15.
No way I’d have the guts to go full send with it after they’d worked their magic, though, even if my inner (wannabe) drift hero thinks otherwise!
