I found a Skyline R33 1996 S2 4 door turbo man, and was wondering if the tail lights on it could be changed to the standard series II 2D coupe skyline tail lights. The ones that are on the car now, arent like the normal ones but instead look like the older ones. Its hard to explain without a picture.

Anyways, can i put the other lights on to it? I would think so, as they really never change the body shape if its the same series.

Also, would i be able to change the front headlights to the Series II 2D coupe head lights?

all the doors are different, if u have a look, the ass end on a 2dr and a 4dr are a totally different shape. the front end, however, could be changed to 2dr if u want.

unfrotunately the rear would have to remain 4dr style, either series 2 or series 1 look..... Personally i like the 4dr series 1 look better....

Hmm, ok. Well i was having a look at them and was thinking about putting the 2dr taillights on with the 2dr rear bumper. I say this because it seems as though the tail light shape is the same, but the bumper is higher since the indicator and rev light are in the middle (like a R32)

How about that?

Edit:

One other thing, am i going to have trouble finding a body kit for the rear? and parts? eg 2dr series 2 head lights and bumper.

All front end on a 4 door eg bumper, lights and bonnet are the same as the 2 door. One thing you can do to the Rear is to get some Autech tail lights (only cause they look kool) and color code them to your car like this one.

Pretty sure those rear lights are standard series 2 fair. This was my old series 2 sedan that I imported 1.5yrs ago in manual.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
