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.

Hope that gives you some Idea

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.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
