Hey,

There are ppl putting r33\r34 fronts on stageas, so would you be able to do the reverse? (Stagea front on a r33)

What is involved with the front conversions to put skyline front on stagea? would it be pretty much the same process to do the stagea front on a skyline?

I just want to try and make a "unique" r33 which is damn hard to do.

The Stagea shares a similar chassis number as the ER34, being WCGN34, so dimensionly they are similar, but not the same

The Stagea front end conversion to R34 GTR uses custom guards to go from the Stagea door shape to the R34 front and a R34 radiator panel which needs some work to fit, along custom brackets to mount bonnet

If you were going to try a Stagea front to a Skyline the best car would be a R34 not a R33

I am half way thru a Stagea front end conversion

i rekon the stagea front is too square for the r33's roundness if u get what i mean. keep in mind tho i know sfa about stageas having never seen one in the metal b4.

either way i rekon that you would have achieved the impossible and create a unique 33 if u pull this off. keep us posted and good luck

In an attempt to make a r33 "unique"

Lots of other ways to make a 33 unique, but each to their own I guess. You might wanna get someone to photochop a stagea front on to a 33 before you even start. You don't want to blow all tht $$, time and effort and have an outcome that you're not happy with and make it even harder for you to sell when the time comes...

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
