R33 front bar swap

[Peter Wilson]

Advise to a newbie please...

Is it possible to put a S2 front bar/nose onto a S1 R33 GTS-T? If so, do you use the S1 or S2 reinforcement (or are they the same?) Do all of the mounting points line up?

I have heard that there may be fit problems around the grille and lights, but this was from a dubious source.

Cheers, Peter (ie: no clever tag)

to do a series II conversion on a series 1 you need to change the re-inforcement, headlights, grill, bonnet and bumper.

if you only want to swap the bumper you'll need the re-inforcement for the series II cause its different to the series 1.

are you sure ahmed? ive seen a r33 series 1 wit a series 2 grille series 1 bonett and headlights no swap.

i thought u only needed to change headlights and bonett if u wanted to s2 conversion...i am in the process of doing this conversion at the moment have got headlights and fibreglass bonnet for series 2 but am ordering veilside front soon...so do i really need a s2 reo bar ahmed? how sure are you thanks man

the series II grill wont fit as its bigger (doesnt fit between the 2 series 1 lights). and the series II reinfircement is totally different than series 1.

Just to clarify, I only want to swap the front bar to S2 - leaving S1 grill and headlights....

that should be fine can change the front bar no problem but you 'll need a series II reinforcement

could be wrong, but doesnt it mean your headlights sit back an inch.. or forward.. i cant remember..
