Arnt these kits 5grand+?
prob just in parts alone if your lucky

fitting and painting wont be a problem, just your skeptical attitude. not needed.

mind you we are talking about the COST of the kits, not fitting and painting.

so why dont you read posts properly. It has been proven the kit is not 5 grande and is under 2000.

yes but then see how the thread has progressed, this is called a discussion....hence why we are on a thing called a forum to discuss lol. and go get some real world quotes not....oh i heard of some dude getting this done at this price. really a body place to do this and get it right is goin to take a long time to get the fitment right then spray.

so then based on ur "Discussion" of the matter, it will cost 5 grande + 2 grande fitment and paint.

= 7 grande.

I think, it will get all done for a touch under 3 thousand, if not just a bit over. and thats being REALISTIC. and dont say "oh but ull need to suck someones falice" because no, everyone here strives to get the best price by asking the best ppl.

I myself will go to Roger Steen's crash repairers because I have very good relations with him and he does very good work on cars, and I will also get some R34 parts, if any, off nisswreck because I know they are relatively competitive and good people to deal with. It's that simple. The only hard part is finding the time.

For 1,750$ it's gana be ruff and to what i know of its not a bolt up job alot of custom work needed$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Good luck with the price to be under 3k!!! remembering the lights themselves cost $1800 or so, and then a bonnet is around $6-800, so there goes nearly 2.5k without front bar, and guards, which generally would go for about another grand! and then the pannels arn't orig R34! at least 5k your gonna be up for for a "decent" job!

dont like the 34 front on the 33 at all sorry.

lol dont be sorry!

But yer its not so much i love the kit etc i just wanted to do something a bit different and everything wid a 33 has been done to death! lol i was looking at a trust bar first off but then found at a recent car show every second 33 had either a 400r front or trust.. so yer just wanted to go a bit different

i also thought this but they offer a 12 day money back refund if you recieve it and u decide u no longer want it, it looks bad quialty or fitment isnt right. plus they pay the freighting costs back to them...

You will find it hard to do something origional with a ~ 13 yo car

lol yer exactly, and i agree. thats why i have gone this way. i mean by no means is this one of a kind or anything but its a bit different and has a less chance of rocking up to a car show and being placed next to a car looking the same as urs lol u kno

if thats not a great guarantee i cant see any reason why you should stop me from doing this to my car BillyE, no one will laugh at me even if i didnt get all the stuff on my car, because I wouldnt care.

Fair enough.

What am i talking about anyway, i paid 750 for a complete s13.4 conversion.

    • To plug the hole. The engine plant may not have known whether the car it was going into had a gauge or not. It was a long time ago and the integrations might not have been fully modern. Or they might not have cared because the extra inventory and processes to save a few cents on the sender might have cost more anyway. But please tell me you are not still confusing the idea of a pressure gauge sender, and an oil pressure light switch. The switch will be out there. In a separate hole. Probably with only one wire running to it. Running the light.
    • Blower needs to go low on the exhaust side, displacing the AC and PS, which you have to decide whether you want to keep and how and where to relocate if you do. Electric option for PS is, at least, helpful. Sadly, there is no workable 12V electric AC of any value. Whilst the blower is the last compression step before the throttle, and so it might seem a good idea to have it near the inlet manifold (as mentioned above), you probably want it to go through an intercooler first, so, having it on the opposite side of the car facilitates that air flow path. The turbo discharges into the blower, so proximity of the turbo's compressor outlet to the blower's inlet is nice. But then you might want to intercool that too, before boosting it again....which would probably be a ball ache. Routing pipes out to the front and back could be a bit shit. If there was room for (at least) a small (but preferably larger) water to air core on that side, then that would probably be the best approach. I guess a reasonable alternative would be to locate the blower where the alternator is (more or less, associated with the inlet manifold, per Matt's thought), and somehow incorporate a water to air core into the manifold, sort of like they do for modern blown V8s. The big difference here though is that those V8s have only the one throttle (upstream the blower) and only the one compression step (the blower) and no need for too much in the way of bypass/blowoff valves. Whereas in a twin charged 6, you do need to think about one or two bypass valves associated with the 2 compressors and you would prefer to have the intercooling done before the air has to pass through the throttle. You'd like the throttle to work approx the same no matter what the compression is doing. But if it is located in hot air stream before a cooler, then sometimes the air will be real hot, sometimes it will be quite cool, and the throttle mapping/response will be quite different between those two cases. The throttle, if sized for hot air, would be too large for cold conditions. It's all a ball ache.
    • Package SC on exhaust side. Remote mount turbo. Still a fair bit of room when you get creative on the inlet side of the motor too. Especially if you can get really creative with the welding, and effectively build it into the bottom of the inlet manifold. Would definitely take some design work, and some trial and error, to make sure flow works well still! Might be easier to just start with the Nissan March though... All the work is already done for you...
    • I'll sit down and get a post together 😁
    • The factory oil pressure sender is no longer in the car that's what is confusing me. In the Taarks adapter I have an aftermarket Bosch style pressure/temp sender and the factory temp sender only. Oil pressure is perfect. Where does the factory oil temp sender go to if there were never any gauges? Why was it there from the factory?
