Hey fellas,

As the topic suggests, anyone done a R33-R34 front conversion yet? I am very interested in doing this - how hard would it be, what would be involved and what would costs look like?

What can I say, a flawless R33 body and tough back lights with a breath-taking R34 front bar - damn, if only such a car is sold on the market... no other car would come close.

Please post up some pictures and/or your experiences.

Thanks all.

When I read the subject line I thought "oh no, dont tell me..."

but when I saw the pics I thought that actually doesn't look too bad.

I'm all for making your car unique as long as it still looks good and IMO this fits the bill perfectly.

If you did this you'd have one VERY unique ride >_< would turn heads for sure!

That looks tough as! I probably couldn't justifying spending so much to do it though. Probably better off selling the 33 and getting a 34, but even then you wouldn't have a 34 gtr kit on it.

just buy an r34...

i dont know why ppl do this shit....

its like 34 gtr fronts on stageas, i dont like them either.

waste of time and money imo.

people do this because apart from the front nose all r34 look shit house. the rear is 10 metres off the ground and porpoise like a bitch. they are big fat bricks with no incling of aerodynamics.

atleast here u still have the nice flowing lines of a r33 with the sharp bulbous nose of the 34.

best of both worlds

u see how it looks low and sharp. where as if he bought a 34 is would look shit

nice job, but still not worth the cash

for the money you'd pay you can get a 34

Actually, it doesn't cost all that much considering.

A couple of thousand inc panels.

And considering people are struggling to sell R33s for $13000 these days, it's a far sight less then buying an decent 34.

Not sure what 34's you've been looking at. The only reason that 33 looks low is because of the rear bar. Get a similar thing on a 34 and it'll look low as.

Couldn't have said it any better... you stole my words... exactly mate, and this is totally personal - but the R33 has very fine looking lines, a great shape and a timeless look to it... the front is tough as too so overall, in my opinion; the R33 if modified cosmetically right (or R33 GTR stock) looks awesome... having said that... the R34 front is (especially on the GTR) is... damn... I'm stuck for words... totally jaw-dropping... very nice... hence, a lot of people do this conversion as you get best of both worlds...

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
