Does the phrase half cut mongrel enter anyone elses mind. I have no idea why people would basterdise a good car by adding a heap of fibreglass and bog to it. I hate any of those half this half that cars except the r34 front on a stagea as it seems to be the only conversion with any merrit just my opnion .

just my opnion

exactly...

I was thinking of doing this conversion myself until xmas time and rego sent me broke, but we'll see in the new year...

Its not as expensive (apparently) as youd think, ive had a word with the guys at Uras who've done a few of these conversions, and (once again, apparently) theres no real crazy modifications needed.

All that is needed for this to work is:

R33/34 conversion fenders - $300-400 roughly

R34 headlights - $5-600 plus

R34 bonnet - around $2-300 or go aftermarket which is around $500

R34 front bar - $1-200 or once again aftermarket $3-400

Budget around $2000 which should be enough. And if you can source the front panels which are the same colour as your car you are laughing!

Those conversion fenders are popping up all over the place now, so they are not that hard to come by. The only thing thats hard to find ive found is the R34 headlights, and if you can source them they are generally quite expensive...

If your going to do it, good luck and take many a picture!!!

:banana:

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

u r a f**king idiot if u think that an r33 has better aerodynamics then an r34 then ur just a retard!!!!!!!

Saw something weird as today - a s15 body with a R34 head but with WRX doors...pretty hot....

Was this in the West again? :devil: That's some weird conversion.

Come on now... No need for that. We all know R32 has the best aerodynamics. :blink:

hhhmmmm. yea that explains why r34's have a severe porpoising problem (!)

r33's squat lower and are far more stable.

im just saying this from seeing hill climbs, talking to drivers

and driving an r33 and an r34.

i think the r33 has best handling and stability.

i have only had a short squirt in a r32 gtst, so i cant really comment on a r32, all i can say is if u have a r32 gtst your gay. soo guttless

Cant really comment on drivability... but I think R33 looks much tougher.

sorry but i can't find the smiley face with the WTF sign.

:laughing-smiley-014: :laughing-smiley-014:

You bring a smile to my face at the end of a shitty day .

Someone find me the WTF sign please LOL!

Yeah, good to see that you're laughing... :(

But sorry to say, a R33 GTR does look tougher than the R34.... but then the R35 owns all... totally up to the eye of the beholder. :P

I have to agree with the R34 guys, the 34 looks better. The back end is pretty tall, noticed on a SAU cruise, but I'd still love one. That said, I think the R33/4 hybrid looks awesome, and is something different at least. Would like to see pics of one without the wide guards though.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
