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!!!

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.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
