Find someone who is good at photoshopping and get them to photoshop an S15 front end onto a photo of your R32. That way, we can all see what it will look like and go from there. I think It'd look weird, but it could work. Up to you. But what about a 180SX front end? Or something outside the Nissan camp altogether?

might post on the photochop section

we'll see ...

S15 front on an R32 looks like arse, the S15 face demands a smooth back with curves, ie a S15 or a 180sx. An S15 front on an R32 looks like a S15 front on a S13 silvia with round taillights. The R32 demands a chunky front, to match the chunky butt. Even the S15 front on an S14 is kinda borderline for me, it works only because the s14's kinda rounded at the back.

There's a yellow S13 silvia in the US with an S15 front and Skyline tail lights grafted onto it. Looks like a steaming pile of shit.

For an R32 you want something butch... why not try a DTM style mercedes, audi or BMW front? Panels are readily available locally, they'll fit the lines of the R32 and it'll be quite different. If you wanna be REAL cheeky, grab a VE commodore frontend and graft it on. VE's look tough as fron the front.

it'll be even more sweeter if you do an LS1 swap which is getting more and more common in nissans these days... lighter than an RB25DET and makes more power with a LOT of potential for big numbers... plus it sits further back in the car further between the wheelbase, so it won't be as nose heavy.

this is the most bad ass conversion imo...... 180sx front on an s15 such a smooth transition in body lines.... unlike the s15 front on a skyline which is a pointy front end to a beefy rear which make it look hurtinnnnnnn it doesn't flow what soever

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
