Hi people, just wondering what parts are required to put a S2 front onto a S1 R33. Guessing it's Bonnet, Grill, Headlights, front bar, front indicators. Anything else? Bonnet latch? Reo bar?

Yep. So the conversion is purely exterior cosmetics? As, if you look inside, there are differences as well.

Whats so "wrong" with a S1 that you would want to make it a S2, the headlights are only slightly different, your better off putting and after market front bar on as a lot of owners do (no matter if its a S1 or S2) and the only other thing i know of at a glance is the trim between the tail lights is body color on a S2, personally i think the body color one looks more out of place than the S1 item.

Probably work out better to sell up and put in the extra few grand and grab a Series II... newer engine/suspension, newer/better looking exterior and updated/better interior.

Reason is I put a nice big scratch down the side which I'm pissed at myself about, so the car needs painting, so was thinking since it needs doing I might as well put on the better looking s2 front. Most kits just don't look right without skirts and everything else done too, plus the car is stock.

    • Waaay ahead of ya....(evil laugh!!) Will show the fitment and spec details later when it isnt as rainy !
    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
