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.

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
