Unique R33

[Angr33_Sparcorella]

Hey guys,

Just need some help and a couple of suggestions on what needs to be done to change the front of my R33 to a R34 face. I'm hopefully going to buy some panels from another member, but thats still pending.

I've only heard of one other WA person doing this, so i'm interested in doin it too.

I need to know, what reinforcement parts do i need to get to change the face?

All help would be greatfull and hopefully i'll make this work, yay lol.

As long as you know you need the bonnet, fenders, front bar and lights to do it.

I remember reading a thread on here about some one who did it, and the hardest part was mounting the lights from memory. They had to make some brackets or something as they sit in a different position to the R33. Do a search, mabe you'll stumble across that thread. He gives a pretty detailed explination of what he did

Yeah, thats looks wiked. I was talking to a friend and he was saying it wont be as simple as i thought. If u look at the 33 and 34 closely the 33 fender panel finishes before the A frame and the 34 fender panel finishes after the frame. He sed i'll need to get adjustable fenders. :S

How much do you think the bonnet, headlights, fenders, and front bumper would cost all up?? I need to give another member a price but dont really know wat a realistic price would be. Cheers.

You will need conversion fenders, the R34 fenders wont bolt straight up.

Not sure about how reliable VIVA is, but it should give you an idea. Although you can merge R33 and an R34 fenders to get something a lot stronger, altho it will be more work.

Good luck, if I was keeping my R33, this is the conversion I wanted to do.

[viet_boi]

think you would need side skirts too.

depending what kit you buy, will determine how easy or hard the conversation becomes.

the BEE-R kit cost alot but comes with pretty much everything you need.

if you just buy the conversation fenders then there is alot of work involved

good luck

i'm selling most of my front end parts...

actually, selling my Bonnet, Front Bar, Fenders... you'll just need headlights, if you're interested then just pm me...

i can find stock front bar if you want instead of the broken and cracked URAS

let me know, cheers

[Angr33_Sparcorella]

Thanks. Yeh i've spoken to Strich9 about adjustable fenders, so all i'll need now is the bonnet, headlights and a front bumper. If i can get them for a reasonable price, i'll be rollin.

Wouldn't it just have made sense to buy an R34 instead if that's the look you wanted?? If you had it for a long time like Kym has then it might make sense if you were willing to pay decent money to make it happen, but in the end it will cost more then getting a very nice kit put on. Each to their own but that's just my opinion

[viet_boi]

yeah he could just buy a R34, but you wouldnt really much stand out..cause it'll be another R34 GTT or GTR

have a R33 with R34 and be the only one in W.A or second one..

you stand out heaps and people will remember it more..

if that makes sense..

then agian paying big bucks for it..good luck with the project

when i first saw the kit on a car...

over east, car was Silver R33 GTR with obviously R34 GTR front... wide everything with Carbon Fibre bonnet and had a sweet sweet wing...

fell in love, skirts and everything matched so well, don't have a picture but i'm sure some of you would have seen it before...

if you go ahead with this which i'm assuming you will, hottest R33 on the street in my opinion, only my opinion though bahaha

[Angr33_Sparcorella]

Haha thanks, yeh i want a unique car not just another 34. Hopefully it wont cost too much coz i have great ppl helping me out. I was already planning on gettin my car re-sprayed with a white pearl and maybe a blue flake thru the top coat so it will be even more unique. Cant wait, i've just gotta wait a couple of weeks before i actually decide if i'm gonna deffo do it, but at this point i will hehe.

If you know anyone with a set of 34 headlights, let us know. Thanks
