Just wondering if anyone has done the r34 front end conversion as i would like to do it to mine. Does it simply just bolt on or is it alot of stuffing round? and which front end works and looks better r34gtr or just r34?. any help on this would be good. O and how much would i be looking at, at a guess 4 an r34 front?

I bought mine the way it is but looking at it, as long as you can get the fenders, it doesn't look too hard. There's some cutting on the radiator support that has to happen and spacers need to be made for the aftermarket fenders (don't know why they didn't just make them fit correctly). When I bought mine nothing lined up correctly so I've had all of it apart and readjusted/modified stuff to make it all fit right. Looks like stock hood latch works (I just had to slot the mounting holes to line up better). You can use stock R34 hood and bumper, and you'll need a hood rod (probably be able to use gas shocks but they fail eventually anyway). My headlights don't quite line up properly with the rad. support but that just means I can buy cheaper ones with the upper mounting tangs broke off that nobody wants because I don't use those tangs.

I think it's more a case of how expensive the project is - i've heard these can be a not-so-cheap exercise but i'm sure if you hunt around on Yahoo Japan and play your cards right you'll get off fairly lightly.

Idea: Anyone ever done an WGNC34>BCNR33 nose job?

      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.

      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?
