buy a series two front halfcut ( without motor if you can find one or sell motor) make sure you get all panels, bonnet and bonnet release and rio etc. in reasonable to good condition ( less fixit work before painting)

EDIT: don't forget the headlights..

swap the front guards, bar, bonnet etc. onto you car and then get it all sprayed or have it sprayed prior to fitting its up to you.

then hey presto series two conversion :P

you could go the whole hog and replace your dash aswell to get the dual airbags and all the seats and interior trim if you wanted but then you should probably just buy a series two IMO.

Been there done that, you will need:

Bonnet, head lights, front grill, front bar, Reo bar, Fog light wiring kit (unless you have fog lights on your S1)

No need for fenders, S1 and S2 are the same.

What's a 'reo bar'?

Reo = Reinforcement bar its holds up the front bar and is apart of the cars crush zone.

Circled in red.. this one is off a Series one though. The series two is a lot smaller (basically just the top half)

Cheers

    • Swapped the injectors around and the misfire followed. I went ahead and ordered the Deatschwerks 550cc injectors and am currently waiting for them to be ship and arrive. In the meantime, I've had my Nistune soldered to the ECU. Tested it, and and tried it out with the software. Everything should be prepared for when the injectors arrive.  
    • Yeah they charge a little extra for mods , last year I noted no mods but I did have an exhaust fitted after that so  better to let them know cause these kinds of things can cause the policy to be void if you ever need to claim.
    • Hello, just just bought an 1999 enr34 with a stock rb25neo and I'm looking to upgrade the engine to 500whp I know some basic things but wondering if there are things I'll need to do to upgrade the stock block and all the bits and pieces to achieve this.
    • Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions. Got the seats out (hoping I could find some existing grommets but no such luck). By tapping and measuring etc. I could figure out where I could drill through if needed. But first I borrowed an inspection camera and managed to go through factory holes in the chassis rail and could see that the captive nut was holding steady which is why it could retighten. So it was indeed a stripped section of thread, so I applied downforce by levering the bolt head with a screwdriver and went slowly back and forth until it came out. Camera helped a lot cos I could monitor that the captive nut was holding tight. Now I just have one very seized main subframe nut to tackle 😅
    • BOVs do have a purpose, if you ever log pressure before and after the throttle body, you will see a spike pre throttle on lift off from a WOT condition. Enough to bend throttle blades / damage e-throttle motors or simple assist in blowing off cooler pipes. FWIW, the above on really applies to those running at least 2 bar of boost. OP shouldn't have an issue, on the other hand, here are some videos of my shit box over a decade ago with some succulent dose with the airbox on and off. That shit box is unrecognisable these days 🫠
