Hi,

I have a white R33 Spec 1 RB20e. I have sourced a spec 2 bumper for it in white.

I have a picture of a Spec 1 with a Spec 2 front bumper and I know the headlights of a Spec 1 will sit out a bit over the Spec 2 bonnet - I dont mind this.

However, what I need to know is will the Spec 2 bumper go straight onto the Spec 1 car - ie. how will I mount it

and the other thing is - will the loom thats present on my car for the Spec 1 bumper, match up with the front indicators/spots on the Spec 2 bumper.

Thanks a million

Daz

The Spec 2 front bar will fit on a Spec 1. The headlights will stick out over the front bar slightly.

If you have a Spec 1 reinforcement bar (reo), it will not "Bolt on" the indicator/foglight assembly will foul on the reo.

You will need to modify the reo or source a Spec 2 Reo.

and the other thing is - will the loom thats present on my car for the Spec 1 bumper, match up with the front indicators/spots on the Spec 2 bumper.

I cant remember if it was a direct plug in.. I think the indicators will. My Spec 1 did not have a factory fog light so I bought a Generic kit from autobarn.

Thanks for the reply J.

Yeah, I have a Spec 1 reinforcemant bar. Do you know what sort of work would have to be done to the reinforcemant bar to enable me too fit the bumper on and how would I go about bolting it on to the car?

Im not very good with working with bodywork.

I think my loom has the wiring for the spots and the indicators.well I hope so :)

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
