Has anyone considered this or done it.

You may well ask - why , and thats a good question , but please humour me .

I am looking to do something really different

I suppose "could you fit the R34 front to a m35" is the same question.

This is not "would it bolt straight on" ( I wish :D ) but - are the dimensions close enough to make it possible using the stock or aftermarket panels.

I am not worried about the internal brackets etc. but more the relative heights of the bonnet and wings .

All comments welcome including of any along the lines of ............ mad as a box of frogs

Hmmm, if it is (even remotely) achievable, I'm worried about how it would look - the M35 front looks too round for the C34 rear, in my opinion.

Quite possibly but I was not thinking about using a standard m35 front

if youre not thinking of using a standard front, then yes it will fit as all the parts will be custom made.

but if you want to use factory parts on your C34, then i think youre going to have major problems. the front ends arent even remotely similar. its hard enough attempting a V35 front swap on an M35, let alone trying to get the M35 front on something that doesnt resemble it at all!

pop the bonnet of an M35 and youll understand why

Can someone reminder me what a m35 stagea looks like ;)

Round -> Square. . . .hmmm

Give it a go, should only cost approx $5-8K aust. to see if it looks any good or not.

Photoshop someone. . . . .

why dont you do an R33 front?

thats pretty different

If i do anything its got to be something thats not been done before as I will be replacing a genuine nismo bodykit thats on the car now. That rules out r34 front (and r33)

Pretty much finished the rest of the car only painting left so wanted something off the wall .

shame the r35 wont fit ( in fact that probably shpould be - just as well as bank manager would have a fit :) )

just chucking this in there.

Ceferio front end ?

Legnum Front end ? (because the legnums ass's are horrible to look at)

R33 with 400r front bar ?

anything is possible, you see the tools in the UK making there honda's looks like porche gt3's and there little fiat's to look like Z4's . stupid yes, impossible no!

EDIT: just saw your from the UK. . . .

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
