RSVFOURUK Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 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 ) 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 .

GoldZilla Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 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.

zei20l Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 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 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/285248-can-you-put-the-m35-front-on-a-series-one-stagea/#findComment-4790948 Share on other sites More sharing options...
