secondly will i have to buy a new front end reinforcment bar?? or can i use my current one??

Hi

Im getting sick of the series 1 skyline so i want to convert it to series 2... SIFFFFFF

I'm looking for a white r33 series 2 rear spoiler, r33 white series 2 front bar and r33 series 2 white rear boot garnish..

I just have a few questions firstlyy

will a series 2 garnish fit on a series 1?? or should i paint my current garnish?? it will fit.

secondly will i have to buy a new front end reinforcment bar?? or can i use my current one?? as far as i know you will as series 1 and 2 are different though i could be wrong

also will the series 2 bar fit with a series 1 bonnet?? or will it not fit or look stupid?? it will fit but id say it will look out of place

is a series 2 bonnet expensive?? depends where you get it

also is it easy to install the front bar?? and will the series 2 spoiler fit the series 1 boot?? front bar is a 2min job if your car is ghetto spec, maybe about 10 mins if you like screws :) spoiler will fit easy.

If anyone has an of these items can you let me knoww might have a white front bar on sunday when i pick my white r33 up :)

or answer any questions please let me knoww :P

Save your money and spend it on the engine or a nice front mount if you haven't got one already...... You'll quickly get sick of a S1 that's trying to be a S2 and may have trouble selling it when the time comes.

S1 > S2 cant be done without bucket loads of cash

front bar is different due to guards being different therfore bonnet is different and then you will need a short list something like

front bar

font guards

new headlights

new bonnet

hinges, latches (maybe)

ohh ok

cheers everyone for the feedbackk..

so would anyone recommened coverting the rear of the car to s2??

so just the s2 spoiler and s2 garnish..??

is anything else different??

cheers

Pretty sure series 2 coilpacks are cheaper and easy to come by then series 1 as the series 2 relies on the ecu not an ignition module

arent s1 coilpacks cheaper coz u can use rb20 coilpacks and there all individual so u can replace them individually. whereas s2 are grouped or something? i think sum1 told me that correct me if i am wrong

there's no real difference between s1 and s2 engines! practically the same but the coil packs and turbo.

just get a s2 if you're not happy with the s1, i don't see the point in spending all this money and effort in making what you got to something that is already available

same price

and i would say not as easy to come by i can use coil packs from

S1 Rb25

all R32 GTR's

all R33 GTR

s2 engines can only use S2 engined coils :D

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
