I have a R33 gtst and was wanting to put a GTR front end on it, bonnet, front guards and front bar.

will they bolt on?

from what ive read through a quick search i will have to change my head lights to GTR aswell?

has anyone done this before? am i wasting my time? is it too hard etc? should i just put a GTR front bar on and be done with it?

any help would be great

cheers!

Bonnet, gaurds, front bar, grill, bonnet latch and front bumper reo. That's what I can think of off the top of my head. Probably missed something. Headlights are the same unless you have a S2 GTST.

If you can get the parts cheap than it is fairly easy and straight forward to do. Just looks a bit weird with having pumped front gaurds without the rear.

hmm i have a series 2 R33 gtst.

so im guessing the gtr bonnet wont fit without the guards and lights being changed?

can i just fit the front bar? without changing anything else?

I don't belive so, the lights are a different shape

The series 2 looks good stock

I had a series 1 and someone had put a GTR style front on it before I bought it. I can see why cause a stock series 1 is ugly and looks like an old man car, but a series 2 looks good the way it is

hmm i have a series 2 R33 gtst.

so im guessing the gtr bonnet wont fit without the guards and lights being changed?

can i just fit the front bar? without changing anything else?

Why not just get a GTR style front bar to suit a S2 GTST?

yeah that was the plan but just wanted to see how hard the whole front end change would be first as ive seen gtr guards, front bars and bonnets etc for sale here.

thanks for the info guys!!

To many in this thread,

There is a search function on SAU for a reason.

Yo, man. Ever wonder why I bumped a 6 month thread? Perhaps, SAU search didn't find @#$% and Google told me to come here. Do you have links to those 'many' threads?

Hey mate,

I'm not reffering to you, the r33 conversion has been done many times an is documented.

In response to your question, you need fenders, bonnet, bumper, maybe gtr reo an latch, headlights u can use gtst ones I'm pretty sure

So many asking bout r33 stuff clearly havnt bothered to search, poor form

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
