hey guys I been looking at different things with my r33 and I relized all spoilers look shit on an R33 flat back is best and then I looked at the front and thought hmmm a nice twin round headlight conversion would look nice and then it got me thinking ive seen cefiro and R32 R34 fronts on an R33 but what about a 370z front end I reckin it wouldn't look too bed aye.

its a fat car like the R33 is really no other skyline has the fatty dynamics like the whale body r33 wide front gaurds with the lighst going up I reckin would look kick ass.

what you guys think cant find anything on the net yets still looking so either it looks shit or im 1st to think about it lol.

yer I know unique usally mean ugly but I dunno somthin about it makes me want to try it out I mean would look good as a drift car and honestly that pic makes me want to do it even more lol

id think of buying a damn 370z or even Q35 skyline non gtr But the thought of non RB non turbo just kills it.

V6 I can cope with but damn Non Turbo and non Hot plate lights whhyyy Nissan.

Yer I asked a engineer about that he said that the size of the motor is np even an RB30 though the age of the motor compared to the age of the car it cannot legally be done.

Something about pollution standards this is why 13B rotaries aren't slotted into RX8 this is what he said this is only from one engineer that is a mates mate I havnet asked anyone else about it.

I also like the 3500cc compared to even a 2600cc even though the RB26DETT has a heap more power.

What is the engine like with a turbo or 2 strapped to the sides and what about the manual boxes in the Q35's will they handle the added HP of a turbo same as engine?

Any engine with a turbo strapped to the side is the same as before, just now there is a turbo strapped to it.

Rather than going to the trouble of strapping it to the side for no real gain, a turbo conversion would be more useful and no straps required.

Ok look il take the negative comments and all that and stupidity intwined with this project I was asking about but don't insult my intelligence with your smartass comments so much you needed to post twice I was simply asking if you don't ask you don't know.

your last comment is kinda redundant as your contradicting yourself as saying a turbo conversion as what its the same as before what you mean just no plumbing and ECu and all that aswell do I have to write all that in aswell meaning

turboing the NA motor that is in the Q35 do you mean swap the motor out for a V6 twin turbo motor from say an R35 GTR as they are my simplest options im guessing not as cheap as I would expect but that's what I would do if I was to get a Q35?

Don't just jump in enlighten me please.

    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
