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.

      Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points?

      I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.

      Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?

      So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
