So I have seen 2 stagea's with R34 fronts on them here in Brisbane, a silver one and a yellow one.

Noob question, how involved is this?

I think it looks shit hot and wouldnt mind doing it, but atm $1 is out of my price range.

I know they are out there, but how much of a hassle is it? How legal is it, do you need a mod plate?

I absolutely love them. There are a few that have crept into the country.

On that particular one above, I don't like the gab between the front of the bonnet and the grill. Not that that would stop me from owning one :D

Definately good. Seeing as you own a stagea, im asuming that you are contemplating this front end conversion. What you will find if you havent searched already is that sourcing that masa kit + postage is going to be a pain in the ass. Since its a prefrabricated kit there shouldnt be any hassles in terms of converting it. The lagalities of a 34 front end on a stagea i doubt will be legal but as there are many front end swaps done already ie sil80/onevia and the likes, i doubt you will have any problems with the authorities.

from memory the kit from masa is panels only and you will still need to source things such as the r34 gtr radiator support and headlights to take this into account when you start on this path

also i recall that someone in wa mentioned that here in wa it is illegal to fit plastic front guards as they dont meet adr's for crash requirements

i love the look of the front but i think cost and insurance would be a big factor for me also legality for insurance reasons

Hmmmmmm that is a lot of money just for that look, cant justify it for about 5 years I reckon, yes I will be whipped sometime soon ;).

But yeah cool thanks for the info, still looks damn nice dont it :P

Oh also was pointed ou tthe the rear guards would look better if they were flared, as from the perspective of the camera that took those photo's it looks like the rear is not as wide as the front, as the gtr panels really fflare out, but still, I like it!

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
