Hi

I am thinking of doing something different to my 32 I am going to get some new mags for it (which isn’t really that different). I also been thinking about changing the front end to a R34 front end as a mate sent me a pic of a 32 with a 34 front end on it and I thought it looked sweet as and very tough. And he said it isn’t very hard to do just bolt on but I don’t know. My brother changed the front end on his EXA to a ET front end and that was piece of cake. But yeah I am looking for a price (approximately) to do a mod like this.

Cheers Adrian

even if u used the panels etc your still looking at a lot of money... plus, then lines wont line up properly from the guards to the doors so ur going to have to fix that... not to mention the massive front end and skinny rear.

The Bee R kit (front end only) will cost $3500 in Japan + Shipping, Duties and Taxes. But it ONLY comes with the Front Guards, Bonnet and Bumper. No Lights, bumper reo's, radiator supports, headlight brackets etc... which you will more than likely need.

so roughly $5,200 landed ready to sell

R34 Panels and so forth wont be cheap either and as others have said, you will have to modify them to fit the lines of the R32 around the door etc...

Headlights alone cost $590 each for non-Xenon's

I would contact Sam @ G&S Bodyworks about doing the conversion as he has done an R34 front end on a Toyota Soarer recently. 02 9681 2686

they aren't TE37s. they are Bee-R rims. also they are 5 spokes TE's are 6 spoke. personally i prefer the five spokes over 6. nice to have an un-even number of spokes i reckon.

hey "SW20-GT" and "darK" thanks that was just what i was after, those were the pics that got me keen on doing this mod hmmm i may b able to make this happen but thinking there could be better things i could spend the money on all though this would still be really awesome to do. R34 front end on a Toyota Soarer dam that would have cost a sh!t load i think that me and my dad would be able to do the labour for the swap of panels and sh!t. But yeh cheers for the prices just what i need to get my brain really thinking

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
