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

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
