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

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
