Looking great Brycey

Gives me some motovation to finish mine now.

When you get it home, take some more photo's please.

Bonnet hinges, headlight mounts, inside of front guards over the strut towers

Can notice the extra work CCubed have put into the front guards.

Are you fitting the factory rubber between the bonnet and front bar?

Looks absolutely incredible in yellow :P

Also whilst on the topic of Stagea front end conversions, has an R33 front ever been transplanted onto a stag?

I have only ever seen R34 front swaps in pics and am curious to see what it would look like. Plus it would be an even rarer combo than the R34Stagea.

Wow these GTR front end conversions always look stunning! its a shame they didn't release an actual R34 type Wagon would have been the sh1t!

Nice one brycey

R33Stagea would be interesting...

If someone were to do it though in theory it should work out cheaper than sourcing r34 parts wouldn't it? r33's are far more common.

Although on the other hand there isn't going to be any premade stagea to r33 guards and you'd need to get a lot of stuff fabricated.

cheers guys :D here are some more pictures.. i plan to take some good ones when the sun comes out

darrin - ill get some more for you. i would like to fit the factory rubber but my bar didnt come with one :thumbsup:

rubba - there has been some talk about a R33 GTR front end, but like you mentioned it will require a fair bit of development..

cheers mate :thumbsup: the skirts and rear bar are Takeros products, but the side skirts have been modified at the front to match up to the R34 front (previously it had a "kick-out” at the front bottom, identical to the rear to match the previous front bar). the repair and modifying work was also done by CCubed :D

did they come with the car or u source these seperately? any idea on pricing? I have the nismo skirts and rear bar and wondering if they are gonna suit the 34 front or not :thumbsup: I will modify them if they have to be, but other parts are always an option

yeah mate the kit came with the car, attached is a picture of it in japan

the nismo kit should match up pretty well as the skirts are fairly flat (from memory) but modifying them is usually not a problem :thumbsup:

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
