Nope - the headlight is a completely different shape, as is the bonnet :)

I am 99.9% sure the only way to interchange them is to swap Guards, Bonnet, Front bar, Grill, Headlights, High beam lights, indicators/fog lights and front bar reo all at once.

LOL

we have an old member who went to the dark side of the force (Alex and his evo) who went down this path a couple of years ago. Pretty sure he was the first in Aus to do it, and the results were quite good.

He did kinda lose most of his front end in an accident tho IIRC

yeah his car was reversed into by a truck if my memory serves me and used the opportunity to convert to series 2 face

the guards are completely different so you'll need to track down an s2 panel to replace yours. complete front ends are easy to interchange - much the same as s13 silvia and 180sx fronts can simply be swapped over (same chassis)

No, alex rolled the car after going far too hot into a corner

went off road and rolled a little

he then did a S2 conversion to his S1, to make it the first official S1.5 in Australia, LOL

was a good job, took time tho of course

Nick, Id suggest getting onto wreckers for a replacement panel, or local quotes to fix that one up (via a re-skin)

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

      Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust

      Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
