S15 Front End On Cefiro ?

Any front end will go on, but it most definitely won't be a straight swap. That is only possible on S13 silvia/180sx because they have the same chassis and doors.

You will need conversion guards, but I doubt anyone makes them, so you'll need to cut up both pairs of guards and join the S15 guards to the cefiro guards. You'll need custom headlight mounting brackets. Don't know if the S15 front bumper reo fits on the cef or not, might need to cut and weld the S15 reo to the cefiro one to fit it. Bonnet, if you are lucky it will fit, otherwise you might need to do something there (like get a fibreglass one and make it longer?)

It's not like this kind of thing hasn't been done before, (think sky-firo, 180-line, s15-80, cef-line), but is going to depend alot on your patience and wallet

BAHAHAHAH sorry, but yeah not even a chance.

The parts that they share with silvias (S13) refers to things like,

front end: shocks, hubs, uprights (hub carrier), brakes, strut brace, control arms, castor arms

rear end: diff, driveshafts, suspension, hubs, uprights, camber/toe/traction arms.

Parts that are shared with skyline, engine and gearbox (slight differences), rear brakes and handbrake, seats.

When it comes to body panels, only thing that comes close to fitting is the laurel, (think laurfiro). Essentially the laurel is the same as a cefiro, except they have a different body shell. But unlike the s13 silvia/180sx, the doors are not the same so you have problems getting the laurel guards to line up with the cefiro doors (they rub and the body lines don't match).

R32 front end?

Dont the ceffie and 32 share the same chassis

Cef's don't have the same chassis as anything except for laurels. There are similarities in certain parts, but like I said before you'll need conversion guards, custom head light mounts among other things.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I used to have Walbro 255's when they were a pretty common update. (or were they 044? 040?) In any case I had a dirty tank. I thought the tank was good, but I would find the filter would clog in maybe ~50km of driving. If the issue persists, well, your fuel system or tank has crap in it that the pump is sucking up.

      Hi. Ok thanks for the info. I/we do not know what tune is on that Nistune ECU so it is why there is stock ECU and that Nistune is for later when the car is done. I have guy who tunes Nistune and other ECU so i will then take it to him to see and properly tune for the car   And for the update. On 99,9% it is bad fuel pump. Which is wierd cuz it is like 2 years old(brand new walbro 255) and that filter (also brand new) was dirty.  I was alwaya pumped premium(100) on very good petrol station so i dont know how is that possible...

      Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.

      So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here
