Has anyone considered this or done it.

You may well ask - why , and thats a good question , but please humour me .

I am looking to do something really different

I suppose "could you fit the R34 front to a m35" is the same question.

This is not "would it bolt straight on" ( I wish :D ) but - are the dimensions close enough to make it possible using the stock or aftermarket panels.

I am not worried about the internal brackets etc. but more the relative heights of the bonnet and wings .

All comments welcome including of any along the lines of ............ mad as a box of frogs

Hmmm, if it is (even remotely) achievable, I'm worried about how it would look - the M35 front looks too round for the C34 rear, in my opinion.

Quite possibly but I was not thinking about using a standard m35 front

if youre not thinking of using a standard front, then yes it will fit as all the parts will be custom made.

but if you want to use factory parts on your C34, then i think youre going to have major problems. the front ends arent even remotely similar. its hard enough attempting a V35 front swap on an M35, let alone trying to get the M35 front on something that doesnt resemble it at all!

pop the bonnet of an M35 and youll understand why

Can someone reminder me what a m35 stagea looks like ;)

Round -> Square. . . .hmmm

Give it a go, should only cost approx $5-8K aust. to see if it looks any good or not.

Photoshop someone. . . . .

why dont you do an R33 front?

thats pretty different

If i do anything its got to be something thats not been done before as I will be replacing a genuine nismo bodykit thats on the car now. That rules out r34 front (and r33)

Pretty much finished the rest of the car only painting left so wanted something off the wall .

shame the r35 wont fit ( in fact that probably shpould be - just as well as bank manager would have a fit :) )

Ceferio front end ?

Legnum Front end ? (because the legnums ass's are horrible to look at)

R33 with 400r front bar ?

anything is possible, you see the tools in the UK making there honda's looks like porche gt3's and there little fiat's to look like Z4's . stupid yes, impossible no!

EDIT: just saw your from the UK. . . .

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
