370Z Front On An R33

[shaunus]

the 370z isn't even a good looking car as it stands...then you want to put that front on a car that is 15+ years older. The stock 33 front looks better than that haha. Spend your money on something that you can actually benefit from...Power/handling mods or a house deposit.

are you high?

the 370z is a fantastically beautiful car.

was bored so i photoshoped it to show you what it may / could look like...

personally.. it does not suit.. nor will it be cheap..

TBH i actually don't mind that at all... IF you could pull it off. Would be a pain to do.

No, I'm not high. Each to their own. My neighbour has one. For the $$$ he paid there is a big list of cars I would purchase before one of those. They are nothing special and they are tiny.

and they are tiny.

Have you ever even driven one?

250KW stock in a car that weighs 1400kg RWD. Amazing fun to drive.

Haven't driven it but have been in it numerous times. As I said above, each to their own. I'm not convinced and probably never will be. Aesthetically they are not for me

yer im in the process of paying my house of and yer I actually like the way that the 370z front looks on the R33 no spoiler and some fatter skirts I reckin would look sik even wide rear guards.

Dunno what the Quote was about lol but yer even I guess R35 GTR front on there would look nice but u need to continue the fatness around the car lol I lie the look and yer the 370z front would be cheaper to acquire then the GTR 35 if someone can mod that pic with some fatter rears and side skirts and get rid of the whale tail see how it looks then.

So are you going to do it? Have you measured up both cars? What are the roadworthy and engineering requirements for something like this?

[HYBRID VL]

ohh hey man yer looks better nice mate nope I havnet asked an engineer or anything yet is there anything I need to know im guessing if it isn't really modifying the chasis or actually structure and all things like lighst and stuff still work im guessing it cant be that much of a problem maybe bonnet and stuff like that I dunno.

But hey all things like intercoolers and boost controllers aftermarket ECu's and neons and all that have a warning saying For off road use only so even with an engineers cert they can still defect you go check it out.

Im guessing a lot of stuff will need to either be welded or fibreglassed up moulds aswell so I cant see things like bonnets and bumpers being structully sound compared to stock standard items.

I havnet measured it up either so I have no idea if it will fit.

Please go and make a ve fronted vl Monaro with a fully worked, cop chipped Buick 3.8, then you can sell it for $25,000 because it would cost someone else more to build one than buy yours

[Artic Choc]

couple of questions you have to ask are:

will you be using an r33 gtst or an r33 gtr (ovibous reasons being ones wider but more expensive)
how much will it be to source a 370z front cut/rolling body vs getting fibreglass made panels
what engine do you want to run (please say rb26)
and last have you looked around for a well respected panel shop thats capable of pulling of such a task

but youd be looking at more then what you could build a very quick gtr with to pull this off, and at the end of the day.. doing a conversion like this youd want some sort of modified engine to go into it to walk the walk

but go for it

[HYBRID VL]

well to be honest I wouldn't use a GTR id keep it RWD do a lil drifting in it and il leave the RB series motor in for now this case a Rb25DET maybe later down the track go to a VG30DETT so the engine is in a better position for chasis balnce but that's just my thoughts might even leave the RB25 in there and rebuild an Rb30 block and put that in with the RB25 head.

I dunno this is all an idea atm I know its gunna cost abit to get stuff done but those the breaks if you want something I love the stupid comments too thanks its all good il add to your posts done guys np.
