Help With A R33 Custom Front Reo Build

[knightswrath]

Need a few ideas for a front reo build on a 33.

Pics would be highly appreciated. Race intercooler needs mounting properly

I have done my 32 gtst.

Not a 33 but, might give you some ideas:

Fitting it into the GTR style front bar and on the bench:

Test fit and final fit, with chassis extension brackets:

Intercooler brackets on top, and pipes only just clear at the bottom:

The road scraper is the best, it protects the front bar from bottoming out, and its strong enough to support the front of the car:

Its heavy, so its not racecar stuff. Its for the street.

If you do a search you might find a link to another forum, i think a silvia forum, with some real racecar front ends.

Thats a pretty damn good job. Would love to do something similar, but its just not high on the priority list lol

Haha! thanks, i spose it looks good in the photos.

But i wish i had a metal drop saw to make nice straight cuts, and my welding is not real good.

Also, straight cuts means its easier to weld nice, cos theres no gaps.

Maybe alloy would be good for some people, as it would be much lighter, and do the job of holding things together.
