Found this pic while looking at rims. Can anybody identify that front? It looks really weird.

Maybe I'm wrong but that looks like a Skyline front to me. R32, or something... I don't remember. =P

I agree, should be a SKYLINE.

Definately a Skyline.  I thought about swapping headlamps and center grill to those but not sure of the modifications needed and didn't want to start something I can't finish or afford.  Still really nice though.

DSC I'm a little disappointed in you <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>. You don't know what car that was? hmmm... you need to get it together man.

R33 front. Obvious photoshop.

That's not photoshopped or anything... that's just a regular R33 Skyline... and not a S14 with R33 front. Just check out the placement of the rearwheels, it's a little more to the back than the rearwheels on an S14. And shape of the rearbumper is different too, amongst other differences.

Whaddya guys sayin' is photochopped?  You guys do know that the R33 and the S14 share side view mirrors right? :biggrin:  If you have an S14 you can brag..."I've got R33 mirrors!" HEHE

I have seen 5 skylines but none of them were R33's(one R34)

My wife is japanese and I've been to Japan regularly for the past 3 years and have had the opportunity to try a number of cars there, among them the R33. Great machine!  BTW thats how i came to respect the S13 so much as they are legendary there amongst the drift crowd.
