Sam@TMBMW 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2011 Gotta say that looks LOADS better than the E46 front ended E36's you see. Replace the lights with some real units, tweek a few things to bring it all into proportion and you're away. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cliffdunedin 8 Report post Posted July 28, 2011 I think it looks more like a Holden from the front, esp the grill!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know much about frontal impact stuff but I Was just thinking about what they would have done to the front of it then I saw your post, glad someone else was thinking it just a racecar shell now really isin't it??

It all depends on how it has been done. If its done like the Nissan conversions (customer guards, standard bonnet and front bumper) I don't see how it could break any front impact laws. Once you start cutting and welding then you would run into some issues. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CORNER 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2011 and the answer to "hybrid"about"Will just be cost recovery after they realised what frontal impact laws theyve broken. " thats just this car didnt hit any laws aboutfrontal impact,because all i cut just corner of radiator mount,which is can be straight bolts off form the frame,even the factory bumper holder still on the car. here the photo which without bumper been sent photo to wellington which the base of l.v.v cert.and been told no need to worry about the body work,but the mags just seen too wide maybe need somebody to imspect.

Lucan 196 Report post Posted August 3, 2011 Welcome. I do remember your friends GTR rep being on here at some point. You've actually put a sh**load of work into this car. Once its complete (Interior and Engine) I'm sure you'll never part with it. Maybe make your own build thread though? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
