Been curious about this myself, and would love to hear from those who have done/are doing it.
How much of the R32 kit did you transfer over, and how much did you scratchbuild?

Cph1 was th 1st on Af, stump is the second. Hey, maybe I'll do 1 my self.
Guess what, today I got my SAS body kits, C-west with nismo hood and ITR blitz style kit. If you want me to show pics to prove it I'll do it. :o AH, forget it, it's useless to show pics because you've already seen the products.

I've been looking into it myself for the past few weeks for a resin version for the R34 and R33. The transmission needs to be removed from the block and it can then be fit in place once the molded R34/R33 engine is removed. The R34/R33 sumps can be atthached although they are slightly wider than the R32

Miss my car?
 Tips: -use the R34 chasis, don't bother cutting the R32 out -use the R34 trans and oil sump part -cut the "fake engine" from r34 -notice the R34 transmission, the front top area is missing. Cut the R32 trans and just leave the front top of the transmission so it can fit over the R34 tranny. -trim engine mount vertically (part # B22 on the 24090 kit)of R32 eng so it can fit into the R34 bay -use your imagination Hope this help.

I ended up fully cutting out the fake R34 engine and transmission, as the R32 one fits perfectly to those lines. I also cut the full front end off both the R34 & the R32 Chassis, so I will make the R32 front end (without the body
) and stick it onto the R34 body.There is one problem I found with this method, although it isn't really a big deal, the engine bay for the R32 wont fit perfectly onto the R34 chassis, so I will have to glue the engine bay straight to the inside of the body, and doing it this way means the suspension is slightly lowered. So simply put, I will have a R34 with a R32 engine bay, engine, front suspension and half of the R32 Exhaust pipe. With the R34 Body, Interior, rear suspension wheels and brakes. I will get pics and update my thread ASAP.
