what front end conversions work with the 93 q45 and where do i get them. new to vip cars thanks.
What do you want?
I don't think there is really any point to doing it, except for the hood, which i think you could just use a grille adapter anyways.
I'm guessing he wants the newer front end. Like from a 94-95
i think i've seen a F50 Conversion on a 93. I'll see if i can dig more into it. Heres a 1990 with a q45 Conv or atleast what it saiis. [IMG]http://www.j-specimports.ca/list/2749/1.jpg[/IMG]
you can do "Nissan President" front end conversion, which will fit right on to your Q45 chassis, but it is rare and expensive. you need hood fenders headlights grill front bumper and radiator support by the way . . the picture below my post, the first car thats sittin horizontal in black from the bottom on the left. . thats the President front end . .
There is a grill you can get which makes the front look like a kouki G50 (94-96) which one of the forum members has on his Q. One of my friends recently just swapped a stock 94-96 front onto his zenki. It's a straight forward process on either. The JHG50 or PHG50 conversion are far more expensive..especially the PHG50 since the headlights alone are over 2 g's. The cheapest route is the other grill: member RASRX7 [img]http://www.jacobphoto.com/ronprezroll.jpg[/img]

[QUOTE=KickEachVerse;49432]Nissan President FTW.[/QUOTE] Be ready to spend A LOT of $$. I'm in the middle of mine right now. Of course since I'm doing it all kouki it makes it far more expensive. If you went chuki or zenki it might be a lot cheaper. Fenders, hood, & trunk will not be cheap to ship as they are large items. The rest isn't too bad, but again, it all adds up.
some guy quoted me less than $4000 for the frontend shipped from japan right in front to your door . . pm me if anyone interested . . by the way im not making anything out of this . . just to help out everyone here

Still nice though, just not the look I went for.
Saw a UCF30 LS conversion on one...

I can get these parts in anyone ins interested. Here's a Price list of OEM President parts (prices Include shipping to my office in Canada but does no include shipping to you) rad support assy $538.99 hood panel $1391.85 fenders ( no mirrors ) $709.89 each headlamps ( non DOT ) $418.50 each grille $ 379.65 grille surround panel $463.69 bumper cover $778.79 bumper absorber $113.85 bumper marker lamps $25.05 each NOTE: All prices listed are in CAD which brings up a grand total of $5948.65 CAD which is like $5300 USD. That's brand new in box from Nissan. hood hinges, plastic fender liners and rebar are the same as the Q45. you might be able to get away with modifying the original radiator support and no front bumper cover or absorber if you are going after market

modling all the way around the car is different on early vs late model g50. so if you plan on getting a "late face conversion" for your car, whether its from a q45 or president, keep in mind the molding will not match. at this point you could: 1) not care 2) cut/fill old molding in place of the new (front bumper), which affords you a grill and new headlights, when what really makes the difference between early and late model cars is the trim 3) remove/fill/replace old moldings around the car with the late molding OR, ultimately... leave the early design alone and buy a late model car.
