I think its worthwhile, the Soarer front on the Supra. I mean the soarer front is gorgeous in 97+ mode, and the fat ass of the supra is what the z30 misses. I think some widebody front is in order to make the hips match the tits.

Too bad the supras interior looks like someone vomited up an ST205 celica. Maybe squeeze in a Z30 dash and console?

In fact, this would be the only 'front end swap' I'd ever say looked good :-)

I've got a spare soarer guard hanging around, I'll see what I can do :-)

The shape / guard profiles are very different due to the soarer ridge and the supra's doors are somewhat concave.

Not an easy swap by all means.

I wonder if the whole front end, strut towers / chassis rails and skirts can be welded on...

Just adding to this revised thread ..

I must admit the Soarer front on the Supra looks pretty good, but you would want to use a 97 onwards front as in my eyes it looks a lot nicer & I'm sure its far from being straight forward as for starters the Supra appears to be a lot wider car ..

Just wondering if that's an actual car or one that has been photo chopped or shopped or whatever they call it

I think they have all been photoshopped. The Nissan guys do this sort of caper a lot. I am intrigued enough to want to try this one day. Maybe on the race car, so it would be Supra panels on the front of a Soarer.

I would need to win the lottery though, as I don't have enough time or money to do the things that actually will make the car faster, let alone stuff for looks or internet infamy.
