Yes, the engine I am looking at is the non vct out of a R32, cheers for that response let me know how the swap goes

Alright, thanks for your help mate

Are the looms for the RB20DET and the RB25DE Non VCT the same?

Hey Guys, I have been reading through threads about this but non are really specific to the RB25DE NON VCT. I would like to know if an RB20DET ECU will run an RB25 non vct and are the looms the same? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Aaron

If you only have the engine post it up!

Looking again!

best non turbo setup I have seen period, good for my RB26/30 conversion GL with the sale mate

I am chasing an R32 to be a potential home for my RB26/30 once I have finished it. However, rather than waiting until the end of the build and have my engine sitting around for months, I would like to purchase an R32 now so I can work on the Body/Chassis while building my engine. So, I have up for sale my current car (you can see it via this link http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/362895-1994-ford-fairlane-nc/page__p__5791628__fromsearch__1#entry5791628) and if anyone is interested in swaps I am keen to have a look at what you have to offer. if not, just let me know if you are selling anyway because I may also get the money from the sale of my car. Cheers, Aaron

Hahaha touche, However, I have my eyes set on a 32 for the time being but who know's the engine may have several homes in the future Cheers

Item Summary: 1994 FORD FAIRLANE NC, Tasteful modifications, cruiser with oomph Location: QLD: Brisbane Postcode: 4128 Odometre: 23X,XXX kilometres Asking Price: $1 Condition: Used Reason for Selling: Looking for an R32 Delivery Methods: PickUp Contact Info: PM or MOBILE 0433 444 854 Extra Information: Throwing up the old girl for interest, don't need to sell her just thought I would throw her up. I am chasing an R32 to be a potential home for my RB26/30 once I have finished it, however at the moment I have a 1994 ford fairlane that is in perfect running condition with a full exhaust, pedders sports ryder suspension, ROH wheels, good condition paint and body (besides to panels which I can fix), I have changed the lighting in the dash to red and white to match the car a little better, I have put an LTD bonnet on it, I have also put a shift kit in it, AUTO by the way, CFC Free air-con, Leather Steering wheel (LTD), I have made a custom 12" subwoofer box for it I am finishing soon and I have decked out the car with $400 worth of wiring for a massive stereo with a second battery in the back. Couple of more things. I am the third owner, the first were an old couple and the second, a young Chinese lad, so it hasn't been thrashed. It is quite reliable and has all the things that usually fault over the years (fuel pump, throttle cable, intake manifold gasket, coil, battery) replaced. It is comfy and is a good car to go from A to B that can be a bit noisy if you are in the mood. I also have the NA fairlane factory manual (RARE) that has everything the NC has to be honest just a couple of tasteful differences that the NC has over the NA. I have a revs check with it, and ever since the day I have bought it, it has run on V-Power. Finally, I have just done a service on it roughly 2,500 km ago. I also have a chiptorque chip waiting in bubble wrap. I will be doing some more modifications to the car soon if I have no interest in the near future. Shoot me a text or PM if you are interested or you have an R32 you would like to swap. Cheers, Aaron

Wew, just what I need

Ofcourse there are some things I forgot to mention intially

Thanks mate and on that note, I have purchased the RB26DETT Head for the build, I cannot wait for it to arrive, I am going to get it sent for crack testing ASAP so I can start thinking about saving for the headwork.

No worries we will see when it is completed haha. Cheers for that jangles, and don't worry I have plenty of confidence in the guys I am entrusting with my build. This week I think I may have a chat with Clay to sort out and finalise the turbo selection and dimensions of my plumbing.

That much I do know as I have been brought up in the drag pits since I was 6 years of age and I have seen my fair share of wicked Blown V8's and Methanol guzzlers. Thing is I don't want a V8 in an old cheap car, I want a skyline with an RB26/30 because I love the combination of torque, power, comfort and style of the R33 Skyline with an RB26/30. Different applications call for different budgets. Connections and simple know how can bring down the price while keeping the build legit. I know I won't build it for under $15,000 but I am not phased by it at all. By all means thank you, but I just want to say once again I am not building it for a cheap/legit/quick car because it isn't really possible, but I am building it because I want to. It is like saying you can buy an orange because it is cheaper than an apple because they are both fruit but thing is, I want an apple. I have thought about other shells such as 350z's (pipe dreams) but it is all to much stuffing around to get it to fit.

I have my eyes set on it going into an R33 Series 2 but there is the thought of an r32, only time will tell

UPDATE Fair enough in regards the the comments about the twins, I will look into it but I have partnered up with CCC engine building in Yatala, run by a man by the name Clay. He builds rotaries but has a vast history with rb26/30's. I am getting my intercooler, plumbing, custom exhaust manifold by him (with close ties with PWR). I am also going to discuss turbo choices with him and I am fairly confident he will bring up twin's or single and which would be better for what I am looking to achieve. Also, I have placed a deposit on an RB26DETT Crack tested and Guaranteed head from down south and I am placing the balancing payment in next week so I will be getting my head soon, very excited. That is all for now, Aaron

Nah mate, I would rather just get a single as I can achieve what I want with the single. Perhaps in the future on another build but I have seen some pretty stupid quick skylines with singles take JUN and ENVY for example. stupid power and acceleration.

That is quite a story you have there mate I am gunning straight for the RB26/30 with the necessary bottom end to withstand the 600rwhp I will be pumping into it with my head that will be configured (ported, polished, camshafts, valve springs, valves etc.) to that power figure with a turbo that will do the job nicely. Along with the necessary driveline modifications to withstand my insane torque value I am aiming for. Aaron

enough said

$50,000 to build a streeter? slight exageration, I know of 8 second super sedan's that are built for less than that or there abouts. I know it will be expensive however, patience is a virtue and the added passion for projects such as this makes me more keen to get started. Also it is a learning experience, I am sure you learnt a lot building you r33. Just want to let everyone know I am aware of what I am getting myself into. Thanks, Aaron

My engine will consist of similar parts and work, but I want to start from scratch make my own engine and car. Aaron

All I am doing different is running a stroker so I can push more torque out and I will probably end up running standard valves. I don't want a huge turbo because it is going to be a streeter so I willbe getting a turbo that will spool up quickly and is rated up to around 600hp, hence I have chosen the Garrett GT35R. Different applications call for different modifications, thank you for the feedback. Aaron

Holy Shit! That is a little hard to believe. How big is your turbo? and what Camshafts are you running?

Yes, good call. As I said, I do want a torque monster so bigger capacity producing a bigger throw = more torque with a lower angular velocity is the I was going however, the Nitto setup from what I have read, has more research and knowledge placed into it when it was engineered because Nitto has been around longer and I would imaginge have a bigger budget to work with and so that is why I was taking a step back. However, I am not taking anything away from SPOOL I think he has done a great job and only time will tell with more statistics and research whether or not I want to go for the RB34 or RB32. For now I am focusing on the head so perhaps in 6 months time I will have made my decision. Thanks for all the feedback, I would love to see more followers Aaron
