Gday guys

I have a few questions bout r32s

in particular how hard is a rb20det swap into a na r32. will it just plug straight up to the standard loom or am i gonna have to buy a det loom to go with the engine?

are the handbrake cable setups any different between turbo and non turbo?

does the r32 turbo dash have any differences in comparison to the non turbo? ie boost guage in the dash cluster ect.

any help is appreciated guys

Do the smart thing and go straight to the RB25 or even an RB30 if you have the money. unless you have an RB20 already then sure it's the best option

Only my 2c anyways :)

I Think he was very specific with saying a rb20 ,

The Complyer isnt going to like finding a rb30/25 in there, and i rather not see the car writen off in compliance , :P

So your 2c is noted and dissmissed.

I would say ( speaking off the top of my head so to speak) that the swap would be easy as long as the NA body has the holes there for cooler, if your going to use a stock set up.

The loom might be a little different, you got a AFM on both cars, oil pressure gauge/sender on the turbo model (not sure if the NA;s have a oil pressure gauge) as well as the boost gauge, as for engine I would say that the differance would be minimal & there are people out there who could do the few sensors for a minimal fee.

I would just go with the NA Dash & run a dash mount boost gauge in a cup...

Just a idea correct me if I am wrong....

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
