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....

    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
