well i sold my r31 last week

so i was down a fun car

so after a few vb's a cunning plan was unleashed to the world

im a 31 man and i must say s13 are really camp... so i had to do something about it buy injecting some r31 love into the s13

ill update this as it goes with helpfully tips for the little dooers out there

anyway the plan

stage one

1992 s13 sr20de auto silvia (check the miss's was away for a week so she didnt mind me floogging her car)

stage two

drop a running rb30e into the silvia and rip some burnouts

stage 3

drop a gtr head onto the old girl and some f**k off 350 hp high mount tiwns

time frame is about one month so heres hoping it all goes well

runing progresss 10/4/06

stage two

picked up a manual conversion for a s13

this one dropped in no dramas

quick rundown of the parts

r32 gts crossmember

r31 rb30e engine

rb20 sump

rb30 power steering pump

r32 gtr radiator

gtr clutch

two thermo fans

modified bonnet

basically the engine is in and running

this week we will plumb it up and add a surge tank for stage three

the engine does stick out of the bonnet a fair bit but this shouldnt be an issue when the gtr head is on

sorry only got a few picks

im hoping it rips a mean skid

I like it... Find the biggest capacity nissan 6, then turbocharge it, then put it into the lighest chassis possible. :thumbsup: should be a lot of fun and tail happy.

Hope the weight balance is OK.

you are a champion for inventing such a car...

Wasnt some dude in NZ doing that same thing?

Either way, you are my hero, I love you. Please keep things updated. Might be handy when I sometime get the money and time to get one in the cef.

weight is fine

ill be taking it to the sau circuit day and thrashing it hard to get a feel for the handelling

just need to tee up some shocks

currently has kyb ones with stock springs (lol the suspension level raised with the new engine... work that shit out)

if you could ever get that car to hook up and go you would have a supra/bike killer on your hands...

awesome work, rb swaps into s chassis cars are loads of fun.

also check out www.lsauto.com for a drop in tach that reads the 6cyl signal or grab a r32 gauge cluster and with a touch of trimming the r32 tacho fits into the s13 cluster.

as for the front end being a touch higher after the swap you are spot on, you now have more weight behind the xmember than before so its gonna lift a bit, i noticed that too when i did my rb20 swap into my s14, works a treat and improves handling a bit.

what a piece of shit. doesnt look like a 31 at all. still a girls car you shirt lifter.

RB30e is a sweet motor though, definatley the best thing about the car (well the bonnet scoop is pretty good too). So refined and powerfull and it just looks so sexy sitting there. hopefully it will chirp the odd second too.

go bananaman.

:)

banaman has been nothing but trouble for you pete. he is a bad influence no doubt about it. ever since he rode into town in his 31 wagon things have gone downhill.

Fatz, you are my hero... keep up the good work, im hanging out to see some updates on power delivery/traction/handling when its all sorted, just be sure to go to a sperm bank and save some 'genetic material, cos I think your lovely girl will probably relieve you of your balls, and I want to clone you :D

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
