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

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
