dad lives over here 3 weeks of every month, and he thought it would e good for me to come over for 2 weeks and stay in his apartment for something to do

so here i am :D

yo shane hypotheticly speaking,

if you had an R32 GTST that had an R33rb26 rwd conversion done its matched up to a 25 box and hardwired DLink ecu

Now take a basicly stock R33 GTST and swap the two engines between the cars loom and all - so the 32 had the 25 from the 33 and the 33 had the 26 from the 32

what are the problems/obsticles to overcome in doing this?

reason being my friend is looking at selling his freshly built car and if i can get the cash together he is considering the posibility of an engine swap

(he has decided to wear a skirt and buy a house)

you can ask me i am doing a conversion atm.....

yeah shane would blab on about r33's and rb26's...and 32's and curse each one....maybe.

but yeah as i said above....if you change everything, then just placement of items and radiator etc, and tailshaft, gearbox mount are the only bits i can think of, but then shane may think of something else.....oh you may need to make room for the different style plenum off the 26, fuel lines.....fuel pump, dump pipes...should change straight off the other car.

space wise should be fine as its a big single conversion

at the moment all i can think of is radiator and dump but they should be easy

how do the engine mounts go?

engine mounts are the same...as all the block castings are the same...as with the rb30.

but probably drive shaft...gearbox mount maybe....radiator.....space to do it...every thing else should match up...

what do you mean by driveshaft?

and the gearbox should be fine cause the 32 has a rb25box in it that th 26 is matched up with the clutch has been changed from pull to push or whatever it is

ahh touche.....if they have the same box in them it wont be a prob...but if the 26 had a 26 box, then the length of the shaft might have changed....i think you need to get a different yoke ...i will find out soon.

only problem i can see is in the loom/hard wired ecu form the rb26 car.

you have 2 options:

a) get someone who knows what they are doing and have wired in a link beofre to un-wire the ecu and transfer it into the other car

or

b) swap looms with the engines

option b would be heaps easier in my opinion, as you could do that urself pretty much, and u know its going to work (well ull have more of a chance of it working :P)

everything else will just swap straight over and bolt up :D

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
