If it was originally a GTS4 (i.e it is 4wd) it would be ENR33. I tried them all this morning, and no combination would work.

F = CA18

H = RB20

E = RB25

B = RB26

C = Super HICAS

N = Atessa

R = Chassis

CHASSIS CODES

-ER -- GTS25

-HR -- GTS

-ECR -- GTS25t

-ENR -- GTS-4

-BCNR -- GTR

Yes, if it says ECR, it is a turbo chassis/engine. The brakes are different, the number of wheel studs are different... i'm sure there are many other differences. If you had a motor swap, and you have a DE (Dual overhead, EFI) then either the plate is wrong, or the motor was swapped out.

So... if your chassis was a turbo model you should have 5-stud wheels, a stronger gearbox (not sure how to tell, but it could be a manual-only thing), obviously you'd have no boost gauge in the dash. The side-mount intercooler would have plumbed through the engine bay via two holes infront of the air filter box. That should be very obvious.

Check those things? If the chassis has all non-turbo parts, I would *guess* there is something wrong with that plate. Strangely though, that plate doesn't belong to another chassis... it just doesn't exist. =-o

Let us know.

OKAY well the brakes i have are slotted rotors? the wheels I have are SUPER ADVAN Racing Ver.2, all i can count is 4 studs? gearbox is auto, has 2nd/3rd/Drive gears, the intercooler takes up the whole front bumper? and has pipes going down each side of the front bumper? the air filter box is there but the rest of the CAI isnt..? its all been registered and been thru regency.. and im sure it is a turbo.. did you get PHOTOS to ur email????

a strange occurence i saw in the opposite direction was a series 1.5 96 model GTS25T 4 door. ER33 plate with RB25DET engine printed on it. full turbo everything but ER instead of ECR. strange ....

G'day mate could you check this vin it's meant to be a 1990 r32 gtr nismo gunmetal kh2 paint code

Vin: BNR32-100032

Model: KBNR32RXFSL RA

also if it's possible to find out If it had a/c and radio as I've been told that it was an option on the nismo

Cant tell you about the options, but its definatley a Nismo, if the chassis number starts with a 10XXXX, your particular one is number 32 out of 560?ish

Plus the model number ends in RA. Nice find.

Big ask! We need someone who can read Japanese, I think. ;o)

The specs:

F = Manual 5 Speed, S = EFI?, The L-M-A is your L-R-A

post-3573-0-73030600-1313371667_thumb.png

VS1 box = L... No idea what that says. There is no "R" that I can see, but the first item in VS2 is in Japanese.

"A" in the first box is also in Japanese.

More specs of LRA

Cheers Randy your a champ.

Yeah thought that might be a hard ask but there is a fair amount of info there I'll send it onto japan to a fella over there and see if he can get a translation of the japananese

Are you able to check engine numbers?

I have a rb26 with the engine number RB26-009627A

Trying to work out what it's out of. It's going into my 180sx. I've trawled the net for the last hour with no real luck and I'm only on my iPhone.

Cheers

Sorry mate, can't look those up. I would think there would be some info on SAU somewhere though?

32's don't seem to have a series, but r33's had three series! The 33 oil pumps had a bigger locator or something. I'm sure there must be lots of little differences like that, that you could spot if you could find the info.

edit: My mate says late 32's had the stronger oil pump too.

That GTR mate of mine is quite helpful!

Based on that (and I think more people should submit their engine numbers anonymously to this site), you have a REALLY early 32 GTr engine with the smaller oil pump drive. =-]

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
