Hi, my rb20det is on its way out and iv bin readin up on a rb25det conversions and decided to go ahead with the transplant.

Just would like some advice on what of my aftermarket rb20 parts i can reuse because they are still in good condition

List of what i have:

High mount manifold

Garret GT3076R

Externall gate

Power Fc with controller (AP Engineering, would realy like to keep this if i can)

Sard injectors (think they are 550)

600hp fuil pump

Hybrid cooler(piping should be identical)

Remote oil Cooler.

Bassically just all the bolt on stuff. Decided just to upgrade engine instead of putting internalls into this one.

Also the only bit about transplant im usure about is fitting the RB25 gearbox in. Its an R32 gtst. Would all mounts line up.

Any information about where i might get an r33 half cut from, with engine and gearbox in good condition would be handy as well. Near Brissy area would be best.

Thanks Fellas

Mike.

Everything except the pfc and sard's will bolt straight on, you could either sell the pfc and buy an rb25 one(with money in your pocket)or make it fit which wont be hard, just use your existing look and sensors. The injectors should be able to be made to fit, just need an aftermarket rail, or maybe mod you rb20 one.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
