Hi peoples i recently bought an R32 GTR and was told it had an R33 GTR eng in it. The eng number has been changed but how do i tell if it is an R33 RB 26. From what i understand the R33 is stronger than the R32 RB26 and the standard 33 eng can handle more boost. Thanx Michael...

From the engine number .

Isn't the oil pump/crank differen between the 2? No idea what the actual differences are just know they are different :thumbsup: Some of the late 32's are the same as the 33 tho...

Late 32's have the same crank as 33's , but I think he wants to know 'how he can tell the difference' and you cant see the crank unless you pull the oil pump off. There are other small differences ( external ) but you can't rely on them because they can be changed . The only sure way to tell is the number.

Ok thanx. Does any one know the eng number ranges for the R33 GTR eng.

Thanx Michael..

I have some data if you post or pm your engine number I should be able to tell you .

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
