i just got a fairly bare r32 rb26 with just the block, head, harmonic balancer, intake and exhaust manifolds no electrics left on it and its been sitting a while and dunno how manny k's its done so its gonna need a rebuild but i've already got a rb20 in my silvia is there any way i could rebuild the rb26 and still use the rb20 wiring harness and electrics, i got a heltec E8 ecu setup for the rb20 and i guess that can be adjusted for the extra displacement , any help would be appreciated

ok so i got the engine rebuilt and putting it all together now so is it possible to get this 26 running with my 20 harness and programed haltec ecu

help me out lads i think it will work i just need some backup :yes:

ok so can i use the igniter and cam sensor from the rb20? and the harness cant be to much different even if i have to lengthen a few wires here and there

URAS what do u mean buy using the heltec loom cos this engine has no wiring harness at all all i got a rb20 harness to play with

the only problem i can see is the TPS depending on what you are going to use for an inlet manifold

i was thinkin that too but i'm hopeing the sensor will be similar even if i have to cut and solder the wires to fit if not iwas thinking of buying a greddy plenum or similar and puttin a 90mm throtle body on it

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
