So I sold my 34 Gt-t so i could buy property.

Had plans to convert the 2.7 911 project i have with my bro to a 3.2ltr engine.

After finding 4 different 3.2's which all failed to pass leakdown tests, we have decided to sell the 911.

Im going to need another car, I was thinking about a 33 GTR V-Spec, because that is in my price range.

Has anyone made the R34 to R33 transition?

Any thing else worth looking at?

Any thoughts would be appreciated because i cant make up my mind.

Hey Phil,

i did that transition just then. :(. power wise i have to say there is quite a bit of a difference. In terms of condition of the car, i was fine with the adjustment from the newer R34 to the older R33.

Interior wise u'll definitely see and feel the difference. It is slightly bigger in the R33 GTR.

In terms of driving, the Attesa in the GTR is REALLY REALLY REALLY different from the GTT. That is something you have to get used to and best thing to do is to go for an advance driver's course. Controlling the car is different.

when i was gtr shopping a few months ago i was told not to realy look for the vspecs, once the diff screws up or woteva you cant realy fix it ?? and aparantly most ppl cant tell the differance between the 2 on the 33's

Out of the 3 vspecs i saw though, 1 was real with the diff, the other 2 just had the vspec stickers.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
