Ok, here goes:

Spun a bearing in S2 motor, and mate has a spare 25 out of a stagea, so he's been told. So assuming its S1 motor seeing it has an ignitor box at the back of the motor. The motor will be going into a S2 R33. Heres the info and questions:

1) I have a rb20 computer tune to run the 25 (assuming using S2 AFM)

2) AFM's different between motors, how will this effect things. What can I do about it?

3) I have splitfire coil packs, will these run in the S1 motor with the ignitor box?

4) Is there anything else I am missing?

5) are there any major differences between the motors?

Is there anything I missed??? Was hoping this be out and in swap without stuffing around...

Cheers

If the engine is from a Stagea, then it should have a AWD sump, with the diff hanging off the side. Pretty sure all Stagea RB25 are S2.

If you have a RB20 ECU running a S2, how does it control the VVT?

The simplest method to use the other engine is to transfer all the electrical items (AFM, coils, etc) from your dead engine onto the replacement engine.

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
