Hi Guys, im asking for a hugeeee favour from any of you guys out there that have completed this project.

Here is a run down, I have had a spare RB26 block, with forged internals (jun pistons, rings, conrods, and valve springs etc.), that is sitting in my garage waiting to get convereted into my gt-t. (head is arriving soon)

I just need a basic run down of things I need to get or do before I can complete this conversion, as I want to have the car off the road as short as possible, and not want to have to wait for one special part.

Such things as wiring loom? Can I modifiy the GTR wiring loom with the factory loom?

Can you guys please list as much detail as possible, this would be greatly apprieciated. Also if you could add what I should be paying for extra parts needed so I have a rough idea too.

Thanks

Mark.

I've always been of the opinion it's easier to throw the R34 sensors on the RB26 and run an R34 Power FC to keep everything simple, just splice easy looms like the injectors and minor stuff.

PM Driver, he did his own RB26 conversion in his R34

Shit I have not been on here in a while..

I'm just trying to remember what I did it was a while ago.

Gearbox is a straight fit, and you will need to use the gt-t engine mounts on your gtr engine by memory.

Things off the top of my head that need to be modified

Coolerpiping (you will need to cut a whole where there would normally be one on the GTR for the piping, its not going to effect the chassi)

Aircon piping

exhaust downpipe

and wiring..

The only part that sucks is the splicing the wiring looms together, I would reccommend you get hold of a gt-t loom and the GTR loom and wiring diagrams for each. I linked mine up with a PFC and not the standard ecu.

hey,

i was the guy that helped driver with the conversion. basicly i merged the gtr loom with the gtt loom to allow a rb26 power fc to plug directly into the gtt loom. loom took about 10 days to make (bout 3 hours each day), but she fired up the first time!!

i cant remeber exactly, but we had to the mix and match the left and right mounts. I think the gtr braket doesnt fit, and the gtt ons bolt directly on.

radiator pipes bolt in, intercooler pipes had to be customised.

The aircon wiring had to be completly customised, and admittedly i havnt actually finished it. (driver: will get to some time soon :) )

rb26 dump pipes bolt directly in the gtt zorst.

that all i cant think of at the moment, wiring is pretty much the most difficult thing.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
