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.

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
