Hey Guys,

Looking on my mates car his blue jap ID tag says its an RB20D 1998 CC and he has an R33 S2 :w00t:

Now R33 don't come out with RB20 full stop. How could this have been complied if just those number along don't make any sense? Any one else comment on what there Blue ID tag says?

yeah he has a 5 speed S2 Turbo 5 stud wheel pattern. So does that mean engine swap before it got complied?

probably swapped.....post up or pm me the vin we can check it out.

Or could they have swapped tags before it was complied? Is there a hidden place that they would have stamped the cars vin from factory?

His details are:

HR33-102280

vin: 6U90000HR33102280

vin shows that it was not originally an r33 gts-t. All gts-t's begin with ECR33 not HR33.

GTS HR33 (FR) RB20E

GTS (latter term) HR33 (FR) RB20E

GTS urban liner S HR33 (FR) RB20E

GTS Type-X LImited (latter term) HR33 (FR) RB20E

GTS Type-X (latter term) HR33 (FR) RB20E

GTS Type-G (prior-term * mid term) HR33 (FR) RB20E

GTS Type-XG 40th HR33 (FR) RB20E

GTS Type-XG (prior-term * mid term) HR33 (FR) RB20E

GTS (all period) HR33 (FR) RB20E

yep definately started life with an rb20de......

btw not sure how you got the car, but it really should never have been complied with that vin (and it is very likely the compliancer knew from the vin). if you wanted you could probably pursue compensation

yeah he is chasing it up with Vic roads and also trying to get the details of the actual compliance place that did the car.

They didn't make RB 20E engins in 97 ? Nissan stoped them in 95 didn't they?

If the car was complied under the old scheme when unlimited mods were allowed (green alloy compliance tag), prior to SEVS, it probably is not a problem.

But if the car was complied under sevs (pink complinace sticker) then there could be a problem

No it has the green compliance tag

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
