I was told by the guy who built my engine that the area that the oil pump attaches to the crank is superior......It was only last Friday I was told by someone else I trust a little less, that there is no difference, and that a 33 crank would need a collar to ensure the oil pump had a good grip on the crank.

I too would like to hear the answer to this one.

Whoever you trust - dont trust them cause they are horridly wrong.

R33 does NOT need a collar.

As for pics/difference... plenty of threads. Its just the oil pump drive. Thats it.

Hey guys like the title says im trying to find out the differnce between the 32 and 33 gtr crank any help will be appreciated.

Ive got pics here somewhere.

Notice the larger surface area of the flattened oil pump drive on the snout of the crank on the R33 item. The R32 is significantly smaller. You can see why they crack oil pump gears.

so this crank look to be either a late modle r32 crank or r33 crank?

That third pic sucks, but it appears to be an R33 crank.

You just saved a grand on a new crank! Now you can go spend it on a million other things needed for what you are doing. Ive been there!

Shaun.

hey shaun thanks for the info. I actually bought the engine as a running standard r32 engine got it home and the insides were stuffed but thankfully it had those magic numbers on the side 24U :) and now it has a 33 crank thank you god!!!

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
