Installing R33 Rb25det Into R34 Gts

[maike]

Hi everyone.

I'm just thinking of installing a r33 rb25det into my r34 as I find its much easier and cheaper to get a r33 rb25det then the neo engines.

What I wanna know is how different is the r33 rb25det to the r34 rb25de.

I'm talking about fitment and wire loom. Can I use the loom from the neo engine? or will I have to cut it up and use the r33 loom?

What other changes will I have to do? I'm guessing ecu, gearbox.

Will the triptronic of the r34 work on the r33?

Any advice would be a be help.

Regards Maike.

Just a quick word.

Its worth spending the extra money and waiting a little more for a NEO. They are far better engines than the 33 ones.

Yeah, I was thinking that too. I was just playing with the idea. I'm not really after big power just turbo thats the only reason I was considering the r33 rb engine as I don't really want to spend too much either *dreams* Guess I can wait few years til the neo is cheaper. hehe

keep dreaming...unfortunately you get waht you pay for and 9/10 things end up costing too much or a lot more than expected lol

sorry to hijack your thread . But say for instance i had a 420hp s2 rb25 sitting and a sadly wrecked 33. lookin at upgrading to the 34 style (much nicer imo). so same q's as maike, just not a dream. kinda serious. everything mechanical wise is fine on the 33 [except fmic and radiator/ac].

any advice would be greatly appreciated...

RBNRG, I guess if you have all the parts there then go for it. But for the OP I agree with the others that it's sorta pointless, putting older tech. into a newer car. NEO would be better and easier

i don't think you can put an older engine into a newer car?
