good choice for you I think

use the rb26 ecu and loom afms etc .

you gear box will bolt up hicas and abs are separate to the motor..

you will also need a different sump for the rb 26 as that one has a diff in it your rb 25 sump could work but might need a few mods

meggala

u will need to modify and splice the 2 looms together. as for the rb25 keep it aside , as u will need bit and pieces of it to make your rb26 works. also the power steering pumps need to be modify as the rb26 is a dual lines unit and a rb25 is a single feed item, hopes that help abit. but do it, it brings smiles on your faces every drive.

Four more questions :(:

1. what is sump

2. what does loom mean?

3. Will GTR ceramic clutch fit my (rb25) gear box?

4. I heard that 280 hp is a law limit in Japan. But the real potential of rb26 engine is much higher, so how do i use the potential - just get a reprogrammed ECU?

about the power steering pump - i was planning to fit my pump to that rb26 engine, i guess it will work fine?

rb26dett sump has the front diff moulded to it so u cant use in your car but u r rb25 sump should fit on the rb 26 block thats what meggala was all about other option would be to modify the rb26 sump cut the diff off and a bit of welding .

yes you will be able to you will just need to have some one doit who can trace the wires back . the speedo runs off a cable to the gear box you will need to find the source for the tacho. one trick is to keep you alternator and starter wiring from the rb 25 .

I think your water temp should be ok as well oil pressure should be the same or very similar.

I fitted an sr 20 into my r32 most things in my dash do work only the tacho isnt working but we will sort that

meggala

The tach is simple, just find the wire for the tach on the cluster, should be yellow/red, then find the wire on the ECU pin out, and splice a wire from the ECU tach signal wire to the wire in the back of the cluster. Thats how I got the tach to work in my RB20 240sx, but I had to put the R32 tach into my 240sx cluster, meggala, you may need a different tach, I know the SR20 has a different signal than the RB20 tach signal has. It reads 2x as high with the tach meant for my KA.

we dont have snow... just rain, that makes for good, WIDE, drifto at the saving of tyres!

But yeah, if you can do it yourself good luck, post up pics too.

I love seeing 26's.

There is a 26 going into and R31 here in melb ATM. It's been done before but it's still cool!

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
