GAH YOUR CAPSLOCK IS HURTING MY BRANS1!!!1!!TY!!!

Seriously though man there is tutorials galore on nissansilvia.com.

Its a piss easy swap by all accounts - easiest being an RB20 or RB25 swap. Honestly though unless you have a N/A S15 (and why, why, why would you?) or the engine thats in it sufferred from the traditional SR20 sudden exploding head syndrome keep the SR20DET - that late model engine is beautiful and so easily modified.

EDIT - Just realised he said GTR swap but meh I stand by what I said.

ok so its can be done with a rb25 engine but wat about the gtr engines is it possible there and fast and furious tokyo drift mate over in toky i recon the would get a s2000 motor in to a prelude lol

punctuationorban.

yes, if they can do it in Fast & Furious Tokyo Drift, then they can do it in real life. True story.

Fuckin school holidays.

hell yeah I'm going fully sick and transferring a RB20DE into my mustang...fully sick drift bro....i'm so the next DK

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
