hey guys.

just wondering if anyone can tell me what the differences between the rb20det in the gts4 and the gtst is?

i know sump is different, attatched to front diff, and gearbox is different.

im thinkn about converting to rwd, my rb20 is comin to the ends of its life at nearly 200,000kms, and im thinkn rb25, but i wanna know what exactly i may need. i wanna keep the car, has a lot of blood sweat and tears gone into it and alot of stuff i dont want to do again lol.

already have a turbo set up to suit rb25, so do i just need rb25 with plenum side, loom and ecu?

nah i wanna totally get rid of front drive shafts and diff, dont want 4wd anymore... as i never use it, had car for 3 years or so now, and mostly run it rwd with fuse pulled out, its just dead extra weight for me, at the least, my current rb20det off gts4 is still running ok, whats the difference between that and normal gtst rb20? just the sump and diff assemebly?

so if i wanted to remove my front diff, to get rid of 4wd, what will i need to do? assuming:

-gtst sump, gtst bell housing to fit gtr style gearbox onto the rb20.

-take out driveshafts and diff, and put everything together?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
