If you aren't planning an AWD conversion, then the RB26 sump and GTR box can be modified to RWD format, but unless you've got the gearbox already it would be far easier to get an RB25DET gearbox, which shares internals with the GTR box but is less a transfer case.

On second thoughts, on re-reading that it sounds like your planning on fitting AWD to an RB20DET, not converting from an RB20DET to RB26DETT. For what it will cost you in parts and labour, sell your GTS-T and buy a GTR, it will be cheaper. On top of that, I'm not even sure an RB26 sump will bolt to an RB20 block. I know for sure that RB30 blocks don't have the extra bolts, assuming RB20 would be similar.

      You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.

      Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".

      I removed the head expecting to find broken and bent valves, but instead found number 1 at TDC and cylinder 2 at the top of its cylinder stroke as well, thought that was weird and proceeded to push cylinder 2 back down until it either bottomed out on its other piston half or the conrod either way we found the issue kind of,  now to remove the engine and see how the block looks, hopefully its just the top off a piston.

      A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
