1. use common sense

2. search

the information is readily available on the forum, you can use any RB series powerfc. obviously you cant easily get one from another car and get it to work.

because all RB's are fairly similar electronically and the powerfc has the ability to be tuned, you can get a powerfc from any RB powered skyline to run any other. BUT, only the R33 and R34 powerfc will do the job PROPERLY. the R34 has variable cam timing, only the R33 and R34 powerfc has the components inside to run that. using a RB26 powerfc is cheaper but you need to redo your wirring harness and you lose control of the VCT.

the VCT (variable cam timing) is makes the car alot more powerful down low, without VCT the car will feel alot laggier unless you get a really good tuner to tune it out with adjustable cam gears.

the forum is FULL of information, more than you will find by asking questions and usually you can ask your question in a topic that is already going.

If you have any questions about how to search, please ask, if not I have armed you already with more than I should have.

Goodluck

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
