Now this is something else! Have got the answer that it does fit, or rather that someone used a R33 GTST S1 in his RB26 but...

It does seem like a GTR igniter pack would fit, since its the same connectors in both endes but as far as i've experienced the last couple of hours its only when turned the wrong way around!

The GTR igniter i recieved came with the cables for the coils. But now when im comparing the cables its seems like the GTR cables going from the igniter pack has got the same connector as the GTST cables going into the igniter pack from the main harness!

Also if someone could confirm this; the igniter pack shouldnt get hot whith the key in 'ON' position??

R33 GTST S1 coils are not compatible with the GTR ignitor pack as the ignitors I believe are in the coil for the GTR coils, but not in the GTST S1 - I would suggest the only way your mate has his work is to change the coilpacks to GTST models. I have the same in my 26/30 running my old RB25 ignitor, to save on changing the coilpack loom.

I can tell you first hand that this is wrong, im running R33 GTR coils in my S1 GTST and using the S1 GTST ignitor.

Can see the ignitor in both of these pics.

Thanks for the help!

Ye i thought it sounded a bit weird that i wouldnt be able to use the R32 GTR coils cause thats the part i was sure of!

Going to borrow a GTST S1 igniter today and see if i get a different result.

Now i've got some selfexperienced facts to add, just came from the garage, with a borrowed GTST S1 igniter and.... It started!

Not only that it started, its the first time the engine has EVER started since its my RB31/26DETT build, and now there a thick fumey fog surrounding the garage :P

So to put an end to this thread, the R32 GTR igniter pack does NOT co-op with R33 GTST S1 if its the GTST harnesses that are used.

You can carefully release the lock bar in both connectors, remove all the pins noting positioning in writing, and transfer the casings to the correct sides of the loom. One wire in the main loom then becomes redundant. I have this running on an RB26DETT engine in my R33 GTS-t. It's on Motec but that's by the by as far as the igniter wiring is concerned.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
