in the middle of doin a rb26 into r32 gts-t and wondering if i can use the rb20 wiring harness ill be running an after market computer with map sensor so the duel air flow

sensors wont be a problem

all the other sensor plugs look the same but just want to be sure

I suppose you could use the 20 harness, but it would require lots of hacking and modification. I have never done it. Every time I use a RB26 cyl head, no matter what engine or what car, I always use the RB26 harness.

If you have a 26 harness, use it. Its rather easy to use make work in a GTS-T. Just need to hardwire in your injector resistor pack, most the rest plugs right in.

thats the prob i dont have the 26 harness the block i got was fairly bare but it still has most of the sensors still on it

i plan on running a haltec or similar with map sensor ecu

i dont really wanna pay for a after market harness that why i was hoping the rb20 harness works

If I were you i would try to pick up a RB26 harness used. Your just going to have a headache using the 20 harness. lots of the sensors on the harness are in different locations and would require extending some and some sensors may use different plug ends on them.

Im not sure about Aus, but a second hand RB26 harness goes for around $150 CAD here in Canada. I know of a couple for sale right now in fact. If in the end you decide to purchase one and have troubles finding one you can pm me and I can help track one down for you. Shipping could be pricey tho :( Something to keep in mind.

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
