There's a reason everyone swaps out the engine...

Not wanting to kill your hopes and dreams, but all you can really do with N/As is change headers/exhaust/intake/ignition/earthing/capacity/displacements/timing/gearbox/weight.

Do what you want though. Turbo or N/A, what's it for? Drift?

i just thought having non-u.s. thoughts could have helped especially when it came to the rb motor, considering you guys can have skylines and we don't(it's rare but some do), pretty jealous about that, just wish i could have an r32 and call it a day. thanks for the responses, guess i just have to ponder on it.

Can't you import one?

Which was Americas way of saying fuck you for Pearl Harbour :whistling:

Not surprising he is asking for info here, we've done more Skylines and Silvias than America has. SR20 conversion is the best thing for your vehicle OP. It's a factory engine, been done plenty of times and there are plenty of parts available.

if you liked it (n/a) you should have put an LS1 on it ;)

(i'm serious for N/A powaaah)

Good point. Lots of alloy chev engines in the USA. The alloy V8s are also lighter than the RB too.

Or go the VQ35DE engine or if really keen go the VQ37.

Yep go a LS1/2. Pretty sure you can get bolt in kits for them in the US (saw them ages ago). Given how cheap they are over there and are a lot lighter than a RB it would be the best choice for something NA and slightly different.

    • 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.
