hahahaha, yeah i thought so too, but we worked till 3am most nights then up at 6am next day, sunday night i didnt go to bed. Finished off a few little bits n pieces last night, well scottie did neway, i passed out on the back of scotties ute. But yeah i was expecting at the very least 2 weeks to do the conversion.

All thats left is to make a surround for the gear shifter and some little wiring things but there not esential so they can wait im having fun NOW! haha

how long did it take you to get it in an running?

i think the quickest transplant would have to be my mechanic start friday night finish sunday arvo RB25 into R32

engine, gearbox, diff, FMIC, EBC, and 3 inch turbo back exhaust.

and dynoed

How much wiring and modifacation was there though? it took me an 2 hours to pull the old engine out. And about 9 days total of stripping half cut, fabricating mounts exaust modifing the k frame, sorting wiring, making power steering pump bracket, stripping the timing chain covers off the engine and rocker covers and inlet manifold to change the timing chain guides, modifying bonnet and making new bonnet hinges modifying front end to accomidate infinity radiator building a full custom set of headers to fit in the tiny space left between the rails and clear the steering shaft on the drivers side, modifyed the dash to accomidate the bigger infinity cluster and probably a bit more too.

youve done very well congrats man

its good to see there are still some people who still prefer to do things the hard way to be different

last thing u need now is an XR8 style bonnet would look mean with that massive bulge :)

i wanted to do a high compression NA RB30 but i didnt have the patience and just went for the RB25DET but to be honest i wish i went through with the RB30 :/

Oh my Gawd!

    • Thanks heaps Duncan and GTSBoy. I'll get my old man to sit in the driver's seat and turn it on and off while I test with the meter. Or maybe other way round, depending on whether he remembers where his glasses got to
    • This is the GTR fuel pump. Yellow shows 12V, orange shows earth. The ECU provides the earth to activate the fuel pump relay. The ECU side of teh relay will pull low when the ECU activates. This is the RB20 fuel pump. Almost the same, but a little simpler. You can see I indicated (above) where the 12V line goes down to the RB20 diagram on the overall diagram, whch shows both RB26 and RB20. This is where I show it coming in on the RB20 diagram below. You can see that the dropping resistor is handled differently. When the fuel pump control is not providing earth to the pump, the pump earths through the dropping resistor and thus runs at lower voltage (some is wasted over the resistor) and runs slower. I showed that "not 12V and not quite earth" portion of the wiring in a paler orange. The rest of the wiring that I did not colour on that little section below the pump would be orange when the fuel pump coontroller is providing earth. This drop is handled inside the fuel pump controller in the GTR. Regardless, you can see where 12V is supposed to be, where earth is supposed to be. The key on prime is via the ECU providing the pump for only a few seconds the switching off. You should be able to see that happen.
