Hey,

I am about to do the 100,000km service on my R32 GTR, when i purchase the car the owner told me it had an engine swap from a R33 GTR. However all i have to go on was his word.

Now i am looking at buying one of the Kits Kudos motorsport sell for the 100,000km service however i do not want to purchase the R33/R34 Kit only to find out i have an R32 Rb26. Is there any way i can check via the engine number? The engine came with N1 Turbo (which have now be replaced), i could check the ID plates on the old turbo to see if they are r32 or r33 N1 but i guess that is not 100% on what the engine is

any help would be great

Thanks Kaido

Im fairly certain that there is a stamp/mark/plate on the side of the block.. Im sure if you googled "engine number location" or similar you would find the info?

Oh by the way, dont be afraid to use the search function :) took me one search to find this...

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
