Made up my mine the FD is booked in at the end of September (unless the project he is working on now takes longer) and I'm putting in the rb26, yes gonna cost abit but I can't wait and want something different, the 26 is almost all done from its rebuild only waiting one the covers getting painted, and the custom made sump should be here next week, gonna be a long but fun build and can't wait!!

Looks sweet mate, hope yours turns out just as good. It's gonna be a mission to get it done, and I'm guessing you can't register it right? Will still be an awesome car to own and will sound that much better than a rotor when the 'gate cracks :-)

Looking forward to updates, good luck :-)

Awesome pics thanks mate :D makes me get sooo keen for mine!! Sorry about late reply been over at NZ for a week, and yep ive been talking to the engineers and they said it should be fine to register as they mad te rb26 up until 2002, and he said they also class the rotor to have 1.3l each rotor?!? Never Hurd that but yeah so he sai it should be fine it's gonna be my every day driver or I won't do it haha and when we start building I'll be posting a shit load of pics and info

in regards to engine capacity rotors are doubled compared to piston motors so in capacity terms a 13B is 2.6Ltrs.

and i cant wait to see this build start, i have a mate doing a 2JZ in his FD, its off getting a 4 link rear end atm. guna be pretty mental! ive also done a Rb26 conversion into my S15, love it!

    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as 
    • Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement
    • This seems to be a very popular swap since all the turbo skyline prices went through the roof! I'll let someone more familiar chime in, but I understand that yes you probably want to swap the loom in to swap out the auto TCM stuff. You should not assume everything just plugs in either, you need to check at least the ECU wiring diagram for any differences at the plug at the left headlight and probably the ones near the ECU that join the dash loom too  
    • hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy
