Where do you start...

If you want the AWD system, I won't even bother mentioning everything, just get a GTR or a drop a RB26 into a GTS4.

A RB25DET or a NEO RB25DET is the better option. If you have your heart set on the RB26 (a whole +70cc of displacement over a RB25) in RWD and willing to screw around, then you will need the engine obviously (with the front diff cut off) and at least a RB25 gearbox or a RB26 gearbox (with transfer case cut off) as a RB20 box can't take the power, new fuel pump, new turbos.... I'm not even going to bother continuing.

I have a gts4 and nearly have the funds to do my 26 swap,for you tho it would be easier and cheaper to go the 25 in a gtst but if your hearts set on a 26 and you have the money and time for the hassles that go with the swap go for it mate..

I believe on paper a Neo RB25/S2 Stag 25 ? puts out 206 kw and an R32 26 on paper 209 . Neo 25 is probably a cheaper simpler better all round road engine with a lot less complications/agro . Stag 25 block is like a 26 round the sump and possily has a better ratio diff for the larger (than RB20) engine .

Your call , late Stag 25 better option IMO .

    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
