ive just picked up a S2 r33 gts-t wreck for a good price. i want to pull out the rb25de neo engine and auto box and replace it with all the stuff from the 33 (engine, box, driveshaft, diff, beaks etc) all the mechanic should be straight forward but will the r33 rb25det wiring harness plug into the r34 rb25de ex auto harness or will it need some modding? has anyone done it n can u give me any tips? only post if uve done it or helped someone do it thanks. i want everything to work as it should, speedo, tacho aircon etc.

I haven't done it before but I've wrecked them, both 33 and 34 turbo. 33 turbo brakes are different to my knowledge to the 34, some bolt holes need to be modified I believe, though it is doable.

You'll need a RB25DET non-neo engine loom as it has been said it is different.

Personally if I were to do it, I'd take a 34 GTT and put it in a NA 34 or using 34 bits for 33 upgrade. I wouldn't go putting 33 parts into a 34. Just a personal thing though.

The brakes and suspension from the 33 went straight on no problem. I know the gearbox will go straight on, only thing im not sure about is the wiring harness, particularly where it goes into the car through the firewall. Im not sure if it will plug straight up to the dash. I may put a neo engine in if the wiring isnt plug and play

    • 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.
