Engine Swap to GTSt

[skyliner33wa]

Hi all,

I have decided to do an Engine swap in my R33 GTS, i have the option of getting a GTSt engine or a half cut, what would anyone here reccommend, i want it to go as smoothly as possible, as in not get the engine and find out i need this, or that, etc.. also where can i find a Half Cut, or GTSt engine besides Just Jap, i just want to shop around first,

Can anyone give me some advice, pointers, etc...

Cheers

Kris

go the half cut for sure.

and grab a whole diff/rear end as well you wont regret it

and you sell the bit you dont want off the half cut later

there are a number of importers in wa ring around but wait for a good half cut and ask for a comlete one including brakes evry thing

Some guy in a different thread is looking for a GTS I mentioned your name so you might get a response.

Firstly speak to the RTA techincal branch in Perth on the phone. They are VERY GOOD.

If need be an Engineer. It's not a hugh issue but will help with licencing.

Get the half cut and do the BRAKES on the gts. Plus you get a spare bonnet and guards etc and much needed gearbox. Megs may be right on the diff.. I'm not sure. Do a HP clutch.. your gunna need it with the drag season around the corner.

You can sell the engine to a Commdore guy with the ECU to pay for things. Even the NA gearbox will be worth something to help pay for all this. Plus the lights and stuff after someone has a prang.......

It is worth while as a conversion and has merits.
