It's been done before, I'm sure. Have a search on here, I know at least one person has looked into it before. From memory the R34 6speed needs a custom length tailshaft made up, and there might be a bit more custom work.

Gearbox mounts will be different - prop shaft will need work - you will need the ECU AND internal wiring loom that plugs into ECU , and the under bonnet wiring loom from R34 GTR as there are pin differences ! , the ECU from 34GTR will not fit Stagea ECU plug , GTR is blue plug and Stagea grey - you will need a bigger fuel pump - AND YOU WILL NEED BETTER BRAKES !!! MY GTR BRAKES WITH PROJECTMU PADS ARE STILL NOT ENOUGH !!

Here in UK we have a V8 Stagea - a 2.8 HKS stroker and a stock gearboxed 500BHP RB25DET - + some Autec`s

Its all been done before XCEPT 6 speed as far as i know ...

Thank you very much!

Big project...A lot of work need to do, if put the GTR engine in stagea.

I though just change the engine and Gearbox + some more.

The 6 speed is easy, but why would you want to get rid of VCT? You need every bit of response you can get in these heavy wagons. The RB25neo is a better engine overall.

Did you mean Rb25neo change the 5 speed greabox to 6 speed??

RB owners will not be impressed with the fitting of a 26 in a stagea ! , as stated the NEO25 is a far superior engine when tuned - fitting twin turbo`s and a 6 speed gearbox is worth a silent nod !

a rear wheel drive stagea with over 250whp that can be driven in the wet and not crashed would also be impressive

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
