and again. this is wrong.

Ok

I have read through the posts that someone gave me earlier in the thread, plus the ones that I found.

Also I pulled up severl old SAU posts and one where someone went into detail about what they did to put a 25 into a r32 gtst and semi detail about the wiring.

What am I wrong about and which parts? I am here to learn.

Is this place in Japan? I will ask my friends to check on it if it is.

Yes. They make wiring harnesses exactly for this scenario.

You have 3 options:

1. S1 RB25DET > Easiest option

2. S2 RB25DET > Wiring more difficult

3. RB25DET NEO > Most difficult

If you want the best engine, you go with #3. If you want the easiest to put it and make work, you go with #1. I don't see the point of #2 personally unless you can't find a S1 and you are forced to use a S2.

Putting a RB26 into your GTS-t is just a stupid waste of time/money. If you want a RB26, buy a GT-R. If you want to upgrade your GTS-t, buy a RB25. Or put a better turbo on your RB20. But I just don't see why you would fiddle to get the RB26 to fit and work properly when clearly the RB25 is a bolt on solution. Especially the S1.

I hope your RB20 is at least dead or dying though...if it still works why don't you just get a better turbo for now and worry about engine swaps later when it does die?

The reason for him considering swaps to larger engines is a number of us telling him that he can't have the power level he wants from an RB20 AND have it responsive. If he wants both, then he needs more cubes.

OK, yeah. If he wants 400hp he needs more cc. 350hp he can keep the 20.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
