Hard to say from the pics, it could be a mix of what they had lying around, late s2 does have plastic CAS, it hasn't got the neo ps pump.

As you say see if it's got the drain at the front of the head, might not matter depending what parts are needed

Are you sure? I have only ever seen R33 'S3' with the plastic CAS, they also have the R34 ECU header plug and the coilpacks mount directly to the head, but still hydraulic lifters and no VCT drain.

I thought it looked more S2.5+ than Neo, but photos aren't sufficient to convince.

It certainly does not have the R34 Neo throttlebody on it.

If it is a vanilla RB25, then it will have come out of an R33 Skyline**. If it is somehow AWD in the Patrol, then it would have come from a Stagea**.

There are a couple of other choices of vehicles that the engine could have come out of, but not to the extent that it would make any difference.

Was going to say it looks like my '98, so the last of the R33's, but the timing cover behind the CAS is different and much bulkier.  It has a larger flange and that webbing that mine doesn't have.

Looks like its lost some coolant more than once as well - all that white dust.

interesting conversion. probably goes way better than my td42 one but I suspect an rb25 will still struggle moving all that weight.

surely it is 4wd....if the original engine was td28 it is likely all the original patrol 4wd stuff bolted right up.

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
