 Looking for a complete parts list for a manual conversion on a C35 Laurel! Not a C33 or C34 gonna use a rb25det gearbox hopefully from an r33, honestly hoping I can use all r33 parts.

Already tried to use the search function cant seem to find much for a C35.

Thanks guys!

We down in Australia didn't get many C35 Laurels.

 Oh ok wasn't sure, well might just look for a C34 then as I think I've seen some threads involving them while I was looking through the forum. I'll see if I can find some info around on a manual swap for one of those.

Thanks!

AFAIK, 35 is mostly the same as C34. The changes were just "facelift" for the body and "R34 equivalent Neo" mechanically. To that end, I would hope that C34 clutch pedal box might be the same as C35, and you might hope that R33 is same as C34/5 also. I would not presume that R34 clutch pedal box is same, but it really should be, because the main structural parts of the R34 are basically the same as R33 also.

The C35 should have R34 type gearbox, which means pull clutch. The C34 really should be same as R33, which is push. You can use either, but be aware that you can't mix and match pull gearboxes with push clutches and vice-versa without adding some extra hassle into your life.

  Ok thanks,  I'll definitely be doing quite a bit more research before I pick one to import!

There were no manual C35 Laurels and the C34 had a manual only for the diesel version so get one of those and change it to petrol power!

Here's  one:

 Yeah I know about the C34 rather get one that's auto that already has the Rb25det in it as I already have r33 gearbox. And that ones a bit on the pricey end haha Maybe it's just pricey to me because I'm in Canada.

Out of curiosity is the manual gearbox in the diesel c34 same as a r33 as well? Or are they pretty strong to run behind a rb25det?

IIRC, the first time I saw a C35 was on an old HPI magazine DVD. The car was used for "street" drifting, had an RB26DETT and I believe 5 speed out of R33. So it's certainly doable, and being a 90's Nissan, shouldn't deviate too much from C34/R33/R34.

Best of luck and let us know how it goes.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
