rb20det to awd

[Cozzamb]

does anyone know if it is possible to convert a rwd rb20det to awd i have a awd sump on my 25de in my r33 gts4 and need more power while still being “p plate legal” would it be a straight swap or would i need some sort of adapter plate

You don't need more power while you're on your P plates, you need to get off your Ps so you need more time.

I'm sure it can be done with modifications.

I am currently putting an rb25 stagea awd sump on an rwd rb20 block. You will need an adapter plate with a custom pickup, or an aftermarket awd girdle with a custom pickup as the pickup location is different rwd vs awd blocks. You will also need to clearance some of the block for a few of the sump bolts.

And by the time you've finished, you would have spent enough for a RB25DET NEO AWD motor which is quantum leap when compared to the RB20 or RB25 with hydraulic lifters.

Then after all that, you'll probably want it to actually go fast, put aside another 15k.

Then a BMW M2/3/4 Comp sounds like a good value.
