The RB26DETT wont go behind the auto box...

 

But it will go in front of it :D

 

Your main problem would be the electronic control of the auto...  I doubt the RB26DETT ECU sends the correct signals to the auto ECU

Just so I can be a smartarse like you...

Depends on which way you are looking at the car :)

BTW, if your running an aftermarket ecu (as Id guess you would be going for a drag set up) then is the ECU really going to be sending messages to the gearbox? And would you not be going for a nice big built box with a big stall etc???

Hahah well I consider the front of my car to be umm.... the front... You know... the bit... that you sit... behind... :confused:

Yeah I was asuming he was talking about a standard 33 auto box... If he's talking Powerglide, et al, disregard my electronic control comments... And add in bellhousing / crossmember comments...

Keep an eye on Zoom magazine, they are doing a 4 door R33 with Auto RB26.

would you mind helping a fellow out and post the email address or contact info for ZOOM magazine. We don't get this rag where I live, and would like to contact them to see if I can buy a full subscription up front, and pay the extra to send them to me....

Thank you for any help with this... :(

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
