i've done a search trying to get info on putting a r33 gtr engine into an r32 gtr. Found this on the difference between them performance wise

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...topic=92904&hl=

in it found this info - r33 has pull clutch unlike th r32 which is push.

my mate is putting a r33 gtr engine in his r32 and is under the impression that it will bolt straight up to everything. Keeping in mind using r33 ecu, loom and turbos. (using r32 gearbox, clutch + so on)

im not so sure.

can people please list some threads or problems that he might run into. thankyou

if clutches are different then this will cause a big problem? yes/no

yeah the engine will bolt directly up. the r32 gtr ecu should also run it.

r33 ecu and loom is WAYYYYY differant to the r32 gtr one. e.g the r33 have the battery in the boot!

just bolt in the r33 rb26 and use the r32 gtr ecu and loom.

cool, that'll save him some cash. umm, what bout clutches, pull/push. doesn't matter or is that incorrect?????????

it will all go in.

hel need to use the 32 clutch and flywheel.

also the 32  02 sensors. diferant. it will have drivability problems.

Drivability problems???

Why is that???

Aren't these engines very similar???

this is happening and if we are going to run into major problems then he'll be probably be better off getting a 32gtr engine.

i'm guessing someone must have done this before, can you please put in your two cents.

i'm sorry if this has been discussed at length before but i can't find anything. thankyou

32 02 senors are a "titanium" type. they work completly diferantly.much like a proper a/f sensor but not as advanced.

they vary a voltage going through them acording to the a/f ratio. rather than put out a ocilating voltage. i think.

33 ones are the normal type whatever that is.

besides i used a 33 computer on mine 89gtr(a/c testing etc) and full throttle is fine but light throttle was so bad i thought i had a dud afm!!

basicly any throtthe opening where closed loop control is used {everthing except full throttle}

it will buck and carry on and give him the shits.

wont notice it till they are up to temp.

i first ran in to this when i thought id use a 33 computer to get the better programing.(more torque)

hope that clears t up.

hey guys, i'm the mate who is getting the engine put in. Just signed up to the forum today. thanks for all the information, youv'e convinced me it's worth being a member. Hope to catch up with ya all if/when the car is back on the road. thanks again, will keep ya's posted with the progress.

here's some pics of my baby, not much to look at yet but give me time :P:):O

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
