Rusty Nuts

Tell your idiot tuner to take his Bum Beanie off and learn his job properly, why the hell would you even listen to such bullshit.

Before you buy another engine, pull the head off your compression problem could be just valve related (ie sticking valve) or simply head gasket, diagnose first, spend money second.

Pm'ed to you mate

Don't know who "they" are mate i'm just stating the facts, I personally would not run a Rb26 with no lower bolts connecting the gearbox to the engine for obvious reasons, I also don't see why you would bother, I would sort out your current configuration

RB26 does not have lower mounting points for gearbox cast into the block, the 26 has the gearbox mounting points in the sump. The RB25 uses two pressed steel mounts that bolt to the block and gearbox

If you want to confirm the casting numbers they are the 6th, 7th, and 8th numbers in the Part No. ie R33 RB25det part. no. 1104075T00 R33 RB25de part no. 1104075T00 R34 RB20det part no. 11040AA000

Hardly,Boxer was worked to near death, then sent to the knackers yard

Boxer said "If Comrade Napoleon says it, it must be right", and you know who you are Comrade.

This thread is a Re-Release of George Orwell's "Animal Farm" starring all the usual suspects.

also R33 & R34 de and det blocks are all 75T blocks. R33 GT4 uses a 23U block it doesn't need the lower gearbox mounts.

If it ain't broke don't fix it. just about covers it.

R33....RB25DE ...75T

This is a consult port This is a consult cable Buy a cable and you don't need hope, you don't need to remove the piston through the sump, just plug it in and start diagnosis like a real human.

Yes, its a RB20det ECU out of a HCR32 (R32 GTST)

Hey mate I have the R33 engine manual on PDF has all the RB20 / RB25 / RB26 ecu pinouts and the component wiring diagrams ( no colour wiring unfortunately ) if you want it I can pm it to you.

Google would be your friend here brother, try this vid How to SUPER CLEAN your Engine Bay , The guy is annoying but knows his stuff.

Nissan put the consult port in for shits and giggles, we all know that.

His cruise control is working so fuse is intact, the installation is interfering with inputs to his ECU or TCU hence why diagnostics should start with consult, then you have a starting point and NOT a guessing point

Have it checked for fault codes, not all fault codes will throw a MIL.

My mate called me round to look at his N/A stagea it started blowing white smoke. He swears it didn't overheat. It has the Y shaped intake runners which stretch right over both valve covers, I removed this to make it easier to remove the igniters and plugs for a compression test. When the throttle body and runners were removed there was a large amount of coolant in the plenum. Dried this off and conducted compression test all cylinders were good. The engine idles fine and drives fine, I'm thinking IAC valve coolant chamber failure or throttle body coolant pipe failure. ANYONE come across either of these failing before. Intelligent suggestions would be much appreciated (and yes I can bypass them) i'm looking for past experiences. Thanks in advance.

As long as the ECU and TCU are for a RE4R03A then you will need a speedo drive of the correct ratio to match your Diff the correct wiring loom and probably a dropping resister. Hopefully the Throttle position sensor for the CVT will be the same. If not one of those too.

No, the TCU's are matched to car and ECU and box, been down this road. But hey you don't need to believe me, just keep asking the same question a different way and somebody will give you the answer you want to hear.

No unfortunately not, there is a seperate TCU (transmission control unit) required for the Jatco RE4R03A and the TCU HAS to match the ECU. A Gloria set would of course work.

If its a VG30 you could convert to a RE4R03A out of a 300ZX, big job and would probably need ZX ECU and matching TCU. You will need a big pair of hairy nuts and staying power.
